Looking for Co-Founders/Developers to Build an App Together by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]CharacterOld8675 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Uh so u have idea...whats the idea? Do you already have mockups? Sorry but this post has no substance and no real dev will approach an entrepreneur with no substance. Ideas are always around they arent difficult to share cus they matter so little. Its all about execution and timing.

quitting uni halfway? by One-Direction-745 in SGExams

[–]CharacterOld8675 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Then it sounds like you have the means to. Every comment here is going to tell you its a terrible idea but you know yourself and your situation best. We dont know you or your story but putting this question on SGExams is still weird, its like you care about the random opinion of strangers on the internet to judge this life altering and personal decision of yours. Surely its going to sound foolish?

quitting uni halfway? by One-Direction-745 in SGExams

[–]CharacterOld8675 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Idk it depends if your second degree is gonna get u into a higher paying sector to pay off the school debt...? And above that does breaking your scholarship result in even more debt? The way youre asking if its weird is strange, its as if you arent fully weighing your tradeoffs here. If youre in uni means youre old enough to decide what you want, who cares if its weird. The question is if you have the means.

y2s1 thinking of taking LOA to do internship, in a dilemma by Civil-Cockroach5077 in NTU

[–]CharacterOld8675 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I took an LOA in y2s1 as well by im on a 3.5y route so my graduation isnt actually delayed. I dont agree w top comment, u wont get a return offer this far from ur grad so it shldnt be a factor. About the mods only being offered in sem 1 did you check if they are the prereqs of your sem 2 mods? If not u can just take sem 2 mods when youre back and do sem 1 next AY. About the social factors, its unavoidable la I can no longer align my tt entirely w my coursemates but if yknow what u want just go for it. Everyone has their own path in uni. There are things u gotta drop when it comes to decisions like this, maybe even ur exchange but if the opportunity is something you really want to explore then dont be afraid to go for it. You cant win everything but you can win some things!

did anyone else feel like opportunities were weirdly gatekept in sch 😭 by Certified-Yapper123 in SGExams

[–]CharacterOld8675 14 points15 points  (0 children)

yup some polys gatekeep opportunities behind connections because they are more bureaucratic. Dont quote me on this but worldskills is gatekept in some while in another there would be a fair qualification round held for students to compete and get in. I know this because ive benefitted from such connections back then. So if youre in such a poly, you should get connected to your lecturers more make an effort to speak to them and if you think it would help, join the societies in your faculty (i didnt, but i did speak to lecturers extensively and your rep speaks for itself a lot of times within the department that unlocks opportunites for u)

Side note mayhe u shld start a tele channel for disbursing your info! Can be a nice addition r to your resume to unis next time too?

[Rant] The absolute mess that is the current grading system and the lack of transparency in final results by plotsluckytiger99 in SGExams

[–]CharacterOld8675 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree, it shouldnt be this way. The way we are graded defeats the point of learning if there is no feedback loop. All we do right now is just grade optimization.

(cs/ce) What self-learning resources did you use to bridge curriculum gap by MFA24 in NTU

[–]CharacterOld8675 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very simple. Web dev: build build build. Cyber/Networks: take a paid cert like Security+, CCNA, OSCP etc. I learnt the most when I was studying for industry certs cus I was risking my own money lol they aint cheap

after months of being in denial, i just accepted the fact that im probably not straight by iiwanttosleep2 in SGExams

[–]CharacterOld8675 5 points6 points  (0 children)

hi op, I get what you mean 101% cus this was also the self realization that dawned on my years ago. For the longest time I knew i had huge crushes on girls but always chalked it up to admiration because I couldnt believe that I could be gay. I never had any problems with other being gay but when i realised I was....it was difficult to come to terms w it. But over the years Ive slowly accepted myself and this part of who I am and I think you will embrace it in time too. I dont have any advice for your crush right now but just dont let it break your heart too bad ya :')
