Grade: 
A
How I got a good grade: 

Hello guys,

Hope all are doing good. I am Anika Bushra Lamisa. I did the Computer Information System (MIS105) course with our respected faculty, Mr. Adeyl Khan and got an A. I can say that I have actually learned many things under all the contents of this course. The course is basically the introduction of information system in business purposes.

Well, Information system related any topic was always a nightmare to me. When I took MIS105 course, it was quit challenging for me to do this course. During the introductory class, sir introduced the whole course outline and website to us. There are so many assignments and presentations, lab classes, IOAs on
each chapter etc. I felt so nervous and was questioning myself, "Is it possible for me to complete all these?" I had already started loosing my all confidence on this course. But my confidence were backed up again when I started attending the classes and understanding the lecture topics. Also I am greatful to
my faculty because without his help and support I could not achieve the A.

Different person's have different ways of study. I have too and I am here to share some simple tips and tricks of mine regarding this course. Trust me, if you follow these tips, you will ended up with a decent grade In Sha Allah.

  • Stay connected with your faculty. If you don't understand any topic, please do contact with faculty. He is always available in his office hours.
  • Course website: Always keep your eyes on course website. Because all informations and notices are uploaded on course website.
  • Attending all the classes: It is very important to attend all the classes to understand the lecture topics and also important to keep updates on every task such as assignments, IOAs, lab class's schedule.

How to study: The very first rule of studying this course is to keep patience and study hard. It is very important. You must have to take pressure by your own and try to complete all the activities that are given. Spend at least 1hour everyday in this course. I prefer understanding rather than memorizing the topic. You can take help from book for better and clear information. But in some cases such as definitions, you have to memorize all of them.

Bonuses: Don't miss any opportunity of getting bonuses. Don't means DON'T. Do all the activists at any cost to achieve bonuses. That's it.

IOAs and Mid/final exams: Give all IOAs. Though some of them are optional, I suggest you to give all IOAs. Because maximum true/false and MCQs are given from there in Mids and final. For short and broad questions, practice all the sample questions. It will help you to prepare yourself for Mids and Final exam. I hope you will get 90% marks like me.

Assignments and presentations: Are you scared of assignments and presentations like me?? Don't be scared. Just do it with your group members, divide topics, assist each other, work together and stay connected with each other. Assignment should be straight forwarded and relevant to the topic. You can also review your assignment by the faculty.

Lab classes: It is very important to follow all the instructions that is provided by faculty. I repeat, FOLLOW ALL THE INSTRUCTIONS. Try to bring your laptop and do all the activities on it. If you do not
want to take extra pressure, you will need to do at least 60% lab work and submit it just after the class. It will save your time and energy too.

I outlined all the steps that I followed and achieved the A by the grace of Almighty. I hope my tips will inspire you to be a part of this "Hall of FAME". I know you can. Good luck.
