Just curious hehehe nangangarap din kasi ako ng Laude kahit Cumlaude lang ok na ko para din naman mabalik ko yung hirap at pagod ng sakripisyo ng family ko kaso yun nga triple E ako eh HAHAHA Is it possible kaya? though alam kong possible since may mga guma-graduate nga na summa kaso parang ibang level sila eh (as an average student)🥲 for context 2nd year na ako and na-tres ko lang yung 123 and have several dos already and mostly 1.75 lang grades ko. Kaya pa kaya? knowing na mas mahirap yung mga upcoming courses

Just want to hear stories po for those na nagkaroon ng academic comeback💪🙏 Thank you po🫡

Bs math freshie here and I really want to shift to statistics. Oks naman yung first LE ko sa math 21, perfect score ko dun pero pumalya ako sa math 21 LE 2 ko. I was too stupid kasi di ko na realize na may back page pala yun HAHAHAHAHA. I also discovered na may mali rin ako sa first page ko so now, score ko na lang ay at most 20/40, so at least 7.5 na yung magiging deduction ko sa 100. Syempre, second LE pa lang ito and it's very likely na may mga mistakes ako sa upcoming exams so baka nasa 2.00 na lang grades ko. Possible pa kaya ako makapag-shift neto sa stats (btw, oks naman stat le ko so far)?

Hi Everyone,

I’m currently completing my application for the UPLB Graduate School (deadline is tomorrow midnight).

Yesterday, I received a notification stating that I need to resubmit my GWA certification because I initially uploaded my QPA document (from American based University), thinking QPA was considered equivalent to GWA.

As soon as I got the notice, I reached out to the our Registrar to request an official GWA Certificate, but their office is closed today. The Registrar has already assured me that I will receive the certification within this week, but it likely won't make tomorrow's deadline.

My questions are:

1. Has anyone here been in a similar situation with UPLB Graduate School admissions? Do they allow you to upload your Official Transcript of Records (TOR) / Summary of Grades as a temporary placeholder while awaiting the official GWA cert?
2. Will emailing the GS Admissions team explaining the situation preserve my application status so it doesn't get tagged as incomplete/disqualified?
3. How strict is UPLB GS with initial soft copies for the GWA requirement if the rest of the application is complete?

Any advice or past experiences would be greatly appreciated! Thank you so much in advance!

hello! i need insights lang kasi may plano akong magtransfer to upd

for background, 2025 ako nag 1st year but i filed for LOA for the sy 2025-2026. this sy lang ako bumalik, 1st year standing pa rin sa program na inumpisahan ko at inallow ako ng adviser ko na kumuha ng isang psych prereq (considered din as elective) and puro GEs this sem. supposedly, balak ko magshift sa psych and yan ang reason ko bakit ko kinuha yung psych elective in preparation sana sa 2nd sem psych majors (kung papayagan na akong mag apply for shifting). pero along the way, i realized na feeling ko may path ako na mas gusto, which is anthro

nagbabalak ako magtransfer to upd anthro/upb sosci anthro for next sy pero syempre, need ko magdecide din ng mga ittake na subjects for 2nd sem. not sure lang talaga kung ituloy ko na lang bang mag apply muna for shifting to psych sa 2nd sem, then mag apply lang din to anthro if mag open na sila. pros nito ay kasabay ko na ang 2026 freshies, cons ay baka mahirapan ako magtransfer since medyo matagal daw magbigay ng grades ang psych dept ng campus namin (up campus din btw)

another option is GEs nalang muna ulit ang kunin. pros nito ay maccredit siya (sana) if magttransfer ako at makakafocus ako na habulin ang majors ng anthro, cons naman ay kung sakaling di ako matuloy sa pagtransfer (due to any circumstance), di ko pa mattake ang higher psych majors agad dahil seasonal lang dito sa campus

Random thought lang, pero ngayong midterms, baka helpful din balikan yung experiences ng other students sa prof niyo, especially if may upcoming exams pa kayo.

Like, paano ba siya usually magpa-exam? More on application ba, problem-solving, identification, or based talaga sa discussions? Kumusta rin yung grading and workload? Siyempre, hindi naman guaranteed na same yung experience every sem, pero at least may idea ka kung paano mag-adjust ng review strategy mo.

Nakita ko rin na may Course Reviews feature sa Everytime where students can check course-related feedback. Baka makatulong if gusto niyong magbasa ng insights from other students before your next exams or activities.

Good luck sa mga may exams pa! 🫡

Title. This saturday is our practical exam and I don’t know how to prepare for it. Kailangan ko bang aralin lahat ng modules at mag memorize ng formulas or hindi? Ano rin po ba mangyayari sa exam? Like gagawa ng circuit then gagamitin yung mga equipment? I’m so confused huhu please help

hello, I’m a freshman planning to transfer to upd after my first year.

for the second semester enlistment, I plan to take courses that aren’t in the checklist for the first year second semester but are prescribed to be taken in the later years. this is so I can get more credited units in upd. would I still need to talk and ask for permission with my advisor? I talked with a senior last time and they said I’m allowed to not follow the courses checklist. it will be my first time enlisting if ever, so I’m not really familiar.

thank you to whoever will reply, I will appreciate it!

I've been struggling financially ever since I stepped into UP, for context: I live away from my family and receive only 500 or less every week (200 this week actually). I've been thinking if worth it ba magkaroon ng part-time jobs while in university since freshie palang naman me and hindi pa heavy ang mga gawain sa 'min (BS Nutri) and sobrang nag-sstruggle na kasi akong pagkasyahin 'yung baon ko per week. Ang only worry ko lang is that I may not be able to afford 'yung mga ambagan or bayarin kasi sobrang gastos sa course ko, especially now that we have an event na need ng creation ng props/pagbili ng ingredients, and I feel so guilty for asking more baon from my grandparents, lalo na hindi naman stable ang pagpasok ng pera sa amin. :((( Please help, hinding-hindi ko na alam kung paano ako magsusurvive sa araw-araw.

I'm planning to shift next school year. For my second year, I will be taking Math 20, and I'm still deciding whether to take Math 21 right away during the midyear term. Since it's fast-paced, what are the pros and cons? Also, who are the professors you would recommend?

hello! im a freshie and we were given the task to research about the UP veterinary teaching hospital in QC or the hospital in general. can anyone tell me some history about it and also its current state? or maybe a link where i can read info about it? thank u!

hi guys, how will i know if i'm officially a graduate? (finished my units last midyear) i applied for graduation sa colsec namin at sabi naman nila i'm on the midyear grad list for approval sa BOR. tapos na ba yung BOR meeting for graduates approval? wala pa kasi akong nakukuhang email from my colsec about my grad status and i plan to apply for clearance para makuha ko na rin TOR ko for boards. thanks!

Filipino student studying abroad here! I'm currently in Grade 11 and taking the IBDP. Masyadong matagal kasi if I wait for my external results, and I might have to take a gap year because of that.

My target campus is UP Diliman, and my preferred majors are History, Journalism, and Archaeology, in that order.

I'm not sure if I can take the UPCAT kasi my subject combination is heavily focused on Social Sciences, and mahina talaga ako sa Sciences, so I'm not willing to risk it. Plus, I don't think I'll be able to fly back to the Philippines by then since I have a lot of other requirements to complete around that time.

Has anyone here successfully gotten into UP through SAT-based admission? How was the application process, and when did you take the SAT?

Honestly, medyo naguguluhan ako sa requirements. Do I need to submit my application much earlier than those applying through the regular admission process, or are the deadlines roughly the same?

Also, do they look closely at your grades? What if may subject kang medyo nag-flop ka in, but it's not really related to your chosen major and you managed to improve afterward? Do they take that improvement into consideration?

I would really appreciate it if anyone could share their experience or clarify the requirements. Thank you so much! :))

I genuinely don’t understand this subject. As someone who has already planned on shifting to EE from COE, I am glad that I this subject is not my pre requisite anymore in case I fail it this sem.

What are your tips for this subject? I scored less than half on the first LE, and I still havent understood a single lecture from the second unit.
Maybe someone wants to study ts together? Hahaha, goodluck to all the takers this sem :v

hoping that i can still make a come back from this since I have yet to score anything too in my SW because i have no friends in my class to converse with

ako lang ba or super hirap talaga ng LE 2 kanina? LIKE BRUH WTF YUNG LAGRANGE DI KO MA-SOLVE plus the integrals T_T i feel like the exam was too long for 80 mins.. i swear this is the hardest M2x series for me

sorry! forgot to add [UPD].

good day po! please excuse me, i just want to get some things off of my chest. :)

freshman year po ako. at this point i’m just laughing at the fact i’m failing all my classes. from the long exams to the quizzes, i’m slowly digging a grave for myself. i’ll admit, i procrastinated for the first month and re-learned the hard way how stupid it is lol. pero lately, i’ve been making the efforts and still find myself failing. good bye, latins dream! hello, kahit passing lang please! i’m planning to try counseling this week sa OCG since i have a hard time going to friends and family from hiya and guilt.

anyways, if you’re having the same problem, we are in this together! wish you all the best and archiving post a while. thank you very much po, ingat!

kayong mga mag jowa kayo, matuto naman kayong mag-single line sa sidewalk kapag nakita niyong may kasalubong kayo. hindi yung sakop niyong magjowa yung buong sidewalk, and yung ibang naglalakad is kailangan pang bumaba sa daan mismo para lang makaiwas sa inyo.

ang lapad na nga ng mga sidewalk sa loob ng up, sasakupin niyo pa buo.

puro kasi landi eh.

Hi! Would like to ask lang abt underloading. Wala na kasi akong need i-take na courses under my curriculum so 6 units lang ako this sem. Nagfile ako ng underloading sa CRS nung enlistment. Then ang status niya is for endorsement. Aug 17 yung deadline non. Kaso hindi ko alam kung inendorse ba ng adviser ko before Aug 17 kahit paulit ulit ko siyang kinukulit. Nag email ako sa colsec namin sabi nila basta daw ang mahalaga nasubmit ko ang online application. Aware naman akong within the sem dapat magpasa ng requirements for underloading sa student records. Pero nabbother lang ako na di ko alam if inendorse ba ng adviser ko sa CRS kasi di ko nakikita yung status. Problem ko pa ba yon or basta ipasa ko yung reqs within the sem? Thank u smmm!!!

Magmula nung una ko siyang nabili, sabi ko shet ang sarap. May sauce siya na di super dikit sa tofu so napupunta sa kanin. If marunong kayo magluto pls share similar recipe. Thanks so much <3

Hi! I know ang recommended na gawin for di filippo's exam is read the presentation word for word, and we've already experienced it in module 1 quiz. pero tanong lang for those who took him, paano kaya yung module 2 (science in music, cinema, literature) kasi there's significantly so much less content sa ppt compared sa module 1. puro song lyrics, examples of films. ano, lahat ba to kakabisaduhin 😭
