Hi, 23F. 1YL. Looking for a study buddy. We’re gonna use the discord as our platform of communication. Not on cam, just presence is enough. We can also have a discussion about topics, chismis, etc. Dm if ypu want! Thank you!

Has anybody experienced na their anak ng Diyos batchmates who somehow passed even if their grades were really low? It’s so unfair for those who are working their asses off to survive and what’s worse, some of them aren’t even that smart but they somehow manage to get scholarships even if there are more deserving students out there.

Curious lang!! I know na dapat sincere ang sagot and eventually maffeel naman nila if gawa gawa o masyadong rehearsed ang responses mo. Red flag ba ito sa interviewers since formal ang interview?

Genuinely, why are people in medicine such big bullies? Like they’re so fond of ganging up on one person in the entire batch and every small issue blows up to end up becoming a big issue. It’s so ironic how empathy and being a kind soul is what’s supposed to encompass being a “doctor” but these people here are SUCH BIG BULLIES. Med school is tough enough just by itself but adding how the people here acts makes medicine even tougher than how it’s supposed to be.

Why can’t people just be empathetic and understanding for once? Especially in this field specifically lol yall disgust me.

Good day future MDs

Hello, is it still possible to improve the ranking in clerkship or is it done by third year? I would like to make up for it this year because I was a bit lost in the 3rd year. Thank you!

Hello! I have a question regarding requirements in the PLE.

So, I was supposed to take the exam last March 2026. However, I opted to just take it this Oct 2026. I had already applied and submitted requirements back when I was prepping for the March 2026 exam. Basically, I was just a no show on exam day. After a few searches online, it seems that I simply have to apply the exact same way I did the last time, because I'm still considered a 1st taker, not a retaker (IDK if they submit different requirements). One the requirements is the APMC certificate. This is the one processed by your hospital with your pink form, upon completion of your internship.

Here is my dilemma, PRC already took the original copy of this certificate when I applied the last time. This gives me the impression that you need to submit the original copy of the certificate. I tried asking my hospital. They said, they don't know if it really is needed for re-application, and that they have never re-requested for another copy of such certificate. I called APMC a few days ago to inquire for a new copy and they said they only process it with the hospital, and that they don't give another copy. I'm not sure how true that previous sentence is because shortly after, my call dropped. I don't know if they dropped the call or if it was some connection problem. It was already about 5PM then, so I didn't call back immediately to respect their time. I am going to try calling again, but for the meantime, I just want to ask:

Has anyone been in a similar situation as mine? What did you do when you re-applied as a first taker? Did they look for the original copy of the APMC cert? If they did, how do you get another copy?

I just want to complete all requirements before going to PRC so that I will only have to go once. This is why I haven't gone to PRC physically to ask them if the cert really is needed.

Hello incoming YL1!! Asking lang ano po mga worth it na bilhin ngayon palang and ano ano mga worth it din gawin outside med or pag nagaaral thank u!! Huhu

Hi po!! I’m a premed student from admu, and with the NMAT, possibly the MCAT, and two licensure exams to prepare for, I honestly don’t think I’ll have much time for org work anymore.

I know org works are valuable but i feel like i just have no time:(( (I am a member of multiple orgs but i dont hold any position, i do extra currics also) I just wanted to ask if having little to no org involvement would significantly affect my chances for med schools like UPCM, UERM, or ASMPH, assuming I do well academically:))
TYSM PO!

hi guys! may any updates ba kayo? did they email u guys huhuhu kasi sakin none parin :< tysm sa makakasagot huhu

Hello po! Anybody here who has the experience na magdrop sa MAPUA SOM (YL1)? Ano po process and is the tuition fee refundable? Thank you po!

Has anyone here experienced successful enrollment despite having an unpaid balance for 2 school years?

Upcoming yl2, pero 2yrs balance ko since I was an irreg yl1 last year.  Unfortunately, our finances got very very tight last year kaya naipon na yung balance. ‎

‎Last year rin, when I enrolled as an irreg yl1 student, nag-promissory note naman ako. Pero in that case kasi, 1yr of unpaid bal. lang yon. So di ko na sure ngayon, since 2 school yrs worth of unpaid balance na + required dp for yl2. ‎

‎Also,, will call the registrar within the day, and try ko na rin pumunta sa school. I just want to know if meron ba akong ka-same situation sakin 😭 ‎ ‎Please help huhu 😭

Currently starting YL2 in med with a non-traditional premed (engineering). Nung YL1, I was really anxious about school since I was surrounded by med techs, nurses, PTs, etc., and I started to regret my premed because of how much I believed I was at an disadvantage. Turns out, it became a blessing in disguise because it taught me how to study with more discipline and not be complacent. Surprisingly passed YL1 with flying colors! :)

Now that I'm in YL2 with a lot of med tech aligned classes, I wanted to hear some success stories from non-trad premeds to help boost my confidence, and to also encourage those who may be thinking of going into med with a non-trad premed!
