I felt that the labs helped to reinforce concepts, while attempts to solve past year questions helped understanding. The first part focuses on Assembly Programming using an SCE’s own VIP language. For second part, I was confused quite a bit when I missed the initial few lectures after Mid-Term break. For revision, I made a 4-page summary for the second part, containing most lecture materials.
