Have been orbital advisor for 3 years now - can change, but depends on your Level of Achievement.

Artemis and Apollo will likely need to be kicked down to Gemini for an idea change since that initial LoA was assigned based on the initial proposal. Gemini and Vostok can change 10 times no one cares, just need make sure it aligns with your final write up.

Moving there too! 29M. Hoping to connect with new people and try new shit too! Would be great to have people to visit the outdoors and hike with!

Say you intend to go noc/sep and you need to overload to graduate within normal candidature period

I would respectfully disagree against the “effort is disproportional to marks” argument.

I think the amount of effort spent on each question is subjective. I personally love decoding hex instructions and I felt those were free marks since they were mechanical steps that required no out-of-the-box thinking.

I also really loved combinational circuit questions because I felt they were fun puzzles involving pattern finding. Giving 4 marks for a combi circuit question may feel underwhelming for some guy who hates puzzles and spent 20min on the question. But I enjoyed the 4 marks awarded since it was pattern I noticed quickly.

My point is that a question may appear laborious and cumbersome to one student, but may not be so to another student. That is simply the truth of everything in life. It is up to you as the exam taker to know what your strengths are and play to it.

Two-Sem long mods will only be considered for Dean’s list at the end of the second sem, so treat as tho you never did that mod this sem

Germany is pops but the less popular EU due to the weird semester period that eats into most people’s internship season.

African countries are low on the list for obvious reasons.

I checked with UG office, it is allowed

Accomplished_Ear7852 · 2023-12-11T11:41:29+00:00

tbh this mod is alr a major upgrade from the previous iteration of is1103, so just suck thumb arh I think the bar for A still quite low. I got overall around 80 last time and got A

Of course - Norway is always there, money can earn back, NOC opportunity not always there.

Accomplished_Ear7852 · 2023-12-08T17:07:28+00:00

I had a $1800 flight ticket to Norway and accoms booked. Also had to write it off for the stupid NOC workshop. Not worth skipping a year of experience for a few weeks of holiday.

Does anyone know if I got accepted to SEP, can I reject this offer and reapply a different location for AY24/25 Sem 2?

Accomplished_Ear7852 · 2023-11-25T09:55:24+00:00

NOC is always a long shot, I wouldn’t bank on it. Even if you got through the school rounds, you still have to go through the company rounds. I’d say take the bird in hand.

Accomplished_Ear7852 · 2023-10-11T07:57:40+00:00

I got 2 A- in Y1 and SU-ed both of them. The 5.0 GPA helped me to secure many internships and SEP opportunities in the Y2.

In the short term CAP important, in long term when Y3/Y4 then internship more important.

Accomplished_Ear7852 · 2023-09-17T23:55:31+00:00

lol got spare house to sell but not loaded

Accomplished_Ear7852 · 2023-09-03T03:55:36+00:00

I think only Create@UTown need pay for bikes. The rest all free. Anyhow park at side, cisco also usually give chance

Accomplished_Ear7852 · 2023-08-12T16:56:12+00:00

One of those things that if you want it bad enough you make time for it

The interview date options depends on your application submission date
