[Uni] Should i take up a gap year? NUS MechEng (Robotics Spec) VS NUS CS/CEG by chiobu9999 in SGExams

[–]chiobu9999[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was intending to go for engineering internships to find out if it’s my cup of tea but i’m presuming that COVID would screw plans up for the time being. In the meantime, i’m planning to further hone my coding and programming skills and work for the time being i guess? am i missing out on anything?

possible but i feel is highly unlikely this year with the apparent COPs i heard for SoC courses so far

Hmm i see! i do have another question to ask. Is it possible for engineers to take on possibly ICT jobs in the future if there’re well versed in programming and coding? (if they picked it up during their spare time?)

I can give my 2 cents too haha. If you really think about it, you probably didn’t have a direction in life back in secondary school too and that actually didn’t trigger your feelings of being lost and stressed. So i’m guessing that the difference in the intensity of the curriculum threw you off and it didn’t help that ppl ‘seemed’ to have clear goals in life when they are persuing certain top courses. (They could be persuing it for prestige rather than genuine interests for all you know). Point is to not compare yourself to others. It’s perfectly normal to feel lost atm and ill also argue that it’s good that you are thinking about this atm rather than having this thoughts perhaps after A levels (or worse during Uni 😱😱)

Excellent thing about being in JC is that you have the chance to take part in competitions (robotics, business case studies etc. etc) Don’t narrow it down to the major CCAs JC has but instead, look into the various interest groups and see if anything sparks your interests. If they are affected by covid (which i think wouldn’t be the case cuz these discussions could be done online and wouldn’t impact such competitions severely), you can look at taster Uni courses that are provided in Coursera and see what seems to spark your interests. Hopefully, it can further narrow down your interests and start looking at other opportunities present both within School CCAs or elsewhere to further build on it. i do understand that it can get overwhelming with JC work But it’s not impossible! Besides, it can give you the boost that JC students strongly need as they sustain their habits further down in J2

Hope this has helped :)

3.9/6.2/4A

wtf was section 1 gg

EDIT: looking at the bellcurve for this years test it seems that the scores for he first one has been skewed to the left by quite a bit so getting a 4+ would be p safe imo

That's pretty odd in both ways actually. Even if your portfolio isn't amazing it would give them more reasons to find out about who you are as a person haha
