All my seniors were saying that it’s the toughest IS course, it’s a killer course ... But in fact I believe that it’s the best thing that has happened to me. The knowledge and skills that I have gained is phenomenal . I actually feel that I am at least capable of working in a team and making BOSS for SMU in the future ;-) ”

18. Take Aways “ valuable lessons learnt” Jeremy says : “ I think that the best thing about SE is about project management and learning how to use each other talent’s to the best of their abilities. Also, we have to learn to be accommodating and work together in pairs . There is more to just sitting in front of a computer and code. Also, pair programming allows us to learn and teach people at the same time , thus enabling the project to progress faster.”
