    She is right, I joined UCT with no history of getting 50%,I was flowing on 90 - 100% from my undergrad Varsity, it was my first time getting a 50% when I was at UCT, it was then I realized that UCT is a real deal, studying there is really a day n night deal, but thanks God I made it afterwards.

      I studied a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering degree at University of Cape Town for 5 years. The lectures during my time were racist particularly there was one Indian his name was Prof. Marcus who was a pure racist. In my thesis was supervised by Prof. Tait who was the head of the department at my time he was very truthful in regards to my potential. I went on to secure a work through him with Prof. Benet assistance.

    This was the kind of episode that proved that Mac and Sol are broadcasters cause it was a proper "13PG" interview as no profanities were used except when Mac said "Fuck Adriaan/Basson". It seems like Mac and Sol behaves according to the guest's demeanor and I'm sure they're able to pick that up before they start recording. As for Prof she's well spoken and this is her interview where she didn't interrupt her interviewer often even her tone was cool, calm and collected cause at the other interview I've seen her she came across fierce. I think we must have her back one day as she's worth listening to.

    I just love this Mama ❤❤ i could listen to her over and over. After watching this episode i went to Sizwe's podcast and will check out others. She was so relaxed on Podcast and chill vs SMW podcast. 😅😅 She couldn't let go of the 3 years old😅.
