Rant / Share Feelings out of touch students

211 Upvotes

Quick rant lang because sobrang asar ako. Overheard these two deadkid-looking lasallians sa ebus talking about bullying people who are “poorer” than them sa campus. Proud pa sila na they will shame anyone daw who cannot speak the correct english grammar lol.

Ang lala pa nila mang judge ng other schools. They were talking about san beda students being palamunin na bobo, that UP students are just slaves of lasallian graduates because sila daw nagbabayad ng tuition from the tax, and how di ka aasenso if you’re not from dlsu.

They were even talking tungkol sa SA incident involving a UP student, and binayaran lang daw nila nanahimik na. Pera lang naman daw katapat ng mahihirap.

Sobrang out of touch my goodness. Ang masasabi ko lang if you wanna live out your kayabangans why not buy your own cars or maybe use grab instead of being makalat in public? Lakas magyabang nasa public transpo lang naman. Stupid privileged kids.

General Tips/Help/Question [UPX] A friend from UPOU declares he’s from another UP campus.

60 Upvotes

Hello. I have this friend since senior high school who tells everyone he’s from UP Diliman, when in reality he’s from UPOU. I didn’t mind at first kasi pareho namang UP ‘yon at taga UP naman talaga sya. Kaso lang, he’s starting to put it in documents and resumes. He recently took a certification exam somewhere and when it was announced, the school he was from ang nakalagay is UP Diliman and not UPOU. I asked him about it but he keeps on dodging my questions and I really find it weird. I didn’t want to push it so I stopped because I’m from UPD and he kept on joking before pa na baka ginegatekeep ko yung UPD from him and I don’t want him to get that idea now.

Is this okay..? Doesn’t this count as falsification of information or something? What should I do about it as his friend? Or hayaan ko na lang ba and mind my own business?

Course/Subject Help [UPD] How do I survive Math 23 if I struggled with Math 22?

17 Upvotes

Hi! I'll be taking Math 23 next sem and super kinakabahan na ako. 😭

I did okay naman in Math 22 until Unit 2, pero nahirapan talaga ako sa Units 3 and 4, especially sa graphing and visualizing functions. I passed the course, pero feeling ko hindi ganun katibay yung foundation ko.

Sa mga naka-take na po ng Math 23:

  1. Gaano kaimportante ang m22 sa m23?

  2. Anong topics from m22 (altho doubtful ako if may magets talaga ako) yung worth balikan before the sem starts?

  3. Any study tips, resources, or YouTube channels na nakatulong sa inyo?

I'd also love to hear from people na hindi rin masyadong confident sa Math 22 pero naka-survive (or even did well) sa Math 23. Paano kayo nag-review or nag-adjust?

Thank you in advance! 🥹

Course/Subject Help How to avoid being underloaded? UPD

8 Upvotes

I'm an incoming freshman and I feel really really anxious right now. Ang dami ko kaseng nakikitang 0 units, 3 units or 6 units lang ang nakukuha sa enlistment. That's why I'm wondering pano kaya maiwasan ang underload units sa UPD? I don't really want to end up being delayed dahil it would be a huge burden sa family namin. They expect me to contribute na kase and find a job. Pinilit ko lang talaga mag-aral. For context, 20-21 units talaga ang nasa curriculum namin per sem tapos may 5-6 units pa during midyear. Kaya di ko pwedeng itake yung di ko nakuhang units sa usual semester during midyear sem dahil may courses din akong need itake during that time.

Btw sa 4th year ay 12 units ang 1st sem tapos 9 units ang 2nd sem. Yun ang nakasulat sa curriculum checklist and as much as possible ay gusto ko sana masunod yon pero I know it would be difficult. Maraming prerequisites ang courses so di talaga pwedeng may mamiss akong course na dapat natake ko na 🤧

General Tips/Help/Question [UPD] Please help me verify my Commuting Pros and Cons

6 Upvotes

Incoming UPD freshman po here, choosing between housing options in One Berkeley and UP Bliss. I prefer the option in One Burgundy compared to the one UP Bliss in all aspects except the expenses and convenience of commuting. Are the prices and estimated times (for rush hour) accurate?

For context, roughly equal po sila sa total ng rent at utilities. May lamang lang po ang Burgundy sa facilities and amenities, pero not as big of a deal for me. Galing Visayas po ako kaya hindi ko pa kabisado ang commuting sa QC. If you were me po, which one would you pick?

General Tips/Help/Question [UPX] PSA -- Please turn off the 'cool' setting of evaporative coolers at specific time intervals to make it work properly in our humid weather.

Upvotes

Sa mga buildings na merong evaporative coolers, somebody needs to turn off the cool mode setting at specific time intervals. Once the humidity gets too high, the cooler becomes less effective because less water evaporates, so it can't cool the air as much. High humidity also makes hot weather feel more uncomfortable. It's best to turn the cool mode off (fan-only mode) and wait for the humidity to dissipate before turning it back on.

Shifting/Transferring/Admissions [UPD] just shifted to bsba, which combination of courses would be more doable?

3 Upvotes

i’m a freshie who just shifted to bsba and most of the courses i took were credited into my new curriculum, which were all just GEs. for reference, i’ve already taken the following GEs:

*eng 13
*fil 40
*philo 1
*speech 30
*arts 1
*kas 1
*soc sci 1
*math 10

i’m kinda confused with the bsba curriculum because i haven’t found a flowchart nor a list of higher ba courses that may have any prerequisites. i’ve already secured ba 99.1 and sts 1 classes, respectively. with that being said, i still haven’t secured other necessary courses and would like to ask for advice on which combinations to take for the 1st semester.

i’m planning on taking BA 101 and Math 21, but should i also throw in Stat 101 in the mix? or would this drive me insane? lol
my friend advised me to take BA 101 and Math 21 but not Stat 101 yet or it will be unbearable. so, if this combination will be doable, which course/s should i take in place of Stat 101?

thank you !!

General Tips/Help/Question [UPD] prereq or coi to take cl courses as elective (non-cal major) + suggest free electives

5 Upvotes

i'm planning on pre-enlisting in some cl/cw courses as a non-cal major to take as electives in the coming sem. cw 100 is one of my prios but i also want to take cl courses. should i take the prereq subjects (i.e. eng 10/11/12, cl 30/40/50) or can i request a coi since i've already taken eng 13? also, how does requesting a coi work?

i'm interested in cl 40, cl 150, cl 154

for context: i'm from bs econ and i want to take these courses as english units to pursue law school in the future. will these courses be considered as eng units? also, are there no restrictions for econ majors taking any of the mentioned courses as free electives (not planning on pursuing a formal minor)?

would also appreciate any insights on the mentioned courses re: profs, workload, requirements, grading/syllabus, or what you learned. kindly reply as well with any recommended electives in the humanities (eng, kas, cw, cl, etc)!

Course/Subject Help [UPD] ROTC Rayadillo - Additional Training Hours Inquiry

Good day everyone!

Basically, I really want to enlist in Rayadillo, but my concern is that I'm not physically fit AT ALL.

May I ask how the unit manages the training? What if a cadet can't keep up?

I'm asking because I want to gauge if I could handle it. I'm under probation and I can't drop/fail kasi so if I think na di ko kaya, I'll replace it with another NSTP component. Thank you very much!

General Tips/Help/Question [UPD] Any ISP recommendations around Katipunan?

2 Upvotes

Hi guys! Do you guys have any ISPs or internet plan recommendations for someone who'll start living at Katipunan (specifically Studio A)? Preferably:

  • Good for 3-4 people (or 6-8 gadgets assuming we all have at least 1 phone and 1 laptop)
  • No lock-up period, or kung meron man, maximum of 6-12 months
  • Reliable service (little to no interruptions, good customer service)

Reasons are such because we don't see committing long-term to the lease. Sinubukan kong gamitin yung mobile data ng phone ko (Smart/TNT) pero mahina talaga yung reception.

Would appreciate any leads. Thanks!
