Don't you just hate people who know everything

did he learn the topic before?but my guess would be that he came from china.. their maths standard is darn high..Originally posted by renorenal:During my A Levels year, there is this Further Mathematics which is an option paper my friends take, and what I cant stand is that this guy cracks jokes at the back while the lecturer is teaching in every single session. He pays no attention to the lecturer and would at times sleep...
We know he is born a mathematician, but I guess he did not took RESPECT from his mom's womb when he was born... For those who are curious, he got distinction, as unsurprisingly as all of us, for all 3 papers of Further Mathematics... wat a jerk...

Come SG la..Originally posted by renorenal:Now the one I am working in are all Malay nurses larr =) I am waiting for Chinese ones... but there won't be any in their government hospitals... they got plenty in private hospitals, but you have to be a consultant in order to be able to transfer out from govt hospital, and to be a consultant from where I am now, I see a 15 years gap... -
No he didn't take any before... he is a Malaysian... during the secondary school time, he got 100 all the time in all maths papers and would walk up to the teacher and say no standard lar 'cher, lousy paper...Originally posted by stellazio:did he learn the topic before?but my guess would be that he came from china.. their maths standard is darn high..
Then one day the teacher decided to play a prank on him by setting the questions tougher plus filled with many tricks... jeopardizing the rest of the class of course (97% failures in the class) and he turned out how much? 100 again... the teacher had to pull hair...
Thanks to him that we all cmi... -
darn did he proceed to study mathematics in uni??quite obvious huh...born genius..cannot compare..Originally posted by renorenal:No he didn't take any before... he is a Malaysian... during the secondary school time, he got 100 all the time in all maths papers and would walk up to the teacher and say no standard lar 'cher, lousy paper...

He's doing actuarial science in NUS... and yes, if I have the opportunity, I wish I was in Singapore... but now there is a medical policy preventing us Malaysian doctors to touch Singaporean patients... sigh...Originally posted by stellazio:darn did he proceed to study mathematics in uni??quite obvious huh...born genius..cannot compare.. -
whats that policy all about,care to enlighten us??Originally posted by renorenal:He's doing actuarial science in NUS... and yes, if I have the opportunity, I wish I was in Singapore... but now there is a medical policy preventing us Malaysian doctors to touch Singaporean patients... sigh... -
Overheard from an O/G specialist, concerning those medical ranks who are able to transfer in and out of country to Spore, UK, US, Canada and others lor, they are only allowed to give comments or seminars / lectures / discussions / medical forums on latest issues in Spore... But not allowed to work in Spore unless you graduate from there...Originally posted by stellazio:whats that policy all about, care to enlighten us??
Even though you appeal and get it, it is 1 in a million... the health system in Spore is very high tech and advance in terms of many different managements. Our country, Malaysia is far from even reaching there yet, so its a difference in that... -
There is an exception, a rank lower than specialists are registrars... they are given the opportunity now to attend a course of specialty that they like in the country they wish to work in, i.e. UK is very popular in this aspect... so like during your work, you take 6 months to 3 years leave to go and study there and work there lor...

eh I love Economics wor, it is now sort of like my minor...I wish I have chosen to major in Economics instead...Originally posted by stellazio:mine was classmates sleeping thru accounts class but ending up with a D+ thanks to their poa background..Economics is tough man.. 
-
My parents wanted me to study Medicine, but then I argued with them about that, and ended up doing a major which is probably just as hard anyway
-
duno for some reason,my female classmates seems to like it too..maybe girls like economics..for me i prefer marketing..can exhibit some amount of flair and also alot when in doubt just write crap..Originally posted by rainee:eh I love Economics wor, it is now sort of like my minor...I wish I have chosen to major in Economics instead... -
I like MacroEconomics more than MicroEconomics tho...now am doing MacroEconomics Policies...learn how to forecast economics...Originally posted by stellazio:duno for some reason,my female classmates seems to like it too..maybe girls like economics..for me i prefer marketing..can exhibit some amount of flair and also alot when in doubt just write crap.. -
macro is easier,cause you study about the whole population one whole big thing,so it leaves abit of room for error..nah i learnt the basics nia,refuse to further on economics..Originally posted by rainee:I like MacroEconomics more than MicroEconomics tho...now am doing MacroEconomics Policies...learn how to forecast economics... -
ERM.. does SG need engineers ?

Originally posted by rainee:eh I love Economics wor, it is now sort of like my minor...I wish I have chosen to major in Economics instead...
After i finished my Electrotechnology.. i so wanted to do Econ on Operation Management side.. i passed everything except the micro n the macro in first year..

wow... the things u guys say are absolutely intriguing.. and here i am, studying about pyrimidine metabolism and eukaryotic transcription. -_-"

haha yeah lor i also so boring learning about cell culture and stem cellls(learning not doing)Originally posted by starblue:wow... the things u guys say are absolutely intriguing.. and here i am, studying about pyrimidine metabolism and eukaryotic transcription. -_-" -
I bored to death learning algorithm design and preparing for my exam this Monday...thing is, it will be an open book exam, so I dunno exactly wat to prepare for...

If open book, no need to stardee lar... sure can one marOriginally posted by rainee:I bored to death learning algorithm design and preparing for my exam this Monday...thing is, it will be an open book exam, so I dunno exactly wat to prepare for... -
but got a lot of notes...scared I cant find them in time...Originally posted by renorenal:If open book, no need to stardee lar... sure can one mar -
thats why you must mark otu the important thigns and use stick it to mark them for easy locationOriginally posted by rainee:but got a lot of notes...scared I cant find them in time... -
to me, algorithm design is elementary compared to stats...Originally posted by rainee:I bored to death learning algorithm design and preparing for my exam this Monday...thing is, it will be an open book exam, so I dunno exactly wat to prepare for...
open book exams are generally harder...you won't even have time to flip thru...
for one maths paper i skipped all the stats qns which takes up almost like 50% of the paper...heng, less than 50% else sure fail... -
algorithm design is elementary? You must be kidding! This is the class that caused half of us to get 44/100 in the recent exam...Originally posted by kaobeikaobu:to me, algorithm design is elementary compared to stats...

On the other hand, I love Stats
Haiz, I am praying that the exam on Monday wud be easy...he gave us a sample exam last week and he said it wud mirror the exam we are going to take this Mon, and it looks quite simple...so hopefully it will be sth like dat...
Btw, since u said algorithm design is easy, maybe you can help me with the Dynamic Programming concept -
a simple stats qn can easily make me looked retard...i can just look blankly at the qn...Originally posted by rainee:algorithm design is elementary? You must be kidding! This is the class that caused half of us to get 44/100 in the recent exam...

dynamic algorithms...sure but sorry if i can't reply all ur qns...
wats the sample qn?
concurrent programming is another interesting subject...
