polytechnic standard has dropped??
-
do u guys think that polytechnic standard has dropped cos the cut-off point is getting worse year after year. During my year for my course is 16 but now it is above 22.

hmm........

Nope...i don't think the standard has dropped.
There are other concerns of the institution other then lowering the cut down points.
It concerns the future of the State. -
Damn suay.
I'm from SP's Diploma in Multimedia Technology. Sadly I was the first batch of the course after it revamped from the Diploma in Software Engineering. The first batch was virtually Guinea Pigs, vanguard for trial and error (and alot of errors). Equipments are relatively obsolete. Other Polys using Mac OS while we use Window OS. Window OS kind of sucky for multimedia usage.
Haiz...
Anyway I don't think it dropped. Technically, poly students or graduates are more independent in work. Ability to handle stress and cope with work stress is good. Cos' Poly people are technically more exposed to real life working environment (Argh! Stress Arh!!!) Better than JC people who graduate from universities. These universities graduates nowadays normally expect more pay this and that. -
looking at the number of poly now compared to last time...now we hav 5...the competition is greater...and also the influx of students into poly education has boosted its enrolment too.
mi can onli say the expectations of things have changed... and we are living in an uncertain environment...and hence such uncertain outlooks for the whole situation. Unemployment has hard hit... even the calibre of students hav improved, the parameters of measurement of the standards has obsolete...we need a new dimensions of measurement.

haha... cut offf points for most courses had became higher since the 2001 intake...Originally posted by garylin:do u guys think that polytechnic standard has dropped cos the cut-off point is getting worse year after year. During my year for my course is 16 but now it is above 22.
I went into poly in 2000 and i was applying for Accounting but the cutoff pts is too low and i just couldn't make it where i am 1 pt higher but my fren who came poly a yr later got in where her L1R4 is 22 man...
Too bad for my batch.... The rise of cut off pts are due to increase of courses... since 2001 there are alot more courses being created especially due to life sciences so the cut off pts are raised for the polys to enrol more students
