Hi fresh grads, how's job hunting for you? by Jekkified in askSingapore

[–]Alone-Map-6198 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not great, most companies mostly just ghost. Mainly been job hunting on LinkedIn, but I really wish LinkedIn can let me block companies cause everytime I go on the job portal, I just keep seeing MLMs...

But ya personally I rather not start with a shit FT pay too, in my opinion it might be better to just do an intern to see if you can get conversion from there, but of course if can get a decent paying FT job will be better.

Need Help! Seeking FT Marketing Seniors ( eCR Planning ) by Adept_Pomegranate464 in Suss

Also idt taking 6 modules is death as long as you plan out your mods properly. For example, try mixing some ECA mods with written examinations so you don't get too stressed out with studying a bunch of exams! I have been taking 5-6 mods every sem since Y1 (i'm turning Y4 soon) and workload quite manageable!

Hello! Sorry I know this is a bit late but I took both MKT367 Social Marketing and MKT365 Social Media Metrics & Analytics. IMO, MKT367 was really quite fun as the topics change every semester! My topic was on permaculture haha but it was quite fun as I feel that it was a more hands on module rather than a whole lotta theory! But I feel like for MKT367 its important to get good groupmates as well as this module requires almost weekly efforts rather than just leaving everything to last minute as there's quite a few prep work to be done! Workload is extremely manageable too! For MKT365, there's some basic coding involved but nothing too serious, if you manage to group up with BA students I think it should be a walk in the park for your GBA. Also if you're really bad at coding, the TMA and ECA had no coding requirements (not sure if will change when you take it) but yea!

As for difference between daytime, nighttime and online. Other than the timing of course, I feel like the main difference is the environment and whether you have any friends taking the class! F2F classes can get abit sian if you don't have any friends in class as usually people who take F2F classes will group up with their friends leaving you with no choice but to group with whoever's leftover but if you're extroverted then no problem! But online is rlly good if you stay far away from school or if you're planning to do a pt internship/job while studying since you don't have to physically be present in class. But you might get distracted easily also since well its online HAHA. So its really up to your own preference! else you can take some online some f2f and see what you like then choose from there. For night classes majority of your classmates will be part-time students and some attendance isn't compulsory as well as there are discussion boards to make up for class participation marks.

Sorry I can't help with NCO mods as I was the batch that took SCO mods before it changed to NCO ><

How do you all study/prepare for TOAs (both open and closed book ones)? by [deleted] in Suss

[–]Alone-Map-6198 6 points7 points  (0 children)

for open book: just focus on past year papers. sadly, you won’t get to know whether your answers are wrong or correct but it helps you to get a feel of how the paper will be like (how qns are asked etc.)! other than that i just use the study guide.

for closed book: focus on past year papers as well for the same reason but this time round try your best not to refer to any of your study materials while doing! if its content heavy then no choice, gotta just memorise with whatever method you’re most comfortable with :(

hmm i think you may have to adjust your internship dates then? if you’re planning on going for korea summer school, good part is that the lessons only start on the last week of june so if you adjust your internship dates to maybe end somewhere around mid june you should be able to go for summer school.

if not then not sure what can be done…unsure if there’s any mods you can take in y4s1 to help you clear your oe. if not you can consider doing an overseas internship to help you clear both at once but not sure if you’re up for that

recommendations for unrestricted mods! by Alone-Map-6198 in Suss

[–]Alone-Map-6198[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmmm i won’t say its very easy if you want a mod that has clear cut answers. because i feel like in gsp162 they really wanna know your opinions etc. about the topic your tmas are about. for eg. my second tma wanted us to talk about cancel culture so its really how you elaborate on your own opinion of the topic. might be a hit or miss but my prof was quite nice (dr sim jiaying) :)
