3.5 yers? hmm tht shud be better..actually i wouldnt mind even if it was made to 4 years, coz why the rush to graduate,,,at least we'll have more time to explore life as students in a more calmer pace...

yeap true.. life in utar is like.. some period of time very free.. then sometimes busy like hell.. rclxub.gif 3 n a half year would be great, too many core subjects is killing the students.. But i still wonder why in each Uni, there'll be one kind of "gila" student, such as in the test, we felt it's so hard and the marks we get is around 50-70,.. then suddenly come a guy/girl get 98.. lol

Akane, domo arigatoo gozaimasu. (Thanks)

I'm interested in chemical engineering, really hope the current students will give some opinions. I would like to know why people feel UTAR is not a good choice, is it because of

-- UTAR is founded by MCA ?
-- new university ?
-- the lecturers are Malaysian, not mak salleh?
-- facilities no good ?
-- (I heard that many students having problem with English language, that's why it may affect the reputation of Utar)

I think even in the top ranking universities like Harvard, Cambridge or Oxford, not 100% of the lecturers are excellent. I feel the learning attitude of students is most important, we have to give up the spoon feeding habit we used to have in primary/secondary school.

Thanks for sharing.
*
i think because utar is still new? so there's not really a good news to spread yet. Like cambridge or oxford, they are there for very long already.. Of course utar also got their own cons.. Some teacher is not really fluent in english, which is hard when they want to teach/communicate with students. it's no doubt that student may have problem with english, but i dont think it affect the reputation of utar, since other colleges also have lots of student who don't really fluent in english. Facilities is not very good in utar, but it's not bad either. Well, many utarians said, u get wat u paid for.. hehehe

Be prepare for all this, since you are from Biomedic. I have seen Biomedic achieving 39/40 for their coursework. Haha. The competition is always tight there, and like Darren said, some of his friends are STPM top achiever. Lol.
I've been exposed to this before in foundation.. But still feel very terrible when there's a week with 3-4 tests and assignment due date. lol. From what i observed in my course.. It's mostly STPM student score compared to foundation, but in doing presentation n such, foundation student is still the best. Eh, Akane, u study what course?

hahahaha,lol, so true..i have seen such students too..thats what they said genius i guess.. sadly im not in tht category.. but then right results arent everything.. i have seen many who r in the president's list and deans list, who cant speak properly n neither can they think out of the box..They r more like book followers, just memorize everything from the book.
*
But, to memorize the thing u learned in degree.. kinda.. ahahha.. Damn alot of people can't speak properly.. even if lecturers tongue.gif Btw, mostly those top scorers sit at the front row alone, and they are very timid.. hahaha.. i stereotyped biggrin.gif between.. do you guys read from books or just depend solely on the notes given by lecturers? hmm.gif

Btw, i donno how 2 speak mandarin too.. But it doesnt mean that my english is good. Haha, i tried to join chinese school at my place for form 1, but got rejected, because they don't accept student who don't know mandarin.. >_>

I have experienced with lecturers who are damn poor with his/her english.....seriously, It was a hard time for me!!!!!!! ask them one question they will answer you another thing...=.=''' doh.gif

actually I think that students should read from books other than lecture notes but how many of us here really do that?

Well, for my case, from Week 1 to Week7, I would be hardworking enough to read from reference books and make my own notes but after that when midterms and assignment datelines pile up in front of me...finishing the lecture notes has became a great burden to me.....ahaha....so during exam period....stick to lecture notes and u will still do great!!! thumbup.gif
*
Ah.. just trying to really understand all the stuff that's in the lecture notes already took so long.. wonder how to read from reference book if there are 3-4 tests in a week icon_question.gif Well, i think degree is not like foundation.. foundation read lecture notes also can score high tongue.gif

QUOTE(SuN_RaE198 @ Aug 10 2008, 08:27 PM)
laugh.gif cant help but stereotype in this. from what i observe, most of those "top scorers" who sit in the front row come from biomedic. tongue.gif
no offence though. just what i observe. sweat.gif whereas biochemistry will only sit in front when the lecturer is giving hints for midterms and such. laugh.gif
haha. there's some lecturers who are very sought after, but cant speak in english well. doh.gif there was one lecturer who studied in taiwan for many years, if you can ask her in mandarin, she's very pro, but if you ask in english, chances are it will take a longer time for her to answer. biggrin.gif
*
Lol.. mostly those form 6 that take biomedic (no offense) are study freak.. Ah.. mostly foundation will sit behind (my batch) and talking to each other or listening to songs.. or plainly study other subject or do report.. lol

p/s : my class actually got scolded by Dr Ramani before.. she's scolding somebody that sit at the behind rows. I don't know what she's scolding because i was sleeping or listening 2 songs tongue.gif Any other classes experienced this? She may look kind at first, until she scold people.. looks kinda scary

She is not the best lecturer, but definitely not the worst also. You have yet to see some very "cincai" lecturer yet. Hahaha. But I guess, the chances of Biotech student meeting her is very low. Lol.

Ahh.. i've experienced one of the worst.. she's the part time lecturer from GMI, not sure tho.. her england very powderful.. lol she teaches us structural biochemistry y1s1.. Haiz.. at first is Dr Chew taught us, dunno why change during week 7.. Some more people say structural biochem is killer subject doh.gif

I need help in clarifying something thou,

I got hold of my application form for utar yesterday from my godsis.

I was planning to apply for Pyschology in Kampar but in the application form,it lets you apply for more courses example like first choice,2nd choice and so on.But the problem is I wanted pyschology only.Can I just put the course as the first choice and leave the others blank?And is there any possibilities that utar can send me to other campus?
*
i think if your result is good, they will straight away give u ur 1st choice 1.. so i think better put..

I'm looking forward to join degree year 2 of Communications and Networking.

Thanks in advance.
