As a matter of fact, I do. Since UPU offered me with diploma in civil engineering at UMP.

Very well then.
This year they released a new system whereby final year diplomas can get a direct entry right after you finished the internship. So while others are waiting for UPU and enroll in Sept (degree), you are already studying your degree syllabus in February.

But if I'm not mistaken you are not allowed to do another UPU application if you chose this. Not very sure with this but its written in the announcement that way. We are seeing how our seniors deal with this first since they are the first batch.

Hmm, that's kinda great news. So, I would be joining seniors of SPM 2010 leavers if I perform well and skip to year 2 of my degree... Here's the catch, since I might not be able to apply for UPU, does it mean that I'm unable to apply for credit transfer if I wish to further my studies at other institutions eg. UTM, UPM, USM ?

First of all, nice rig you got there
but just an advice, HAF 922 with those hardwares in it is way too bulky and heavy to carry around.
Getting a laptop is really recommended as already explained by Clon.

3 years old but its still running strong, so no worries

Lenovo are very well known for best bang for buck but I more keen towards the aftersales warranty service, hence i went to Dell with their top notch warranty services

Avoid low end laptops with i3 if you one of the speed demons like me
I not sure hows the gap between i3 and i5 during autocad and solidworks, since i'm using i7 all the time
But I can tell you that theres a very huge difference when rendering videos.


yep gaming laptops are not tat weight friendly
i did not bring my desktop to ump though, i left it at hometown for my brother

Thanks. I'm transitioning to a Storm Scout 2 in the coming few weeks btw. So, portability won't be that much of a problem compared to the HAF.

I'm more of a best bang for the buck kinda guy but I'll take a look at the one's from Dell. I'm a speed demon too Could already make out the difference of 0.5Ghz after all these years of heavy computing.

Since I'm going to have a short semester as Sem 0, I'll be holding myself back from any laptop but talking about weight issues, do you think an ultrabook is enough for documents, presentation ect?

But Storm scout 2 is still a mid tower, portability still couldnt compare to those ITX case which just sized like a box

yes of coz, ultrabook is way powerful to do those thing, but the down part is ultrabook doesnt come cheap.
you dont really require to bring laptop all the times walking around uni / to class.
just about once a while

Sem 0 is kind of giving freshies some time to get used with the uni environment, which only 4 credit hours if i not mistaken. thus u'll have plenty of free time after the class, spend it gaming wisely, do make good friend with fellas from kuantan and ask them to bring jalan jalan around kuantan, and most probably you'll might need their help in future

Changing to an ITX case means that I'll have to get some new hardware, kinda reluctant to do so though
And, thanks for the tip, I'll be spending sem 0 as wisely as possible And FYI, I'm not a heavy gamer, more of an editor(video).

how was the race in front of kk2?

you mean the illegal drag race ?

hey guys, got upu result last week, im going to ump pekan for my degree!
so i just wanna knw more about d accomodations there and anything i need to bring?
thanks in advance!!

if you're studying in Pekan it means that you're going to stay at KK5, you do not need to bring your broadband if you wanna save money, each of us will be given the LAN cable, it's nice here, even though it's secluded but no matter, we have UMP sharing haha new movies will be updated here,usually, and you can download it, so that you won't spend your days cooking eggs on your head. I've attached a link pics of UMP pekan including the accommodation, but that was years ago, now much better though.

looks awesome, cant wait to see it myself! few more questions!
since pekan campus still new, is d sport complex fully equiped??
wat to do after registration??

thanks again!!

well unfortunately there's no sport complex at Pekan campus, future maybe haha but there's one at Gambang campus. well at pekan we have futsal court,basketball court, volley ball,kayak,pool table,table tennis and there's one enormous dataran which you can basically play whatever you want, but I don't think you can play badminton,there's no dewan,and the wind is very strong, (very2 near the beach)
after registration, you will be going to your room of course then refer to your time table, your orientation should start in the evening (if i were you, I will skip orientation seriously) shhh haishh don't listen to me HAHA!

was looking forward to free gym when i masuk uni , and im very interested in d ump sharing thingy, i knw uni wifi cnt play online games, but not even browser games??


i dont think i'll miss d orientation, experience ma~~~~~~

ermm, I don't know much about games, but for sure I did play online games using uni's internet line, but as you can see, if you wanna play games, better use your own line, much faster. what course are you taking btw?

am doing mech eng, my own line means broadband?? n i read somewhr 1st year students live in apartments, then 2nd year onwards in terres??

im sori i hv so many questions, im very excited about getting into uni!

no no no, terraced thingy is at Gambang, you won't be staying there for sure you'll stay at KK5 for your 1st year which I think you've seen the pic of it, then WORK very22 hard for your studies + join ALL activities if you can to stay at KK5 for the sake of your remaining years (collecting merits) if not, you'll be send to 'bazaar muhibbah' or the new KK5 extension dorm, but I advice you to work hard and stay at KK5 (makes your life easier). ahh u're taking mech engineering, haha congratulations nahh you can ask whatever questions you want, I won't mind,it's normal to know more

Ok, i read through all d previous posts ( too boring at work ), im confused about d fees,
do i pay on registration day or wat??
ptptn is after i start degree or b4?
d whole orientation week hv to wear formal with tie?
campus with fast internet is pekan or gambang??

terima kasih manyak manyak to everyone!!

about the fees, you'll pay it at BANK ISLAM BEFORE you enter UMP
bring along your offer letter,
you'll received your PTPTN after you start your degree, a few months after
yes wear formal, but u'll be given baju orientation, depends on what your facilitator ask you to wear
internet fast at Gambang lorr, at Pekan fast at night but when sem break fuyoo enjoy

i meant register ptptn after or b4 i start degree
shld i hv my own transport? my dad considering getting me a car or a motorbike

u oso mechanical rite? ada too much to handle??
