CFG1001 review (NUS)

in this review, i will be giving the rough description, assessment criteria and difficulty. i will not discuss about how easy or difficult to score a certain grade or what not. also, excuse my language.. i am not a professional writer.

CFG1001: StepUp Module (A Career Development Programme)

this module is a 0 MC module and you might have hear seniors saying that this module is a complete waste of time and pointless. however, i beg to differ. i shall explain more in the later part. this allocated module generally gives you advices on life skills such as preparing your resume, getting right in interviews.. things you will be needing in years to come. the course is only five-weeks long.. with just three of which being face-to-face interaction.

as for grading wise, they grade you according to your class attendance. so long you attend all face-to-face classes, you will be given the “pass” grade.

personally, i find this module rather helpful though it is a little too early to be taught some of these skills. well, some of you might think things covered in this class is more of common sense and what not. to be honest, i thought so too but you will be surprised at certain details that you thought you knew. the skills taught in this class will come in really handy when you are trying for internships and jobs. 

as for tips from someone who has taken this module, while at times you might not be able to help but not pay full attention in those classes, at least keep the handouts they give and take down pointers occasionally. these will be handy in years to come. like i mentioned earlier, this module is allocated, you need not bid for it.. just ballot for the class timings. you will be allocated during semester 2 of year 1 or semester 1 of year 2 if i didn’t remember wrongly. enjoy your time in class.. no worries just chill and interact.
