Hmm.. hard depends on u.. If you're good in maths then it's not a problem.. No la.. not test almost everyday.. but utar is like sometimes very free sometime from week 5 - week 10 each week got 1 test.. something like that.. typical uni life i guess?

UTAR is de only choice 4 me if i wanna do act science n i ll hv 2 wait 4 de nex intake .... haizz.. long time to go ....

de lecturers 4 act science in Utar r experienced??
ppl often said UTAR isnt a quality uni ....
dat really hurts especially wen i noe i got no choice but goin 2 UTAR ..
*
hmm this is rather subjective.. i've studied for 1 year ++ in UTAR.. and i must say that, not all is bad, some are very good at teaching! Any school also there'll be a bad lecturer, even my friend studying in Aus monash, also he said some of the lecturer there very boring/monotone when teaching. My friend say the teacher quite ok 1.. Dun scared, as long as you have the passion, math is easy..

QUOTE(danieltan @ Aug 15 2008, 12:07 AM)
i heard from UTAR president say that UTAR compare with other University the fees is more cheaper
*
utar is cheapest around i think.. but i heard la, the fees is increasing each year.. is that true? when i enter foundation that time, my fees was 7k altogether, and i heard before this its around 3-4k.. dunno whether real or not hmm.gif

yes..high tech is the word..LOL...anyways, I think i remember carlson told us that they are moving the equipment from our setapak campus, lil' by lil' already -- to the new campus in kampar.

oh btw...congrats to those who have got their desired fyp supervisor. hehe..just to share...i've got mine too -- dr. soon! damn, she's one good one!
(and just to add, yes, dr. anthony is a great lecturer...i enjoy studying phytochem under him as he doesn't teach from the slides. He made stories and is really interesting ... of course, there are some time when he's not...but generally he's a good lecturer!

as for dr. ramani...ah....i never fancy her teaching style. hehee...)

Hey guys,

I am torn between choices to go INTI-UC and UTAR Kampar for Biotechnology. INTI fees are almost RM20k higher ( RM 51000 vs RM 30000+ ). I heard INTI has very good co-curicular activities and excellent studying place. UTAR, well I heard alot of stories and myself quite doubtful about the quality of education. Please enlighten me.
1. The facilities (basketball court,badminton court, pool/snooker, cafe etc)
2. Learning facilities (ICT lab, science labs etc)
3. People (very stereotypic such as existance of language orientated groups or races)
*
let me try.. Biotech should be in kampar campus.. Not much entertainment, there's some hypermarket, still building..

1. At kampar have UTAR sports complex, so i think should have those normal facilities..
2. Lab is okay, ICT will still be new since kampar is a new campus.
3. Mostly is chinese speaking community, if you are english speaking(banana), like me, you'll be left behind. Not that they don't make fren with you, but mostly you don't understand when they are talking and etc, sometimes make u feel discomfort as if u don't belong there. Other races mix well, but they usually still grouped themselves. Indian with indian gang, chinese etc... very less malay students.

Well, if the fees is affordable for you.. Why don't you go to INTI, since you think inti is better. I tot INTI got a lot of niggas? sweat.gif

hope can help..

hmm im an indian n well i f no probs till now though yes many choose to speak in chinese..so u can be left out if u do not speak chinese..but qll my frens r chinese n i f no problem mixing around with them..on facilities wise-i would say mediocre..on quality-well i think UTAR'S education quality is pretty high since we dont have cases of bribery 4 passing (as far s i know), n plus our exams r tough..but if u can afford inti,then why not go there..

couldn't agree more cool.gif then after this nonit go her class d.. yay! at least give scope ma.. haiz.. so many things.. depends on luck la final cry.gif if come out the thing that i dont know.. then i just smile.gif lo.. laugh.gif

Thanks alot for the feedback!
Because since theres virtually no entertainment, I would rather immerse myself into co-curicular activities. If UTAR has that then it would be my choice, who doesn't wanna save $$? Still got accomodation to pay.  mad.gif

Anyone doing this course? I dumped Biotechnology  tongue.gif for BSc. Chemical Engineering. If anyone does, can tell me about the requirements? Thanks!!

requirement to enter biotech ah? u STPM student? then i don't know the requirement.. hehehe

No, I want to study Chem Eng. instead of Biotechnology. Yeah I'm a STPM student. The application form guideline says this

STPM Student Entry Requirements BSc. Chem. Eng.

Minimum 2 principal passes including one Science subject or Maths

A-Levels

Minimum 2 principal passes including one Science subject and Maths

The AND / OR is alot of difference. I didn't fully pass my maths.  cry.gif
