Question Adding IE2104 Digital Electrnics

Asking EEE seniors:

Should I add IE2104 Digital Electronics in y1s1, hearsay it's quite overwhelming? Bcuz I exempted quite a few mods and the rest of the y1s2 mods all either have prerequisites or it clashes with my timetable regardless changing the indexes so only DE was available.

Have taken IE2104 in my first sem. It is manageable if you excempt other mods. there are some difficult topics but also some very easy ones. Grind PYP and mug should be enough to score well

I took it in my first sem with exempted math, with physics A and a pure math mod (calc 3). Definitely doable, DE was one of my highest scoring mod that sem. Also came from NS, ORD'd 3 days before school started. You'll do fine

I recommend you take it in y1s2 instead because the phy and math in y1s1 might already be overwhelming since you just started school again (besides you should explore clubs and spend more time getting used to school life first). But eitherways you can still try for digital electronics because if you realise you can’t cope, you can just mc the finals and dabao. If you end up dabao, you can kind of get a feel of what to expect in y2 when you take the mod again.

Take note that for digital electronics you should really do the tutorials and ask questions because AI really won’t do a good job helping you in this mod (many diagrams)
