forum madness

sometimes i get my daily dose of laughter from reading the PC1432 discussion forum.

there is a physics virtuoso among us who is equally endowed with arrogance to piss mere mortals struggling to have just a decent enough grade. here are some excerpts of the flaming and counter-flaming done by supposedly mature and intellectual engineer-wannabes.

This guy started it all:


Here are the Midterm Examination Answers:-

1E 2C 3A 4D 5C 6A 7B 8D 9C 10A 11A 12C 13E 14E 15E

Please tell me if anyone of you want the solutions

I think the average score will be around 12.5

Enjoy...

which instigated the longest thread ever in the forum..i couldn't post every reply of course, but here are some of the interesting ones.

(but before that, i would like to note that this VaihaV character assumed that all his answers are correct and decided to share it with us dimwits.)


what the hell are u talking about when u say the average score is 12.5.....more like 12.5%.....dunno where u get the statistics from....total nonsense

yaya he should mix around more to find out the general opinion of the paper rather than living in his own world =P

I think you are talking crap... its impossible to finish the paper let alone saying the average is 12.5.... I dunno why NUS lecturers like to set demanding papers and kill most of us... is it bcoz they wanna differentiate the best from the worst... anyway, wats the point of setting tough paper and in the end have to moderate... ridiculous...BUT it is a good challenge to our brain...


and then the guy is off to defend himself:

After some thinking...

Just wait... pause... think for a while... was the paper REALLY that hard... I mean ok.. the average may not be 12.5... It was just a guess from me from what i saw... I think it is really good if demanding papers are set by NUS lecturers which enable us to think creatively. Let me remind you my friends that University study is not just mugging up some formulae, solving some problems from serway n jewett and expecting exactly the same problems in the examination with only the numerical values changed... DOES ANYONE REALISE WHAT I MEAN TO CONVEY???

And every now and then i hear the words "died in the exam"--> I wonder if this is just a phrase for saying n the one who says it thinks he looks cool saying it or do you really mean it???

Not that i am flawless but yes, i think life moves on... Prepare well for the end term...

P.S.

When you say "anyway, wats the point of setting tough paper and in the end have to moderate... ridiculous... "  

what if i say..." wats the point in setting a damn easy paper and in the end everyone getting 100% marks...then how do you differentiate yourself from others???...aint that ridiculous"

which instigated yet an avalanche of irked replies..


well my friends, we all know that there are always arrogant people any where in this world...so bother them, life goes on...:) wish everyone a nice day...

there are some students who study and study 24 hrs a day, knows nothin abt life apart from books.... and post unrealistic things(which shows he knows nothin abt real life) on this forum. I read ur postings but if i comment on them then surely they will delete my posting.... so nvm...

my 2 cents worth.... 12.5 ... u got to be sick in ur brain! i asked like hundreds of ppl and they found it sick hard. next, if you think this is to deffrentiate between the good and the normal humans......it could be, but to me,  its crap. cuz even some of the very good ones could not complete the paper. 1hour for that paper... impossible!... i would like to say another part of my opinion but due to this is a public forum I shall not! anyway ... it was very demoralizing to me when i did the paper... it also ruined my saturday nite thinking how badly i have done for this paper. if u did well, good for you , keep it up... but for a NORMAL human like me, i felt depressed when i did the paper and it was not challenging my brain.. it was making me look stupid !

Dear vaibhav..You may be exceptionally smart.. i am definitely not anywhere yr league..however..plz understand that in singapore..we do not hold those who post such stuff in high esteem in general..as u can see wif the number of replies that u have gotten..i am stoppin short of being crude..hope it wont be necessary..cheers..

Anyway,its quite something to see such commotion one single person can make.Look at the forum,the 2 topic by vabihav generates more replies in the forum than the amt produced in a week.


and finally, the guy who started it all ended it as well..


Ok... the average is 8.47.. Sorry for the confusion n panic ...

CheerS
