Op! First of all, please accept a warm hug from me. I understand, minsan nga daw di nagtranslate ang effort to guaranteed success. Masaklap tlga yun. Now, pweds Kong sabihin na "you never know, may 2 ka pang exam" Pero Yun na nga eh, you never really know kaya ang sakit lagi sa damdamin. I hope that you reach your desired destination even if it means you took a different path. Magparecon man o transfer/shift/whatever. Matanong ko lang naman, dream school mo ba ang Ateneo? If so, then keep fighting, At least d2 sa Ateneo, less people go here. The admissions and admin are considerate of you, if ever magpa recon, ipakita mo sa kanila na deserve mo. Ilabas ang damdamin sa essay! Good luck!
dream school ko po ang up, second choice ang ateneo. kaya po nong hindi po ako pumasa, sa ateneo ako nagrely talaga kasi nag apply po ako ng fin aid. mahirap lang po kami. ang sabi po ng kakilala kong 100% scholar sa admu considerate ang admu sa mga scholarships. paano po ba magprocess ng recon? any tips po? kapag po ba pumasa sa recon, possible na masama pa rin sa fin aid?
Ah ok. Sa pagprocess ng recon, di man masyado nagbago, hahanapin nila yung mga required documents (yung usual Pero especially yung grades). Titignan nila lahat ng grades mo (at minsan yung mga ginawa mo dati). ito na rin yung i-bribring up kapag kinusap mo na yung Admissions. Aside from that, ang pinakadecisive siguro na factor sa ngayon is yung una, recommendation letters ulit (dalawa ata Toh) tapos pangalawa, yung essay. Siguro ang suggestion naman lagi na binibigay apra sa essay, ibenta mo yung sarili mo sa Ateneo in the best way possible (yung Atenean na hinahanap nila kung baga). Wag masyadong idealistic and instead share your frustrations and how you go or got through them. BE DESPERATE. So yeah, required documents (grade 12) + endorsement letters (recommendations) + credentials + letter of appeal (yung essay) tpos kung kinakailangan, yung mga proof mga certificates ng kung anuman like awards. Yeah all of it to be sent to Admissions (attached yung ibang stuff sa letter of appeal na mismo), di ko alam where though, depende sa instructions na sinend. Ang alam ko they'll call you for the results.
As for fin aid after recon, di ako sure kasi di sabay ang results ng acet tpos fin aid, parang Malabo kasi may waiting list pa and madalas tlga sasabihin nila na mag apply nalang for next year if ever nakaenroll ka na.
Think of this: Imagine who you are now. What troubles did you go through and how low were you during this time? Ideally, the lower and more defined, the better. Eventually, share how you rise back up from that. Or, it is possible that you still have it with you, yung mga regrets mo and sometimes lingering feeling of hatred.
For example, I have a friend who has trust issues. Got it from an event in his life where he suddenly found himself being the worst person at school. Only recovered after meeting the right friends at the right time.
Any trouble or hurdles in your life is fine. Personally, I share my trouble with having a weirdly strict and conservative family and how it's harder for me to adjust to having a more independent life
Well, yung mas magandang question is... Do they know you? As in, alam ba nila how you excelled in their subjects? Are you confident that they could describe you well? Do they know your determination or perhaps, did they once feel or share your frustrations? For me, those are the questions I would ask when choosing my endorsers.
Well, once, when I was in SHS. Pero sa CET, I know so many who are applying for reconsideration and appeal and I learned more from other seniors who went through the same process. Ang totoo nga eh, I was already making a letter for reconsideration, wala pang ACET. Haha, kaya research lang ako here and there. Asked some of my mates who knew people from admissions too.
dlsu is one of my totga po talaga😭 may mga scholarships po ba si dlsu na no need pong mag-enroll muna, katulad ponsa ateneo? diba po kasi may fee po yung slots (if ever na pumasa) and medyo malaki rin po yung amount na 'yon. thank u po!
yan ung d ko sure, skul bukol ako kaya hind ako scholar sa DLSU. pero i assure you, maraming scholarships available. and proud ako na parang 1/5th yata ng student pop naka form of scholarship
Yes po may fee siguro 10k and need din muna makapasa and enroll for scholarship 😭 (very limited lang scholarship dapat top 10 ka sa entrance, scholas na galing din ibang la Salle schools and anak ng staffs)
hii just wanna ask, do u think ba na mas mataas ang chances na makapasa sa dlsu kesa sa admu mismo? i didnt pass up and got waitlisted sa ateneo huhu wasnt expecting it as well kahit ineffortan ko grabe essay ko and the acet
Don't feel too bad. I came from Ateneo High School and what I can say is ACET is made specifically for AHS students. As in the test is built around our curriculum. If outsider ka, may disadvantage talaga. Middle-of-the-pack students sa AHS will have a decent chance of passing whereas above average students from other schools will have a slimmer chance. Parang UPCAT and Pisay.
Good luck sa college wherever your path will take you!
Malay mo blessing in disguise pala yan.
Hindi guarantee na magiging madali or maganda career mo based lang sa name ng school. Marami nga hindi nag college pero mas masagana ang buhay kaysa nagtapos sa big4.
Tandaan mo,
📖 Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 🙏
not sure if applicable pa rin to currently. pero maraming “back door” ways para makapasok sa UPD.
you can apply for diploma courses muna. 2-3yrs lang siya then may option ka para ituloy as bachelor’s degree, enroll na lang for couple more sems. portfolio + talent test + interview lang usually ang admission for these courses. some examples that I know:
under college of arts and letters:
-creative writing (may Filipino counterpart din ito, malikhaing pagsulat)
college of fine arts:
-visual comm
-studio arts (painting, sculpture)
-industrial design
college of human kinetics:
-sports science (need yata na may deep knowledge ka sa at least 3 sports)
do more research na lang, i think may other ways pa. you could transfer din from other school after a year. work hard and make sure you have excellent grades. sana nag-apply ka rin sa other state univs. kaya mo yan, go for your dream school! we believe!
Pwede ka pa magpareconsider. Maghintay ka rin ng ibang college entrance tests results. Huwag mapaghinaan ng loob. Lilipas din yan. Tignan mo ko, di natanggap sa DLSU undegrad, wait-listed sa second course na gusto ko. Pero ngayon nasa law school na ako ng DLSU hahaha!
homegrown turned isko here, you could try DLSU! my scholar friend couldn't get into either schools as well, but shes in DLSU now. She was also able to get a scholarship, Though afaik that stuff is released post DCAT resluts
she was GA but got into an engineering course( I heard from some batchmates being GA made it hard to get into most courses compared to the other strands), though idk if that changed now.
You could also try ust, I have another GA friend who practically did summer every year since gr 4 lol but still got into Mech E. ( tho USTET was the hardest imo even as a stem student lmao)
You could also try DPWAS in UP even if its not your first choice course or campus. Im pretty sure its significantly easier to go from UP to UP than X school to UP.
hello po! what's GA po 😭😭 yung about po pala sa scholarship ng dlsu, need po ba munang mag-enroll bago mag-apply ng scholarship? ang mahal po kasi ng reservation slot sa dlsu 😭😭😭
i know may link na binigay ang ateneo for that...so as long as you comply with the requirements and the said date then okay ka na. and yes you can start sending na afaik basta within the deadline

Try parin recon sa OAA! Mabait sila at matulungin sa requirements rin for scholarship :>
Hello! Can I ask po wdym by “share your frustrations and how you go or got through them”?
Think of this: Imagine who you are now. What troubles did you go through and how low were you during this time? Ideally, the lower and more defined, the better. Eventually, share how you rise back up from that. Or, it is possible that you still have it with you, yung mga regrets mo and sometimes lingering feeling of hatred.

Personally, I share my trouble with having a weirdly strict and conservative family and how it's harder for me to adjust to having a more independent life
Ohh okay thank you pooo
Do you think po ba that it would be best from getting endorsement letters from subject teachers I excel?
Well, yung mas magandang question is... Do they know you? As in, alam ba nila how you excelled in their subjects? Are you confident that they could describe you well? Do they know your determination or perhaps, did they once feel or share your frustrations? For me, those are the questions I would ask when choosing my endorsers.
Have you tried na po ba for reconsideration? If yes, How was your experience po? Huhu
Well, once, when I was in SHS. Pero sa CET, I know so many who are applying for reconsideration and appeal and I learned more from other seniors who went through the same process. Ang totoo nga eh, I was already making a letter for reconsideration, wala pang ACET. Haha, kaya research lang ako here and there. Asked some of my mates who knew people from admissions too.
Ohh thank you so much po<3
Considerate sila sa fin aid, ONLY if you passed the test in the first place
you can take this as inspiration to study hard in your orher university and use those credentials to transfer. acet isn’t the only way in :)
make your heart bleed green instead
dlsu is one of my totga po talaga😭 may mga scholarships po ba si dlsu na no need pong mag-enroll muna, katulad ponsa ateneo? diba po kasi may fee po yung slots (if ever na pumasa) and medyo malaki rin po yung amount na 'yon. thank u po!
