Got a shock this morning when i wanted to bid for my mod..
e browser cant even load CORS webpage and most of the other websites such as Google..
given the recovery of internet service, it did gave me a scare..
realli thankful tt its jus a case of my pc throwing a tantrum.. lol..
anyway after a brief examining of the bidding situation, there are some interesting stuff to share..
1. Modules with ulu timings are super HOT!!
Okay, i must admit that some of these modules are interesting eg cybercrime and forensic science.. At one time, i was considering taking both the mods but kinda put off by their timing cos its from either 6-9pm or 7-10pm!! Hence i decide to give them a miss..
However, right now they are among the hottest mod.. In terms of over-subscription % and next min bid..
Given the lecture time, i realli cant believe that the demand is still ard 25% more than the supply even though the class size is a whopping 400..
I suppose the students think that they can take it and they can make use of the free interval to do concrete stuff.. but as a student who have been being thro, it is hardly the case.. dun overestimate yourself.. lets admit it, we are all humans.. =D
2. New high for highest bid for round 2A- 2500 (approx)
This is from what i saw la.. and it occurs in bidding of a GEM! (pts must be from general account)
gosh, this person must be fulfilling the least requirements for GEM & SS..
or he/she must be taking GEM/SS that cost onli 1 bid pt. if this is true, im at a loss of words..
cos GEM has been super hot for the past 3 sems at least. Previously i still know of people who can bid for a GEM with 1 pt but it somehow has become history.
For me, i alr wasted 350 pts for 1 GEM in my 1st sem and have never accumulated more than 1200 pts in my general account.. dunno why e mods i wan are also e popular ones.. even 'spent' a bomb for a minor mod!! sianz
But at least i can ya-ya about how i can get financial accounting with jus 1 pt.. it has my biggest achievement.. haha
However for now, how i wish i can transfer my pts in prog acct to general acct.. my prog acct has been idle for the past 3-4 sems cos my econs mods are pre-allocated to me.. right now i have 3000 pts with nowhere to spend! if only my prog acct is my general acct.. then i can create havoc *evil laughter*
hmm, maybe the sch admin can innovate the pts sys and make it into a money making route for entreprising students.. i will cfm be one of the 1st participants =P
