Classes in Spring, in the order of difficulty...let’s see if I’ll still think in the same way in April :S :
6.041: Probabilistic System Analysis
My second Course 6 (i.e. EECS) class. Notoriously difficult psets, and even more difficult exams. There are lectures, recitations and tutorials. I have no idea how challenging it will go, for the time being I will just try to catch up…: S
1.060: Engineering Mechanics II (Fluid Mechanics)
After leaving MCS, I once swore that I will never ever touch Mechanics again. Surprise, surprise, here comes the 3rd round of Mechanics class in MIT. In Structural Mechanics class its all static..now things will flow omg. The professor is very humorous I like him. and its entirely chalk-and-board teaching, which is great.
1.020: Lab II
I never thought I have to worry too much about lab class. Well, not that it is difficult to ace, but it is time consuming in preparing the pre-labs, weekly lab quizzes, team meetings, plans etc. The class is on electronic signal conditioning/sensor and energy harvesting. First lab today, seems fun, have to keep my lab book clean and neat!
14.01: Principles of Microeconomics
People always said this is a very easy class. Really?? Becoz I dont think 14.02 is easy at all ..the exams and psets are so mathematical, the average is low. I could have waive this class if I did well in IB though..haha but I didn’t.
15.501: Corporate Financial Accounting
Another class without powerpoint –they use those transparent plastic sheet and project xxx…what is that projector thing called?! There are fill-in-the-blanks in the lecture note..so jin….anyway….accounting is sth I truly want to learn too. coz I never quite understand those Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 reports. Hope it is as straightforward as I expect la.
