Hey all , Am accepted by USM to study biology, hopefully majoring in animal biology. Was wondering, how are the dorms there? All with fans and not air cond right?

Also, normally the majoring part take part on in the second year right? Or we straightway do so at the start of the first year?

Any replies is appreciated. smile.gif
*
hostels(main campus), some are good, some are not so good... which hostel did u get?
u get air-con in hotel not hostel. tongue.gif

not sure about major and minor stuff (my course doesn't have major and minor) if i'm not mistaken, u will get to choose during second year.

hi I'm also entering USM in sept for mass comm and have a question regarding laptops (it's rather urgent as my dad wants to buy it like ASAP for reasons that I'm unsure of - good offer maybe?)

He wants to get the Dell Inspiron 15 (N5050) for me, I think it's OK except 1 thing - It's 2.5kg. I was envisioning a 3-4 lbs 13-inch or something lighter. Would it be burdensome carrying 2.5kg of laptop around (as i heard usm campus very big, need to do a lot of walking one)?

Thanks~
*
mass com should have laptops, u guys will be doing a lot of presentation and editing stuffs, if i'm not mistaken la. smile.gif

fyi, usm is not really big, u'll know the difference if u had been to other ipta. no need to walk, got buses going around the campus, but sometimes waiting for buses costs u lots of time and at peak hours, need to squeeze yourself onto the bus or wait for the next bus. shakehead.gif

u dont really learn much during 1st year, real learning starts during 2nd year. there's a huge difference between 1st year and 2nd year. construction industry is a tough field, i think one of the purpose is to train and prepare the students mentally or physically for their future job.

in each room for main campus, can I know does each room has its own cupboard to store your clothes? two person share one cupboard or one person one cupboard?

I am assuming each room has a desk, cupboard and bed, is that correct?

oh and also, what do we need setem hasil for ?

Thanks smile.gif
*
yes, or else where u want to keep your things? sweat.gif one person one cupboard.

yes. to be more precise, each person one desk, one cupboard and one bed.

i think u need to prepare 2 for ptptn documents if i'm not mistaken la.

Warning to all USM freshmen:
The part of the freshmen guide that says "X-ray dada boleh dibuat di mana-mana hospital kerajaan" is misleading. Hospitals don't deal with such cases. You have to do it at klinik kesihatan. Happened to me today. So I went from hospital to klinik kesihatan, and I was greeted by "Harap maaf, mesin X-ray sedang diselengara".

i thought x ray will be done in usm? hmm.gif

when u apply for ptptn, u will be asked whether u want to receive WPP or not. if u pick yes, later a letter will be posted to your house. then u take the letter or whatever that is included in the letter, go to the bank that u are asked to collect your money from. understand? hmm.gif

Anyway, it says that we should lapor diri on 8.30 am, 1st of September. We don't have to actually be on time, do we?
