Ok, looking through the Chemical Engineering Department Staff's pages now....
Scanning the chicky name..

LOL, you did..
Haha..

I did and failed, too. But surprisingly, found there are TWO Professors in that Department. Hey, M3 got none...

Sorry, typo..

It's |z+w|..

My bad my bad..

I don't think so.
But you can always get exchanged to the other Nottingham campus as long as the course in offer is available there as well.

We do receive newsletters about the activities of U21 though..

Any idea if there's other language classes to be signed up for except English and Malay?
German, Italian, Japanese etc.

Hey, anyone knows if there's car renting service around?
Intends to drive to somewhere far, paise to borrow car from friends..

How's the rate?

Everything good, except the food.

But everything being good would require an astronomical tuition fee.

Yes, postgraduate only though.

Compare with Broga and Semenyih, the food inside is bad lo..
And you all are saying last time is even worse. Well, out of my imagination!

On-campus.

Please read back few posts where I have talked about the difference between on- and off-campus briefly.

Wah, how you *seems that*?
Well, if you are expecting something like DC++ or a community shared network within the campus, it is to my knowledge that such thing does not exist.
Also, you need to take note that internet in hostel costs. That simply means you are given a reasonable speed at a reasonable price.
It's about RM60+ per month for a 512kbps connection.
Downloading has been alright to me but torrent is blocked.

Many students here who are not heavy downloaders prefer to use the free WiFi network (available in everywhere in the campus except the hostel!) or the university computer. Speed has been decent for facebook, ebuddy etc. but surely no downloading stories.

As mentioned earlier, speed is 512kbps for RM60+ per month.
You need to consider if that's fast or slow for you.

Rapidshare is doing quite good for the SNS connection with me managing to max out my download speed.
You need to understand that the IP is shared among students using SNS and rapidshare restricts 1 download to 1 IP with 15 minutes cooldown.
You may need to consider a Premium Account for this as i find myself a lot of times unable to download using rapidshare at peak hours like 8-12am etc.

I am not sure if the IP is static or not, that isn't important to me.

Yes, I can get 60KB/s of download speed by rapidshare.

Megaupload was once very slow but I do not know why it has been very good now.
Mediafire did well but not sure about now.

I guess worse.
Without a car, you are basically being prisoned in the campus.
Eat play study sleep all in the campus.

Semenyih town is about 5 minutes drive from the campus.

LOL, I just saw a car full of people with badminton racket arriving at the sports complex sharp at 11pm last night.

Well, 12am la..
11pm too early.
After dinner go play also about 9pm liao..

After dinner plus rest la, probably.

Toughness is inversely proportional to the strength of your mind.
In short, it's about your mindset. Nothing is tough if you say it's not.

But, quite subjectively, I will still regard the course (Year 1 so far) as vigorous.
It aims to produce a graduate that is equipped with grounding knowledge of Mechanical Engineering as well as providing some extra skills.
We learn Pro|E (instead of Auto Cad, Solid Work etc.) which is a CAD software inclined more towards to Mechanical Engineer
We are introduced on programming so that we can use MATLAB for numerical analysis. For CFD, FLUENT is to be used as well (that's Year 3 anyway..).
I am not sure how well the other universities prepare their mechanical graduates on doing jobs on computers but I believe Nottingham sets a high bar on it.
Perhaps, that's what make Nottingham has a better reputation and also more expensive.
I don't think, other than Monash, there will be a university in Malaysia that can provide that large variety of softwares.

Want to ask senior, average 81% means good or not.
I just got my 1st sem result today and I got too surprised for such score.
I was told 1st class is very tough, but this mark seems to be showing otherwise as long as I maintain.
Will 1st class change its threshold if too many of them cross over the 70%?

My friends is even better, getting around 87%..
Is it normal for 1st year student to do like this?

I am aware that 1st year mark doesn't contribute to finals, but it does give some indication I guess.

Registration fee is when you register as a student. Your outcome of being admitted comes way before that.

There is NO application incurred for potential students, unlike other universities.

Basically, you start off with inquiries.
Then you proceed to a formal application.
Later, you choose to accept or reject offer.
Last but not least, you pay and register as a student.

Just go to the website and email admission office with your result.
They should inform you if your result is eligible for the course you apply or not.
If they give you good news, then it's time for you to get the application form and send it to the admission office so that they can process your application officially.
Then offer letter is given out, then you struggle to accept it or not..
Do note that for undergraduate (and postgraduate, too) application, you need to have a reference letter and personal statement (personal statement applies for foundation students, too.).
