+# Proposed Level of Achievement
 Apollo 11
 
+# Problem motivation
+As pre-undergraduates waiting to matriculate, or a freshman in Year 1, we were confused by the structure of university academics. We were not sure what modules we needed to graduate from our courses, and what pre-requisites there were for each module. Our only sources of information were friends, seniors, the course curriculum website and perhaps external platforms such as r/NUS. Unfortunately, we were unable to get information exactly catered to not only the course we were interested in, but also our preferences - specialisation, unrestricted electives, residential modules, etc. The information we needed was definitely out there, albeit in bits and pieces which makes academic planning a tedious task. To which, we thought, "Why isn’t there a one stop platform for us to plan our academic journey?"
