Release of CGPA result to most CE yr2 and yr3 students!
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!! A huge mistake made by one of the coordinator resulted in the release of CGPA result to most of the Computer Engineering year 2 and year 3 students. The victims whose CGPA were unwillingly released includes students from Computer Engineering, Computer Science and Double Degree (Computing and Business). They(the victims) are, or rather we are, all from either year 2 or year 3.
Judging from the list, it has been proven that, Computer Engineering is indeed, the KILLER course. Among those in year 3, only a couple made it above 4.5, where only one of the is a local student. There are still a FEW (i believed not more than 5) students who might be omitted from the list, since they are now on IA who has the potential of achieving the 4.5 feat. But the fact that the proportion of first class honor potential holders is SO minute disgusts me. Who are responsible for those underrated students who are deserving more than the grade that they should have? We students know the answer in our heart.
For those who have a score of more than 4.0, we need no more than our pair of hands to finish counting those who are on the list eligible for the 2nd upper honor. Oh, how great is that.
I was in fact happy to see the list, as it was a clear indication as to where i stood among my fellow coursemates. It is not the arrogance that drive me to applaud this mistake, but instead the sense of achievement that comes after 2 years. Without proper acknowledgement from the professors, we students have totally no idea how well or how badly we have done over the past 2 years. All you can hear is "I am not doing well", "My grades are horrible". We can always sense an uncertainty in people when they relate their capabilities to their grades and at times like this, we need confirmation from people with authority to keep us moving on. If it turns out that someone is really doing badly, the friends around can lend a helping hand with the knowledge of him/her being in a dire situation. Pardon me for saying that, at least for myself, i choose to help people selectively. Without the proper knowledge of how well or badly they are doing, i will decide who to help by judging if they are worthy or deserving, irregardless of their result. They can be someone better than me, or someone worse than me, as long as i think that they deserve good treatment, there goes. Many times there were this thought going through my mind, "Are you seriously as bad as you say?". If you gonna whine about how bad your result is when seeking help, the best thing to do in my opinion is to state your case clearly. A good way is to reveal your grades for the past subjects, so that it gives the person you are seeking help from an assurance that he/she is really helping someone out, not feeding a leecher.
Having said so much, i would also like to bring up another issue. DON'T BE SO SENSITIVE!!! What is the deal with "privacy"? People do ERR. Face it with pride! Whats the big deal with your result being released? Just think, who the hell would be interested in looking at your result without first knowing you in the first place??? There will only be 2 kind of person who will be looking at your result. One of them is someone who CARES about you. The 2nd one is someone who DISLIKES you for some reason or another. If your friend bothers to look at your result, it just shows that he/she is truly concerned about you. SERIOUSLY I SWEAR. In the case of myself, i looked at the result of those whom i really cared (although i did also look out for people who are scoring 4 and above out of curiosity). And also, i DID look at results of people whom i DISLIKED. Yup. So if you are embarrassed or angry about your result being released to people whom you are not on good terms with, go face the wall and think about why are you unliked. I am sure there are people who disliked me that are looking at my result, but so what? I don't even give a damn. Even if you come laughing at me if my result happened to be worse than yours, the only thing i can do is to 1) Keep quiet to reduce further humiliation or 2) Spurt vulgurities like there is no tomorrow and endure further humiliation. Personally, i might be all for option 2, but at times, if i am sober enough, option 1 will always be a better choice. By keeping mum, it not only will shut their mouth, but also a way to make them feel embarrassed as there will be no response to his senseless humiliation. But for friends who used this incident as a harmless joke, don't take it too hard too. I know it is not very nice for your friends to reveal the result, even though he has no intention of hurting you, but try to understand that only friends who care will bother to even crack this kind of joke. It is totally OK for you to be angry with him/her for a short period of time, but just bear in mind that he/she is truly concerned about you after you have regained your cool.
