I have no more meetings until January.
For Quarter 3 (February to April), I will be teaching these
courses:
P1 (9:15-11:30) EF7/Eng10
P2 (12-2:15) EF7/Eng10
In order to go to EF7, you have to successfully complete
EF6.
Successfully completing WI567 is not the same. WI567 is a
supplemental course.
EF6 is the core course.
