Lecturer: Prof Xue Jun Min, Dr Gu Wenyi, Prof Daniel John Blackwood Lecturer clarity: Somewhat clear, with some words hard to decipher Class size: 95 Timeload: (OTOT E-lecture + 1x 3hr lab + 1x 2hr lab + 1x 2hr tut weekly) Webcast: Lectures - E-lectures, Tutorials - No, Lab - No NUSMODS Quite a lot of self-learning about materials processes, limitations and stuff. Assessment:
Expected Grade: A Achieved Grade: B+ PC1432 Physics IIE [4MC]Taken in AY18/19 Sem 1
Lecturer: Dr Nidhi Sharma, Dr Raditya Weda Bomantara Lecturer clarity: Clear and understandable Class size: ~70 Timeload: (1x 1hr lecture + 1x 2hr lecture + 1x 1hr tut weekly) + 2x 3hr lab per sem Webcast: Lectures - Yes, Tutorials - No, Lab - No NUSMODS I used to be strong in Physics since secondary school (Class' physics rep from Sec 1 to JC 2 straight!) and still have some interest in Physics. But the math-heavy component of this mod has delivered an equally heavy blow towards my passion for physics. This mod was the first time I failed syllabus physics in my life! :O (The highest I got for the Singapore Physics Olympiad a few years back was Honourable Mention, but that's out of syllabus). My grade didn't plummet since I have some background of Quantum Mechanics, etc but the calculations of electric and magnetic shenanigans really kicked me down the bell curve (the wrong side). Anyways, Dr Nidhi frequently brings in various physics toys (so did my secondary school physics teacher) to demonstrate concepts so they don't feel as dry as a maths lecture. *cough MA15xx cough* Some of them are almost like magic tricks! Assessment:
Expected Grade: B- (I got 25th percentile for midterms) Achieved Grade: B+ |
