Year 2 Sem 2

I left Year 2 Sem 1 still within touching distance of first class honours. Determined to smash my way back into that elite rank, i started off like a demon possessed in Year 2 Sem 2. My only friend and relaxation was my basketball, and this was the first semester of my life which i managed to complete without touching computer games. I would be severely disappointed if i didnt get at least 3 As this time.

SSA1201: Labour Law
My first module outside the engine/science fac, labour law, or employment law, was taken in the faculty of business. And it was the most fun module i have ever taken. Don't get me wrong, i enjoy my engineering modules; but its a different kind of enjoyment. I obtain satisfaction from my engine mods, for example when i manage to get one of my gadgets working. With this business module, it can only be described as pure fun without any purpose whatsoever. With class participation marks involved, i'm free to chat with the teacher as much as i want without being judged, since everyone else is doing it too. And our teacher was a variety genius. Top marks for wit. I remember really looking forward to class every week as it was more like entertainment than studying.
Even though the marks for this module won't be counted, i still wanna get an A- at least, since it'll be quite an achievement if i, an engineering student, can walk into a business school and get an A class grade above their heads, knowing that if they came into my fac, i'm guaranteed to sweep the floor with em. No offence to biz kids; i probably ain't getting an A- anyway so thats just wishful thinking. B+ is far more likely
Projected result: B+/A-

I had two of my best teachers ever in my life combined in a sem. one of them was from:

PC2232
As usual, i did well for all my midterms. And for once, i raped all my finals... until the last paper, PC2232. Before the final-final paper, i messaged alot of my espada, saying im gonna get deans list for sure. I would live to regret that; the next day, i met the PC2232 paper. It was a tough paper, but i'm annoyed that i didnt rape it; in fact one might say i got raped. And it was an even bigger disappointment because my PC2232 teacher Angeline was without a doubt one of the best teachers i ever had, and she helped me a ton. I didn't get off to a good start due to lame NS calling me up on the first week of school and struggled all the way. She seriously saved me and i felt i understood the concepts really well. And boy, were the concepts difficult in this mod. As usual, the hard parts were easy for me (Quantum physics and schrodinger's eqn) but i got owned by the easy parts and also made a bunch of careless mistakes in the final paper. As it was an extremely difficult paper, i can only hope i did relatively well to scrape an A-, although it could as easily be a B+.
Projected result: B+/A-

Another excellent teacher that taught me was Dr Heng, from

EE2021
Anything under an A would be a joke. I would tear NUS down, complain to the authorities, report to the police for robbery. The average for the midterms was under 50%; i got 76%. My final paper was as good as a gimme; i might have gotten 1 small careless mistake, but i raped all the rest of the paper. Semiconductors was pretty fun; i might delve more into it when i got to the states. Right now, i'm just happy that i'm probably going to get A for an engine mod.
Projected result: A

EE2012
The final paper was ridiculously difficult. But i owned it. I really did. There was one sick question about gaussian distribution that really tested our understanding. The first time i went thru that question in the paper, i rmb thinking: wtf is this shit. I skipped it and did the rest of the paper. I looked at the qn again, and relaxed. And thought. And had a major epiphany. Find the gaussians' mean and variance separately, and then combine them. Easy as that. The working was far from simple, but i did it carefully, and raped it. If this was only reliant on the final paper, it would be an A for sure. But the dang prof had to make a system with quizzes thru the sem with each quiz only being 10 min. And i'm especially weak at this kind of stuff since i usually drop into panic moment at the last 10 minutes of an exam. So basically for the quizzes i'm in panic moment... throughout. Yea. I foamed for the first 3 quizzes, just passed, got 70% for the next 2, (getting used to the fked up sensation of panic moment from start to finish), full marks for the last 2 quizzes (don't tempt me, prof, give me enough time to acclimatize and ill rape anything you throw at me.) My only worry is that i had some major disagreements with the prof and debated with him for quite a few hours regarding my methods. I always got the right answers, but he disapproved of my methods and marked me down for them in the quiz. But debates with this prof were of a high standard; this prof had both brains and speaking ability. I have argued with many teachers in the past and in NUS, and this is the first time i would call it a tie. The rest couldn't even get close to my ability. In all honesty, this should be an A-, or i would seriously have been robbed. But it could be a B+ too.
Projected result: B+/A-

EE2032
I raped the first half of the sem as i had one of my favourite teachers, Dr Zhang as the tutor. The second half was dismal to say the least. The teacher was really kinda lazy, although i have to admit he is extremely interesting and witty. If i ended up being a prof i might be that style also, although i seriously doubt i will be THAT lazy. Well, i used to be even lazier in the past, but i'm pretty sure i've been working so hard that i've killed all my lazy cells alrdy. They're extinct. Based on the first half i would have gotten A+, but this is probably an A-.
Project result: A-

Projected cap (EE2032 is only 2MCs, so it only contributes half the cap of the others)
Best case: 4.61 ( I would be thrilled with this)
later edit: i actually obtained 4.79.. absolutely the best moment of my life
Worst case: 4.28 (i would have been robbed, seriously) 4.36 (after S/U. Still robbed)
Likely case: 4.5 (after S/U. Not bad i guess, i would be content with this. 3 A class grades would be what i deserved considering how hard i worked this sem)
