As usual...

Why the heading?
If one has been following this blog, it's quite inevitable to find out that i do pay a lot of attention to the kind of results i've been getting in NUS... And as with our rich NUS heritage and tradition of giving our results back to us during the festive season, i've decided to keep up with my tradition of blogging before the results are out. Not only it goes towards soothing me before i actually see my results, it also seeks to serve as a reflection of what i've done during the semester. Need this though... To reflect my time in NUS. After all this is going to be the 2nd last time i am going to blog about NUS modules again. Anyway, this is going to be the do or break semester... If i get past this semester, basically, i will be the most relaxed, carefree NUS Student next semester... Hahah
Here we go...

(Results were actually leaked to some of the students 2 weeks ago...)

Money & Banking...
Shandre wasn't a really very good lecturer, but of course what he lectures on is still very clear, partly because he's a singaporean... Probably the module i paid the least attention to untill the finals. Wasn't a difficult module in the end... but maybe that's what all students fear finally... The DREADED bell curve MAH! Hahhaha

International Economics....
Graphs, graphs and more graphs... That'sn what emily cremers taught us, together with all those useless tutorials... Wasn't exactly helpful for the finals... Paid attention for like 40% of the course... It was simply too difficult to follow for the rest of the course... But of course i dare say that this is the most well prepared module in the end... (Spend like 1 week in TP just to mug for this module...) And I really really thank the Power Above for blessing me again. If not for the MIRACULOUS intervention through Jack and the taxes example, i would had been screwed HORRIBLY.

Behavioral Economics
This is the Economics module that is the most important... Because it really did a good job in debunking the standard theories that we learnt as an EC major in NUS. It was difficult this module... And WWK wasn't especially an interesting Instructor. But as i say... this one of the most important EC module i've taken.... Nothing is absolute.. Nothing stays.... It was difficult... Wasn't really expecting a good grade for this...

Organisational Behavior...
B+? Perhaps and hopefully seriously.. The most fun and engaging module in NUS... With one of the best instructor, Jay in town, it was no wonder, the students enjoyed every single lesson, as well as remember all the concepts learn easily... Engaging Teaching... This is what it really works... really...

Contract theory...
Leaving my Biggest Cheers for Feng Ge... Without doubt he's the best instructor that i've come across in NUS...Simply the best... I was so confident in his teaching ability, that so much so that i've just enrolled into this module because he's the instructor, not even knowing what the module is about actually... That's how much i trust him, and he certainly didn't disappoint on this count... He really didn't and i am extremely grateful for all the effort into teaching this bunch of lousy economics students. He NEVER EVER gave up on us... That's of course is the most important attribute, i would think, for a teacher...Keeping my finger crossed for this module...

That's all folks... For my summary... In less than 8 hours time... In a different, but pleasant location, i will know what fate has in store for me... I await with abated breath...
