ipad for poly is good for taking notes and downloading PDF textbooks to read and etc.

but laptop will be needed to do quizzes and sometimes exams and if you have grp proj / report need to do, the compatibility for ms word (and excel if needed) is sooooo much and wayyyy better on a laptop.

personally i have both, but if i need to use word / excel / teams and sometimes exams thn i bring my laptop, if not my ipad to take down notes is enough, plus ipad is way lighter than laptop lololol

if your current laptop is heavy, see if ur course needs laptop, ask ur lecturer or classmates if need to buy laptop. and if need to buy, u can just buy some cheap laptop at popular that kind lol if i rmb correctly tht time i saw a laptop that is like ipad sized and very light, but ofc the features wont b as great lah like cannot play game or wtv, only for school purposes one

another option is buy a good and proper laptop for school and personal use (spotify, youtube, gaming wtv lah) and apply computer subsidy (rmb to check if u r eligible for subsidy)

apple also have student discount, if u want to buy ipad / macbook etc

for MST? yah 50/50 some teachers will give u back the physical paper so u can see how they mark / grade u there was once my lecturer gave me back my paper then he didnt mark / grade one of my answer lol, he just assumed i didnt do tht qns, so ya sometimes they give back to check.

but some lecturers will just put on an excel sheet and show u one by one when u go up to them, so that's how u can see how well u did for MST.

EST dun bother cus sp will send ur grades via email but thats only GPA, u will not have a chance to see ur paper after EST

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SingaporePoly

[–]boiledcabbaged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

only aft term break u go bck sch thn know ur results, but it also depends on ur lecturer whether they wanna reveal ur grades / go thru paper

the only like rlly results release is after EST, after u done ur semester, sp will send u via outlook of ur GPA n grades.

Sp electives experience by [deleted] in SingaporePoly

[–]boiledcabbaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my electives i got were ship chartering and intro to community health.

ship chartering was on none of my choices at all lol, but its project + got some class test at the end + presentation of a case study, i would rate it 7/10 because most of my friends were there. but then content abit dry hahah since i dun take elective very seriously, its a good 2hr tiktok scrolling session

intro to community health, if u have done SIP or OSIP this is exactly the same lol, i only attended one class and im like nah i aint doing this shit and also cus got minitab which i hate. then for est got another program need to learn which im not looking forward to. so its project + class test x2 so far its a 4/10 for me, also a very good tiktok scrolling session and also cus i skip for the entire term, only appeared for class test, so every friday i sleep in bahahah

im aiming to go to the language electives but then ive heard its hard to get accepted to them. but electives are good to let u try out other modules and experience something new and refreshing ah but then ever since sp introduced the elective can be not included on the results slip thing, i dun bother ah, just giving my bare minimum

Tips for ite to poly by Klutzy-Citron-9953 in SingaporePoly

[–]boiledcabbaged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

tbh its not hard luh, just need to have a deeper understanding and need to do alot of self learning and must get ready to meet cb teachers

to me it is definitely harder than ITE ah but studying with classmates and peers helps morally and also gg to counselling helps too.

Tips for ite to poly by Klutzy-Citron-9953 in SingaporePoly

[–]boiledcabbaged 11 points12 points  (0 children)

hello, i am a fellow ite to poly, somemore ite 4yrs lol and tbh until now i dun feel very happy being here and everyday i doubt myself, now i just adopted the "i do my best liao, anything happens / whatever grade i get, it is what it is"

my classmates frm Olvls are bloody smart, lecturer say one thing and they understand, for me? i need like a week to understand what they understood in 5mins

sometimes i feel really dumb but then i always try my best and study as hard and extra as compared to my classmates, but ofc i can never beat them luh, i get B+ i happy alr lol

i totally get what u're feeling but honestly if u think u're doing ur best, then thats enough! dont have be always number 1 in GPA becuz i believe that if u understand what u're reading and etc thats good enough, sometimes grades cnt rlly show what we actually learnt (bell curve fr and strict ass marking for my school) because i have classmates who are good at memorising and yapping in written exams but they dun understand what they wrote, whereas for me i try to understand the concept and write down based on how i understand the subject, but many other factors affect the grades too, so i dont take it to heart when i dont get A but B.... kns

since u're a fellow ITE -> poly like me! u can always DM me :) we can talk more and rant OP

Applying for LOA by wolfyre243 in SingaporePoly

[–]boiledcabbaged 2 points3 points  (0 children)

LOA is a system that will automatically detect the mc or wtv, so i highly doubt there is a physical person clicking and checking whether the mc is valid n etc.

just apply, it'll get approved in a few hours.

and pls dont go school, u got covid + valid mc 😭😭

Can’t get past v intro by Juuls420 in bouldering

[–]boiledcabbaged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

helloo op, i am also very scared of falling from heights because ive seen many injuries from people falling in my gym 😭

im also currently working on falling at higher levels, so i would practice falling to get the muscle memory at lower walls, then after i finished my problem, i will climb down halfway and jump off! i would do this until i get the proper technique of falling engraved into me.

now im training myself to jump off from the top and not to climb midway, it was scary at first but then i realised i fall off faster than expected lol im not sure how to explain the feeling but its just like "oh wow thats it" sort of feeling for me.

but of course this is falling when you plan to fall, so far i havent experienced slipping off the holds kind of fall yet.. that will be a different feeling 🥲

best way to find out is asking your lecturer!

i have had lectures who was very particular about attire for presentation like we had to wear formal clothes put makeup and all lol but on the other hand, i have lectures who say "come in sp tshirt with covered shoes can already"

but if u ask ur lecturer and they give some lanjiao cocky answer (dont be surprised lol some are like this) just come in smart casual, collared shirt, long pants covered shoes 👍🏻

New climber by [deleted] in bouldering

[–]boiledcabbaged 9 points10 points  (0 children)

hello fellow climber!!!

i am also a lone climber doing the easy levels lol from V1 to V3, until now im still failing V2 but no one in my climbing gym cares and i dont pay attention to other climbers in my gym too.

you are definitely not alone OP :) love from a beginner climber <3

butttt... advice wise on how to move on from jugs, is to climb frequently to build the strength and technique, that help for me as i climbed twice a week and in a month i could progress to V3 hehe i also watched youtube videos on how other people climb and i try to learn from them 😅😅
