Spring Semester
I managed to finish my spring semester successfully. In this semester, I have to take 9 courses in least than 4 months. Sincerely, I feel very tired in this whole semester. The courses are:
credits | course | Description and my feeling |
3 | Introduction to engineering | There is a lot of difficult and complex calculations. The mark for each question usually 10. If I make the false assumption at first, then 10 marks easily lose. The assumption is made by our understanding based on the figure given. Now, I have known ABET, engnr fnct, engnr discipline, thermodynamics, kinchof, etc |
5 | Calculus 1 | This is the hardest part in additional math. I need to deal with lot of alphabets rather than numbers. Most of d calculation based on definition such as fundmtl cal theory1, fundmntl cal theory 2, mean value theorem, etc…..i need a long period of time to understand them all. To increase my comprehension, I have downloaded calculus videos from youtube bcoz I don’t really understand what d lecturer has taught in class. However, d lecturer is very kind. |
2 | Advance composition | It based on your reading on selected materials. It not bad at all but so hard to get d higher mark. The last project is research paper. I have done research on online education. |
3 | Speech communication | The grad is based on 2 exams and 5 speeches. The speeches are impromptu speech(my future wife), introductory speech( history of kite), demonstrative speech( how to make a kite), persuasive speech ( driving while using cell phone is dangerous) and informative speech(Avicenna=ibnu sina’) |
3 | Chemistry 1 | I need to study 11 long chapters in very short time.huh. I admit that I don’t understand it at all until the final exam. Too much definition to memorize, a lot of new concept,etc |
2 | Islamic studies | This course helps a lot in maintaining my cgpa. I just need to get flying color result in 2 exams, make a presentation and send a folio. |
2 | America culture | This is very hectic course. A lot of money and time are spended juz for 2 credits hour course.arrgggh. moreover, I need to memorize America history and make a lot of presentations. The presentations are explain one chapter in front of class, appreciation of music( greenday- jamming at plaza central), special day(labor day), and attractive state( Alaska). I Also need make a review of 1 short story( long actually) and class parade(spiderman)....moreover, attendance for hello-wind night and american got talent also compulsory.... |
1 | Experiments for chemistry | This is the least credit hour course but I need to spend a lot of time to finish up 11 lab reports |
2 | Critical thinking | Quiet interesting. Also have many presentations such as forum( important of mother tongue language), advertisement review( road safety), article review( sleep now ,remember later) |
