sigh, been wanting to blog but have been either procrastinating or disciplining myself. the beginning of the week was havoc.... test, presentation, test... coupled from last week's presentation, report due, test, test..... it's.... it's...........well all i can said is phew!
now i'm given everyday to sleep as long as i want...but my ultimate goal is to not gain too much weight from my exam food supply and try not to spend too much (end of sem, i spent almost all of my scholarship money already)
*recalls what i wanted to blog about*.....too many brain cells fried during test preparation, the rest of the brain cells occupied for storing information until exam....but even then, cannot delete all info....coz apparently, in year 4 there's this big oral test where they put you alone in the room with your tester and you are faced with some problem, then you have to use all your knowledge, from every year(physio, anat, drug principles, pharmacology, law, pharm practice) to answer it. DIE DIE DIE. the new dept head has assured us that no life sci or chem engin student can upsurp our throne in the employment market. because of our syllabus and our quality of student (top 3-4% supposedly).
but, according to statistical information, if you take the top 4% of a normal distribution, you can't simply use this sample of the population, throw them back into the funnel (words of wisedom from quek) and try and fit these students into a normal distribution again (cap calculation). you will get screwed up results, low student self-esteem and discrimination against the "weaker" students. that, is where i suposedly am.
enough about cap. try as much as i can to say it doesn't matter, but if its the only indicator of excellance, i'll gnaw at it. coz i'm a very competitive person.
