SEP Munich, Germany – Study Day – Day 9 – 13.05.2011

Well, I don’t have class today.

Anyway since I missed my lectures and tutorials for the first week, I have to catch them up! So no matter what today is dedicated for my lecture notes, and sadly no webcast! ><

A brief overview of my study here:
Basically the system is just the normal university style with lectures and tutorials. However the time slot is 1.5 hour per lecture and 45 minutes per tutorial. Ok it doesn’t sound very great but MOST modules (of mine, but I believe this applies to the overview too) are just one lecture per week! At most one lecture with one tutorial.

This is my school hours throughout an arbitrary week:
Mon: 3 lectures = 3 x 1.5 hours + 2 x 15 minutes transition = 5 hours
Tue: 1 tutorial = 45 minutes
Wed: Nothing
Thu: 1 lecture + 1 tutorial = 1.5 hours+ 45 minutes + 2 hours gap = 4h 15 m
Fri: Nothing

So excluding the relatively not so complex project from one module my weekly school time will be 10 hours! Sounds impossible for 4 modules in NUS right! But it’s the truth!

Perhaps the contents are lesser? Nope, the contents are rich but compact. Thus intensive self-study is needed; Anyway I prefer self-study even when I’m in NUS.

So what I do during those free time? Hmm… I also don’t know, but the confirmed thing is that I’ve spent some quality time on sightseeing. Hmmm, that’s not bad right? What say you?
