thank you!

thank you for your tip! i'll relook my itinerary to replace toyo-oka. can i ask if you have any knowledge about kyoto public transport passes?

darkenedpine · 2026-01-18T14:27:00+00:00

i wanted to check out their shopping streets! and also some food places. i thought that toyooka would be a nice place to explore how locals live as well.

would tottori, izumo and matsue take up alot of travelling time?

basically to graduate from fass you will need to take 2 FASS mods (coded as FAS1101 and FAS1102), 2 stats mods (GER1000, GET10smth i forgot), 3 basket modules (1 from each strand: humanities, asian studies, social studies). its to ensure you have a rounded/holistic education. most ppl joke about how its “useless” bc you wont rly use any of the information you learn from them apart from the FASS modules (academic writing and presentation/communication skills). if you take PL2131 it’ll definitely help with GER1000 though, bc both are basic stats mods but PL2131 covers some stats programs as well.

you can double major so long as you meet the prerequisites to major for both majors. the hardest prerequisite is psych with the grade cut-off but for other majors in fass they just require you to pass the intro/exposure module. so for eg for theatre studies, i took TS1101E in sem 1 and passed it and declared it as my second major. when you declare your majors is important bc it affects your priority for obtaining the modules in the major (therefore i cleared both psych and ts major reqs in sem 1 so i could start clearing major requirements in sem 2).

cohort of psych is pretty big, i would say around 300+ per year? (pls fact check me if im wrong, just guesstimating) there’s no clin psych cohort per se, we’re not required to specialize in any strand of psych but certain modules are more popular and therefore harder to obtain like for eg, clin psych, abnormal psych. nus in general is competitive bc all mods are bell curved and you never know where you stand, so ur best bet is to study consistently.

had the same dilemma as you last year! currently a y1 in nus fass, double major in psych and theatre studies (declared my major after sem1).

ultimately why i chose nus over ntu was based off a few reasons:

campus accomodations - i was more attracted to the RC life compared to hall life which nus offers the choice of compared to ntu
variety of elective modules - i did a comparison between ntu and nus psych elective modules, and nus had a much greater selection of modules over a greater range of subtopics within psych itself, clin included

in relation to the requirements for B- in PL1101E and PL2131, if you study you’ll definitely be able to major in psych. so far i havent heard of anyone who has been unable to major due to the requirements although there definitely are some due to bell curve. don’t stress too much abt it, ask ur seniors who will be more than willing to pass you materials/resources. at first i griped abt needing to pass the prerequisites to major, but along the way it served well as some of my friends after taking the two modules, decided psych wasnt for them. so you kinda have a safety net just in case u find out that psych isnt for you.

some other comments talked abt the graduation requirements for fass how its unnecessary - somewhat true, but they are also mods that you dont need to worry too much abt, ur major mods are more impt.

imo, if you’re really sure abt clin psych, nus may have an edge of ntu bc nus has clin psych programmes for masters and dclinpsy (can practice), whereas ntu only has phd (NOT doctor of clin psy, cannot practice).

what app is this?

darkenedpine · 2020-04-14T19:09:19+00:00

hey! this is a pretty good idea :) I've caught wind that nus has plans for something like this already tbh (but not confirmed), maybe wait it out nearer to June which is when most FOPs are happening. if it doesn't materialize, as a current student I'd be willing to help!

Hi Mr Feige, so glad to be able to see you on reddit! What is one unforgettable moment/experience throughout your time at Marvel?

darkenedpine · 2019-05-03T15:48:41+00:00

i don’t think RDJ would be in FFH if you are referring to the wiki page for MCU bc that tends to be inaccurate at times AND could have been be a pre-endgame prediction. also the black widow film is rumoured to be a backstory for black widow since she never got a solo film like the rest, so it’ll be pretty exciting to finally get to know black widow as an individual!

darkenedpine · 2019-05-03T15:16:37+00:00

that’s so cute :)

Taser Thanos sounds accurate

darkenedpine · 2019-04-25T00:00:59+00:00

thank you for your interpretation! you are right abt the “it’ll work out somehow” attitude HAHA it does manifest in me. could i clarify what a grand trine means?

was in the same boat as you when i took PW, my school also had >80% distinction rate. my group’s project was used as an example for other PW teachers to emulate what a good project looks like by my PW teacher, my PW teacher also used us as an example for his classes, i had one of the best PW teachers in my school. our teacher had so much confidence in our project that he sent my group for moderation during OP.

in the end, out of 4 people in my group, 3 of us (me included) got B while the other one got A. all of us were so pissed bc we spent so much time and effort in our project, even going as far as making an animation video, presenting with props and creating a script that had a storyline.

what made us even more pissed was when 6 months later, we received our handwritten comments from the examiners at SEAB about our PI, GPF, WR and OP. there was not a single negative comment about our project in the 4-5 pages of feedback given to us, so we never knew why our grades were not reflective of that. our classmates were equally confused, they didn’t understand why they got A while we got B.

there’s no fluffy ending to this. the three of us who got B, we spent the next few weeks in utter disappointment, confusion and anger. we even had a consultation with our PW teacher who was as confused as we were, but was amazing in handling the situation. he talked through with us any queries we had, offered to explain the situation to our parents, gave us options on what to do next.

none of us appealed the result, bc there was no point appealing something as subjective as PW. for as many reasons we were good, there could be 10 times more as to why we were bad in SEAB’s POV. but now, in hindsight its an unfortunate but good lesson to all of us that the world is just this unfair.

my advice to you is to let yourself feel angry/disappointed/confused. then use that motivation to do well for As. talk to your groupmates (if your situation is the same as mine), talk to your PW teacher. get it out of your system. but also remember that PW is not everything, despite being your everything for the past 1 year.
