AY 21/22 Y4S1 Review

Took 4 MPEs this semester, with a total of 12 AUs only, which should be very manageable right, considering the fact that I took 21 AUs back in year 1, but omg, I don't know why it didn't feel any easier 🙃 Maybe it's because I'm getting older and my brain isn't as competent anymore or something HAHAH  Side note: ended up writing quite a long review again this sem hahah & I can't seem to find good reviews for the mods I've taken this sem, so really hope my review helps! :) CM4012 - Structural Determination | CORE | 3AU | B+ Part 1 (50%):   4 Homeworks (5 marks each, 20%): 20/20 Quiz 1 (10%): 8/10 Quiz 2 (20%): 16/20 Part 2 (50%): 5 Online Quizzes (5%) 5 Pre-tutorials (10%) 5 Reflections (10%) Midterm (25%): 39/60 [Average: ~36/60] Part 1 was conducted via recorded PowerPoint slides which was quite annoying as you cannot speed it up.  Also, the prof only uploaded the slides without annotations (after a few weeks) as some students feedbacked to him, but I h...

AY20/21 Y3S1 Review

This semester had a shift in assessment weightage.  CORE modules weightage in past semesters had been 40% CA and 60% Finals, but this semester was 60% CA and 40% Finals.  To me, it has its pros and cons.  Pros are that studying for finals was not as stressful as the 60% CA has more or less determined your grade.  Cons are that the workload during the semester increased with many graded assignments/homework which I was not used to so that definitely increased the level of stress for me.  Overall, I would say this semester was okay because the CORE mods I took was not the difficult ones, I am expecting my GPA to increase slightly (results ain't out yet)  so that it can cushion the potential drop in my GPA next sem.  Because I have to take the difficult mods next sem which means my grades are likely to plummet 🙃   I also joined a new CCA with quite a high commitment level, so I hope I will be able to manage both my studies and CCA well  🤞 🙏💪...

So, I underloaded the last sem due to a rather unsuccessful course registration that messed up my plans lol so I ended up taking only 15AUs.  BUT, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, because the mods I took this sem were quite content-heavy/heavy workload.  Will underloading manage to pull up my GPA?  I don't think so, but at least it won't drop significantly (I hope) hahah 😂 Oh and because my friends and I took different combinations of yr3 mods last sem, so we went into this sem with tips from the last sem.  Thus, in a way, we are better prepared to tackle the content which is awesome 😉 Oh, & I'm playing around with the blog themes so don't be surprised that the blog will look different from time to time lol Side note: I somehow ended up writing a super long review this sem idk why hahah CM3021 - Organometallic Chemistry | CORE | 3AU | A 5 Online Quizzes, 5 MCQs each (5%): 5% 6 Pre-Tutorial & Tutorial (10%) 5 Reflections (10%) Midterm 1 (25%): 40/...
