The Three Musketeers Who Created The TakeoffApps

I was sitting in my room Managing the Newcomers 31- GUC Facebook group when I saw a post that grasped my full attention , you see I was trying for the past two weeks to establish something like a student book with the aid of insider and some GUC friends so that whenever a newcomer enter the GUC he would just surf the book and all the information is there , but then I saw this post on the group " The GUC Student Hand Book by Takeoffapps ". Someone has actually made it , someone put an effort and created finally a student handbook for the university and it even gets better ; the moment you open the link you see the effort of the three brilliant talented founders of Takeoffapps , they included almost every aspect about the GUC from terminology to GUC goes Berlin which was established only 1 year ago and has been since a great attraction to the newcomers before the enrolled the students.

For almost two months I have been trying with the aid of every student in the GUC to answer the newcomers questions concerning the majors, subjects , books , studying materials , Professors , Teaching assistants , Lectures , Tutorials , and many many other questions and these talented young engineers just put it all in one place in an astonishing organized style with all the beautiful graphics for the show, a website worth of visiting http://guc.takeoffapps.com/ .

Recently they designed a new website according to their word "for making use of old academic and non academic books" in-which you register with your GUC email and mobile number and post the book you would like to sell and the price and others would see the list and someone would want to buy the book and contacts you to tie the deal. Extremely brilliant if you ask me , simple idea yet useful so check the website http://www.ketab.gy/ .

So I think it is time that we give these three talented young men some recognition and get to know them better and give them a chance to tell their story of success and how did they manage to pull this off .



Wait for the interview with the entire team setting an example to every Gucians that if you have a dream all you got to do is push yourself to the extreme .

GUC Faculty of Engineering Alumni

Have you ever wondered as a GUC engineering student where did all the graduated classes of engineering do after graduation ??!! did they work abroad or here in Egypt? did they pursue an academic career? was it at the GUC or at another university ? , or did they work at a multinational company ?? what are the chances out there for a GUC engineering graduate? what are the courses we should take to enhance our capabilities??!!!! All these questions start in your head the moment you step into the university and apply for the Engineering Faculty. let's not be kidding ourselves , many people just don't care about anything but the fact that they can actually find a job after they graduate .

GUC Engineering 2012-2013 Newcomers Advice's

1) The first year is the most important year , you will be studying few number of courses each semester and each course will have large number of credit hours like mathematics which weighs 8 credit hours , so You need to score a high grade in the first year and believe me when I say that the first year is the easiest so if you got a A or A+ in your first year rest assured that this will help you during your next 4 years plus if you adjusted yourself to a studying style that guarantees to you a good grade you will stick to this style for the next years in college as you will be adapted to it. 2) If you are the kind of person who studies only 2 weeks before exams , this will NOT work at the GUC and will cause you sometimes to fail some courses if you are not usually a studying person type so in order to avoid this , Please study week by week and finish what you have first , sometimes you will have deadlines that will make you postpone studying for some time and this is normal at t...
