hello po! incoming freshie po :)
just wanted to ask po if realistic po ung 2k weekly po na food fees and all huhu. im worried po kasi na since mataas po ang cost of living, probably the food costs as much din po. and i think wala rin pong nearby palengke—so baka sa robman din po groceries but hindi ko po sure if relatively cheaper po doon.
thank you po!
helloo!! can anyone enlighten me po with rsa? pwede bang i-defer ang return service years if sa upcm itutuloy ang medicine? ganito pa rin ba even for the incoming students ng upm? i heard po kasi na magkakaroon ng strict implementation ang rsa, wherein hindi na pwedeng pagsamahin ang service years ng undergrad at med school (like dapat tapusin muna ‘yung rsa for undergrad bago mag-proceed sa med school kahit na sa upcm naman itutuloy), is this true po? thank you!
Hi! Posting on behalf of a shy friend who’s an incoming BS Biochem freshman at UPM and is currently looking for someone willing to split expenses for a 2BR condo near the campus 🥹
She doesn’t have a specific unit yet because she wants to look together depending on the preferred condominium complex, location, and budget of whoever’s interested. Most of the places she’s checked would range around ₱14k–16k per person monthly depending on the unit and setup.
Also, if ever someone wants to share their room with another friend (like a bunk bed setup), she doesn’t mind at all! They can just split the expenses for that room among themselves. She mainly wants her own room/space for privacy and studying, while still getting condo amenities and a safer environment. Renting a studio alone is honestly more expensive than this option 😭
She’s very quiet and introverted at first, but she’s nice naman and willing to make friends. She just genuinely doesn’t know people from UPM yet, so finding possible roommates has been difficult.
If interested, feel free to message me so I can connect you with her!
Hello!
UPCM’s results are estimated to be released this week or next week.
Does anyone know kung gaano katagal mag-deliberate ang admissions ng upcm?
hii, qualified for admission in upm so im currently trying to find a place to stay at. options as of now are in vista gl across taft and birch tower. any comments po sa mga units na yun? also, if u can recommend me other units, it would be so so appreciated
btw budget namin actually is around 18k, although yung birch tower is currently cinoconsider namin kahit 20k sha bc may kasama na din wifi and i don’t have to cross taft na since nasa p. gil side sya.
I’ve been feeling down the entire day. The only goal I truly had this CETs season was INTARMED. It still is.
I found out earlier that they distributed the emails. I heard that it may still not be over since others might decline, and there’s also the possibility that they haven’t sent all of the emails for the 100 qualifiers. But still.
I passed the accelerated medicine program of PLM and got my first choice both in UPM and Ateneo. Doon lang naman ako nag-exam. Pero I just feel so stupid kung hindi ako makakapasok sa INTARMED. Sorry if this sounds insensitive—alam ko yung iba pinoproblema pa yung college nila—but everyone around me knows that this is what I really want.
Everyone keeps messaging me, “Nag-email na daw. Kumusta?” I don’t even know how to answer them.
I don’t just feel disappointed—it feels like I’ve lost hope.
Having a nice academic record and coming from a science high school where people expect a lot is difficult. But honestly, I don’t care that much about what others think. All I really want is to get into the program so I can help reduce the financial burden on my mom. She’s a solo parent, and this felt like the one thing I could do to help her. I want her to be able to retire early—yung tipong 50 pa lang siya, may doctor na siya at wala na siyang pinapaaral.
May pag-asa pa ba ako? Tapos na po ba talaga magsend ng emails? Ang sakit na kasi. I did everything. I did my best. Sinubsob ko sarili ko for months. Sumusuko na katawan ko noon, pero yung determination ko, nandun pa rin.
good evening po! wala masyadong post regarding sa occupational therapy po but i would like to ask few things lang po (incoming freshie)
planning to take this po sana as premed but willing din po ako magwork as OT while studying med even as part time once i finish the degree. thank you so much po sa pagsagot!
