  Ya, sometimes I get sick of it. But most the time, it is more of tiring than being sick of PBL. That's because you are learning independently. From the different resources that your teachers give you, from what you learn, you have to find a relationship between them and give a coherent answer and answer them in relation to the problem you are given.
  
  It's like in the working world, tons of information are staring at you but you don't know how to deal with them.
  
  As for the jobs or university admission, I can't say more, because our first batch only graduate this year. That's why only 4 polys graduates are surveyed over the job applications, not 5.

  PBL is a very different way to learn as compare to class room environment ...
  
  image changing your learning style which almost all of us have been taught since Pri 1....sudden change is not suitable for all...

  RP have no exams. Just tests. 4 tests per module spread throughout 2 semesters.
  
  Edit: Only 2 modules have no test. They are Creative Engagement (CE) and Professional Profiling (PP)
