pls log-in to edit this entry to input ur name ok. dont just tag the board!
and if u guys wanna change mod and tutorial group during the add/drop period, it's OBVIOUS WHICH ONE TO CHANGE TO (ahem 205, T1!!)
LOL.



anyway, after bugging ziliang and chunleen, this is what i know for CS peeps:

-upon matriculation, you'll be auto-assigned your CORE modules. cohort is divided into 2 (COM 204 and 205) and further divided into T1-T6

-you can log in to STARS PLANNER to start ur strategic planning for your schedule. you still need to take about 3 other non-core modules to fulfill AUs for 1 semester (for a well-balanced sem)
as for now, only planning is possible. and saving the plans (got space for 3 plans).

-at stars planner, you should see 13 blank columns on the left of the screen. pls rmb to input COM201 COM203 and COM204/205 as they are your core modules. after that, go pick the modules that you're interested in. and then click PLAN to generate a timetable.

-on the next page, select the timeslot that has alr been assigned to you upon matriculation for your CORE(like mine. COM205 T1 the index no is 06012) if you're okay with the allocation and u wanna keep the allocation. so click everything of your core modules first. anything that clashes with your core modules, you obviously cant take. there're diff timeslots for each modules (usually) so you can trial and error. once you get the so-called 'perfect' timetable, save it as your plan 1,2,3.

-saving the plans will save time. so during the add/drop period, its when the first-come-first-serve thing starts, you can click ADD SUBJECTS TO STARS to submit. faster. add/drop period, FYI, is from 7AUG 930am. please leave your com on thruout the night. LOL. jk.

-ziliang said not to rely on waiting list to get your desired module. no use.

-if you guys wanna switch COM204 to COM205 or vice versa, can do a mutual swop by finding someone who has been allocated the one you wanted. switch done during add/drop period too.

-there's this requirement everyone needs to fulfill throughout your 4yrs in NTU. that is to complete:
3AUs from HSS as GER
3AUs from BM as GER
9AUs from STS as GER
37AUS as UE

but dont have to really bother about that cos i think everyone sure fulfill that. just bear in mind that YOU CANT ESCAPE FROM SCIENCE.


-lappies can be purchased at the NTU IT fair @ Nanyang Auditorium from 13-17 Aug (10-5pm). available models? pls check here.

-lappies purchases require the presentation of your matriculation card. collection of matri card for CS is 6-10Aug 9-5pm @ Asian Communication Resource Centre (ACRC)
SCI, Level 1




ok cant think of anything else that may come across your mind. will add if there's more.
