Just wondering when will the checklist and reporting time for pre camp for O week be out?

It will be out 1-2 days before precamp!

I'm BAC yr2 now. Is it too late to apply for y2s2 sep? If i apply during this coming nov/dec, can i apply for y2s2 or only y3s1 exchange?

Y2S2 applications have already closed. If you apply in the next application window, it will be for Y3S1.

As a year 2 BBA student, is there any advantage to taking FIN2004 in Y2S1 as compared to taking it in Y2S2?

More people want to take FIN2004 in Sem 1 as it is a prerequisite for specializing in finance. This way, they may proceed with their spec mods faster than if they were to take FIN2004 in Sem 2.

Hi, are there any ways to change the lecture timings if it is pre-allocated for freshmen?

Heng Li Mei (Karen)
Lecture timings are actually flexible, that is, you may go for any lecture timing that is convenient for you :) Tutorials however, are strict in timing as attendance and class participation may be taken. Tutorial timings have to be balloted after bidding ends.

Is it important for freshies to fill in minor subjects of study for CORS? Thanks.

No, you don't have to fill that in.

Do Year 1 freshmen need to bid for tutorial timings in round 1c?

Tutorial balloting will only be held after bidding is complete, so nope!

Aside from UEs and GEMs, what other non-core modules are required of an BBA (acc) student to fulfill?

BAC students only have UEs and GEMs as non-biz mods to fulfil :)

Hi there, I have been allocated 3 core mods + BFS this sem. For my final 2 mods, can I do both Senior sems under UTCP? Or do I have to bid for another core mod and only one UTCP mod

That decision is up to you :)

Hi there! I am year 2 Business Administration. However, I am only preallocated with 3 business module. Do I appeal CORS or bid for another module? Thanks!

Hi, you may do either :) It depends on which module you want to get, and it may either by up for appeals or for bidding.

Hi if we are not allocated acc1006 this sem and will be going on exchange next sem, will we be allocated this in year 3? Or do we have to bid for acc1006 this coming sem?

Hi! We aren't sure of this ourselves, but we believe you may need to bid for it in Y3 as Y3s are not usually preallocated any modules. However, you should file an appeal in CORS to take it this semester to save your the trouble!

Hi, to mutual swap all my classes, do i have to go down to the office with the person i am swapping with or i can just send an email?

You may just send an email. We are unsure if it helps the BBA Office to visit them with the person you're swopping with, but you may try as well.
Please do note that emailing the Office to request for a swop of baskets may not necessarily be successful as there have been many students indicating interest to join the FIN2004 basket and it may well be oversubscribed.

Hi! May I know when will the timetable for BBA freshmen be out? And by preallocated modules, you mean the school will tell us which lecture and tutorial slots we have to attend right?

Your timetable will only be confirmed once you have registered / balloted for your tutorials for ALL of your modules. The current timetable will be available on CORS on the 21st of July, or even now, if you use myISIS and NUSMODS to help you. And yup, preallocated mods have stipulated timeslots for you as well.

Hi, I am a Y2 BBA stud. I am required to take ES1102, may i ask if it would be too late to take it next sem? Or is there any time range that I have to complete it by?

Anytime is fine, but do note that it is a core module and so its best that you clear it ASAP, especially if there is no reason for you to delay :)

Hello, Y2 BBA student here. Do we have to bid in round 1A to bid for core modules and ES1102?

Hi there, you should have been pre-allocated your core mods so you shouldn't have to bid for them. But if you do, then yes, you can bid during 1A. We are not sure is ES1102 is available for bidding in 1A, but you can try your luck and see if it is!

What modules do the y2 baskets include for BAC students?

The two baskets are:
FIN2004
ACC2002
ACC3605
ACC3601
ACC3603
BFS2001
or
FIN2004
ACC1006
BSP2001
MNO2007
DSC2006
BFS2001

Can freshmen bid for GEM or UEs in round 1C?

Nope, 1C is only for core mods, which is why freshies don't have to bid.

Are advance placement test taken once? Like will it be offered again during the 3-4 years of study?

Nope, it is only offered once to freshmen before matriculation :)

I'm BAC y2 now. I got the 2000 modules (FIN etc...) How do i swap the basket so that i can take the 3000 modules this sem and go for SEP?

You may email Mr Thomas Low Joon Kiat at the BBA Office to request for a swop of your basket!

Hi I'm a year 2 BBA student. When do we bid for GEMs? Round 1C or 2A?

Y2 students cannot bid in 1C. The earliest you can bid for GEMs is 2A :)

What are UEs and GEMs?

UEs are known as unrestricted electives and are modules can biz students may take that belong to any other faculty e.g. science, arts. UEs will also be used to count for the second specialisation if you choose to take a double spec.
GEMs are general education modules offered by NUS and do not belong to a select faculty. each student (not residing in residential colleges) are required to take 5 GEMs throughout their undergraduate courses :)

Hi, I'm a year 2 student. If I'm preallocated 3 core mods and BFS, what else should I bid for? Gems or UE? For biz students, UE are usually our specs right?

The choice is entirely up to you! You can bid for a spec mod, GEM, or UE. UEs are only considered as spec mods if you are a BBA student taking a second spec, OR if you are a BAC student taking a second spec (that is not accounting).

Hi! It is mentioned that it will be better to finish GEMs by end of year 2, however, if we were to complete them by year 3 sem 1, is that alright? Thank you!

It is alright, but it will affect your timetable as Y3 onwards is when most people will start taking their spec mods. You might have to overload if you are taking a GEM. If you are fine with overloading then it's perfectly okay!

What is the rough percentage of freshmen (out of the whole biz freshmen) taking part in O'week?

About 75-80%!

Hi, I'm a year 2 BBA student. I am only allocated 8MCs for Y2S1, but my peers are allocated 12MCs. Do I have to bid for the remaining or request BBA office to allocate me 4 more MCs

Hi, you can bid for the remaining, or appeal through CORS (when it opens) for a core module of your choice :)

Which round can we do mutual swop? Is it before the bidding of GEM modules?

Mutual swops can be done at any time as long as you approach the BBA Office together with your mutual swop partner! But it is highly recommended that you complete it as fast as possible :)
