Nus cors


Nus corsDoes the NUS CORS system suck?
Not really. Only when the bidders exceed the vacancy, the closing period sucks as we don't know how much to bid.

How do I check the CORS results? When will it be released?
Usually by 8pm on the same day of round closing, the results will be sent to your NUS mail. Sometimes, it can (and has) taken up to 1130pm.

How can I get more points in CORS?
Two avenues - Online Student Feedback Exercise (100 points) and CORS Survey (30 General points). Notifications to take them will be sent to your NUS e-mail when the time arrives.

What do the different CORS rounds mean?
Go here, scroll all the way to the bottom and download the file under 'Here are the detailed bidding round descriptions and activities'

When should I start bidding for my modules?
Get the modules as early as possible. If not the MPE (link for SOC students) exercise, secure it during round 1 as the fight for popular modules can get tougher in the later rounds with more competition.

Can I really plan my own timetable in NUS?
Quite hard to believe that too when I entered NUS, but yes, you can, and you have to. Use the TimeTable Builder to assist you. Be sure to select the correct year and semester! There is one unofficial timetable [outdated?] here and a more recent one here. As with every downloadable software, take security precautions. I have NOT used them personally and am providing links only for those adventurous ones.
