The NUS CORS bidding system is supposed to exemplify some sort of economic perfection. Its got all the nice sounding theories down pat: large number of buyers, perfect information, yadda yadda.
Its lost on people like me. I am NOT a rational consumer and i do NOT make informed decisions. I cannot be bothered to study the CORS guide and analyze the bidding updates the way some people do horse racing self-helps. FYI I plonked all my points down evenly distributed among all 3 exposures with not a bidpoint to spare. intelligent, i know.
anyone who isn't a singaporean tertiary student attending what is (un)arguably the most reputable of local tertiary institutes, the NUS CORS system is a system of torture designed to scare students out of studying before the studying even begins. It encourages kiasu-ism and the spreading of groundless rumours. It breeds hatred, fear and suspicion. It just plain annoys me.
Ok thankyou and goodnight and i will rest my soul in the knowledge that i probably managed to very twistedly skew the whole delicate balance of bidding operations.
