guys when will we get our term 2(or sem 1) results

Guys what happens if u fail a module. like ik u get to retake the next sem but how will it be like 😢ik im failing this one module for my est

idk if its too early to say or what, but i think that ill be getting quite a trashy GPA at the end of this semester.

I really want to graduate with a good GPA at the end of 3 years but i feel that even if i gave my best for the remaining years i can only get 3.6

idk what do yall think

yo chat isit true that I can stopped from taking EST if I don’t complete spa for my projects that require it ?? cause in y1s1 I didn’t do spa then on the est day for that mod , the teacher said that if I don’t do spa I can’t sit for the EST for the mod ?? 😭😭 then I had to do on the spot bruh luckily the wifi didn’t crash and I oso bring laptop 😭but got such thing meh wtf now I lowkey think the teacher capping Sia maybe he just wanna complete the marking so he cappppppppp like don’t the teachers mark fucking slow for CA2 one like one of mods this sem I also nvr do spa for one mod yet but I can go for est leh im so confused

Does anyone know if you need a laptop for the est cuz the mst needed it for you to open up the questions and my laptop just broke 😭

im like perfectly safe for every other modules im taking for exam except for this one module bro its so theory heavy i cant

I want to aim for an A and i roughly estimate I would need around 70~/100 for the exam, i did my exam sample papers and the first one went well i got 70/100 and the second one i did horribly bad like 40-50/100 like i dont even know what went wrong

seniors of this module pls offer any advice on how yall ace this module cause i need this so bad bruh

Will there be class switch after this first sem? I’m from SOC DAAA and the common programme students will have their new classes, so will they be put in the same class or we shuffle with them?

Not really wishing for the shuffle since I have good group mates rn

Hi, I’m a Year 2 cybersecurity (defence) student at SP and we have to choose our Year 3 pathway soon. I’m currently deciding between:
FYP
YLI with 2 companies (2 × 22 weeks)
YLI with 1 company (44 weeks)
I need to get an A for whichever option I choose, so I’m trying to get some opinions from people who have actually gone through them.
For those who have done FYP/YLI, what was your experience like and which would you recommend?
For FYP, is there a proper rubric/marking scheme, and how difficult is it to get an A? For YLI, did you find the experience useful for getting a job afterwards? Also, would you say doing 2×22 weeks or 1×44 weeks is better for building experience/resume?
And for those who have applied for cybersecurity internships, how high does your GPA realistically need to be to get into a good company? How much does GPA matter compared to skills/projects/certs?
Would appreciate any advice, especially from seniors who have already done FYP or YLI 🙏

Hey guys,I am currently at a dilemma and like my laptop is making creaking noises.I think it the fan that is the problem. It is a lenovo gaming laptop.Can like anyone recommend me any repair shops at a cheap rate. Thanks.

My course is DME where do i get the sticker for my calculator. My cher said around T18 but idk where

I realised the past yr est exam papers for basic maths all the questions r generally almost the same, have the same format, is that normal? Does that mean this incoming est also same same. If thats so, i might as well just study those questions rather than explore so deep into the topic. Pls tell me its still the same and they wont throw in a curveball

hey guys, it's the BrightSparks team 👋 dropping a lowkey important psa for anyone still sleeping on their scholarship apps

“Students should be informed that redistribution of assessment components (where applicable) arising from approved LOA(s), leading to the calculation of the module grade is subject to an overall module cap of 15% (i.e. floor rule of 85% imposed). For more details, students should check with his/her respective lecturer teaching the module”

Do I get 85% of the 35%=29.75% redistributed or only 15% of the test gets redistributed.

hi for those who took am2 and 3 as their electives, do the teachers upload the recording of the lesson ? because for am1 the lecturer in charge uploads video of the 4h lesson every week , and it is quite useful if i miss a lesson.
