I got outbidded for Understanding the Universe.Originally posted by deathscythe99:Sounds good...
So in the end, here's my module list:
ME Core modules:
Engineering Professionalism EG1415
Mechanical Systems Design ME3102
Aero technical elective:
Compressible and Unsteady Flow ME3231
SARTOR/Breadth module:
Principles of Econs EC1301
Science GEM:
Computational Methods in Basic Finance GEK2507
UEM:
General Biology LSM1301
So I'm gonna clear the GEM, breadth and SARTOR requirements at one go this semester.
Then I'll be left with 2x FYP modules, 4x technical electives, and 1x UEM in my final year.

btw genes and society is another easy module

But not for those with poor memory skills and no background of Biology.Originally posted by hisoka:btw genes and society is another easy module
I have both.
But heck, I took it two semesters ago and got A-. No regrets. -
I was contemplating my Arts GEM module...got outbidded for like 4 rounds, finally got it (and if i dun i cant get to grad... cos I having minor).Originally posted by fudgester:I got outbidded for Understanding the Universe.

Stupidest thing is as a minor student u are not protected! I've to bid in Round 2A with my GENERAL account points and that's insane when bids rise to a minimum of 450 pts (and it goes skyward).
Haiz....Write in no use, next sem I gonna bang table liaos. -
I only have 900+ points in my general account. And the halfway through the bidding for Understanding the Universe, the minimum bid shot up to 800 points.Originally posted by deathscythe99:I was contemplating my Arts GEM module...got outbidded for like 4 rounds, finally got it (and if i dun i cant get to grad... cos I having minor).

The admin just doesn't seem to realise that we engineers have too many useless Prog account points (which are only useful for the Sartor mods) and too few valuable Gen account points (which we need for a lot of other non-Engin mods).

We aint expected to go garang against those with 1000+ pts in their 2nd yearOriginally posted by fudgester:I only have 900+ points in my general account. And the halfway through the bidding for Understanding the Universe, the minimum bid shot up to 800 points.

We aint expected to do those mods which they wan to 'protect' their own people? Hmms...
Prog accts is for Sartor in 1st yr, some of our own internal lab biddings (which is for Rd 1 and touches only those within e fac/dept) and maybe our electives.
And seriously speaking, everyone WITHIN the engine fac has more or less e same amt of Prog acct pts....Geez...
If I have 350 Gen pts every semester, i aint complaining... -
the point is even if you store power for most of 4 yeaars, your general account still loses to the art or science year 1 student if i not wrongOriginally posted by deathscythe99:We aint expected to go garang against those with 1000+ pts in their 2nd year

Sci Gen acct adds about 400 pts to them every semester...think arts more....anyone to confirm?Originally posted by hisoka:the point is even if you store power for most of 4 yeaars, your general account still loses to the art or science year 1 student if i not wrong

i think arts is 700Originally posted by deathscythe99:Sci Gen acct adds about 400 pts to them every semester...think arts more....anyone to confirm? -
The only time when I had to show hand with Prog account points was for my first SARTOR module, Management and Organization MNO1001. I had to toss 1000 points into the inferno.
Otherwise, for every single other time where I had to use the Programme account, one point was sufficient to get my modules.
So now I have over 3900++ points in the Programme account, and just 300++ points in the General account, even though I'm already in Sem 6.
Sheesh... when will it ever get into their heads that we need more General Account points? Lots of people have been sending feedback to them regarding this. -
I like bid big big to scare off potential competitors

Guess who?
