The disgusting, horrible truth.

Class of 2009 who took PR2103 pharmacostastistics with me, please refer to ANOVA, notes on Scheffe's and Tukey's tests (page 17-18 of Lecture notes 10)

and this: http://www.richland.edu/james/lecture/m170/ch13-dif.html

deja vu, eh? looks exactly the same.

how did i come upon this? google it. first entry somemore. probably our dear prof must've thought he is damn lucky and clicked on the "i feel lucky" button.

Sem 3: has been another insight into the workings of NUS lecturers. For every lecture we sit in, roughly $50 ++ is paid.

Econs is another stupid module, EC1301, Principles of Econs. For this sem anyway. The lecturer copies wholesale notes, diagrams from a textbook that we were "recommended to buy", even got that salesman down to promote his book. damn, i bought, and found out that notes and diagrams were the same. and there's no alternative textbook. sienz.

Back to stats. Thing is, i'm ok with plagarizing, as long as the lecturer gives a detailed out-of-the-book explanation, worth my money, and worth my goddamn eight am mornings twice a week.

You think he does? NO~~!

he doesn't even go through his lecture notes, his lecture notes are cut and pasted like a kidnapper's ransom (from all kinds of sources that it's not coherent at all), the language is lame with lame jokes, obviously taken from an (American) beginner's stats textbook.

worse still, cos he doesn't go through his lecture notes, he doesn't even notice the many mistakes that the author kindly included. maybe to snag lazy lecturers like him. there was this entire question that we, the audience, had to kindly correct it for him cos one of the values was wrong and we corrected it from proportion, standard deviation, test statistic, critical value, 95% CI... even made a mistake about the conclusion.

when asked about this mistake, he said "oh! the guy who did it must have made a mistake!"

yar. so wtf were you doing, u goddamn-time-waster-of-mine. make me wake up every monday and thursday morning extra early to go for your lectures.

shall find more things to complain next time. damn. all this for that piece of paper.
