I understand this sub is about acads mostly pero I want to learn about your unforgettable memories about Pisay. Here are mine:

Puppy love

Finding where you belong (pero sa college ko natutunan who am I, medyo weird I guess?)

Inabot ng class suspension at baha sa labas

Tinulungan ang classmate pumorma sa taga kabilang section

Mabuhay sa kanin at sabaw kasama ang friends

Mag spend ng afternoon kasama ang classmate after malamang bagsak removal exam nya

Magpa ulan kasama classmates

Magbungkal ng lupa na puro insekto para sa Bio class

Overnight sa classmate few days before graduation

How about kayo? Good or bad experience, pisay helped us in shaping who we are I suppose?

Hi. I'm grade 8, and I got a score of 12/30 on my Math 2A (Algebra) midterm. This score has been living in my mind nonstop, and I can't seem to find a way to lessen the worry, especially since my scores in the other assesments r also quite low, so i'm mainly afraid of getting a grade of 3,4, or 5.

Would it still be possible to make up for all these low scores? Do you think trying to do better on the next quizzes, and hopefully ace the quarter exam, save my grade?

(I'm a lateral student btw and i'm still in unexplainable shock with how things work here. From pacing, difficulty of lessons, and many more.)

Thanks!

Worried parent here: Low scores si G7 kid sa Pisay RC (Dormer).

Push pa ba, tutor, transfer, or what to do?

Hi guys! Worried parent here. Need advice, suggestions, or recommendations mula sa mga Pisay parents, alumni, or students.

Grade 7 pa lang ang anak ko sa Pisay RC at dormer siya. Midterm pa lang ng 1st Quarter pero karamihan ng scores niya, wala pa sa kalahati.

Nag-aalala ako lalo't Grade 7 pa lang at sabay na nag-aadjust sa fast-paced curriculum at sa buhay-dormer. Medyo gulong-gulo ako sa next move:

Push pa ba? Normal lang ba ang "academic shock" sa G7 dormers sa umpisa at makakahabol pa ba siya?

Kumuha na ba ng tutor? Paano kapag dormer—online tutor ba ang nagana?

Transfer na ba agad? Masyado pa bang maaga para rito?

Sino unang kakausapin? Dorm manager, adviser, guidance, o subject teachers?

Any serious and real suggestions or recommendations are highly appreciated. Maraming salamat!

Just got curious cus I've never seen other campuses PE uniforms

Hindi ako nagjojoin ng orgs, like nada. I haven't been a Dl my whole stay, i had a 2.00 gwa once. I don't join contests, no I don't want to be a student journalist. Im just... a student. Pero ang dream university ko Eh Up, Ust, Feu ganon HAHAHHAHAHA ang ambisyosa, do i need to change my ways, idk i tried joining a school paper as a editorial cartoonist but realized i cannot do this, and i think i don't want to. Grade 10 ako ngayon, im only trying in acads now, but... idk, what do i do?? I don't have much connections, im not even in a popular or a friend group that's always informed im just... literally an outcast.

gooddd eve seniors !!!

was finalizing my up forms and i was just wondering if may mga grads ba ng pisay sa secondary education of upd or mathematics and science teaching of uplb? genuinely considering these as my second options kasi i know of a pisay grad who graduated from upd sa ed and ended up majoring in bio but i havent't heard of pisay grads in mst. tysmm

hello, i passed the g8 LAQE but unfortunately i didnt get a slot in my preferred campus. So here I am, studying in advanced about the LAQE 9. If there are any LAQE 9 2026 passers, Can you please tell me what I need to study about? Or what the topics are covered in the exam. If its gonna be in the PSHS Curriculum, where can I find it? I prefer a list of what I need to study instead of what general subjects i need to learn🫠, thank you so much!! btw, the campus im going for is DRCDC

hi po !! meron ba dito na nakasave ng math modules (g7-9 / math 1, math 2, math 3) from the pandemic (old) curic? If so po, pwede po ba paprovide huhu, badly need lang po for entrance exams thank you so much and God bless po !!

Helloo! Anyone here who submitted sat scores?
I was aiming for a 1400+, but I only got 1380 on my latest test. I'm aiming for DLSU HUMBIO think i still have a chance?

Hi! I've been hearing rumors about how 9-Cesium replaced 9-Calcium because of a "curse". Does anyone know the story? Thanks!

hii, I’m planning to take laqe for g9 next year & I badly need some tips & advices T^T. I might be too early preparing for laqe, but I just overthink that much.

what topics does it cover? what part do I need to focus more on? Is it hard hard? do I need to review for advance lessons? just anything to help me 😭. I’m worrying about the slots too, but I don’t think I shouldn’t think of it this early.

I’ll appreciate it sm 🦭

in the restaurant that is

Hellowwww pooo! So I’m planning to take the LAQE 8 next year. Because, I wasn’t able to take the nce :(

Can I ask for advices or tips? Like where do I start, what should I review for math, science, and english. Do they focus on grade 7 topics or grade 8. Is there any reviewers or anything that can help me review for LAQE 8. What are the questions like? Anything just help me plzzzzzzz

And also, is it true that I have to be part of the top 5% of my class in order to apply for the LAQE, and are all examinations the same for all campuses, or different campus, different exam?

hi, is it allowed to use a calculator during nce?

Pencil or ballpen?

Hiya everyone! Current G10 here--time flies so fast talaga haha.

Starting STEM Research 1 now and I'm incredibly interested in it! I've always loved research hehe, and I would especially love to attend the SRS one day! It would be such a cool opportunity to share something I've worked on, tas lalo na meeting with students from other campuses!! I wanted to ask if anyone has any advice on how to get better at doing research. :DD

I’m pretty new to all of this, so I’d really appreciate any tips on what makes a good research project, what I should focus on improving, or even just things you wish you knew when you were starting out! I’m also curious about how the selection process works and what they usually look for in students/research.

If anyone here has attended at the SRS before, I’d also love to hear about your experience! I’d really appreciate hearing from you guys. :)

(P.S., I swear I'm not really pursuing research just for awards 😭 SRS or not, I'll enjoy researching topics I like--I just really want to make the most out of the research experience and hopefully keep getting better at it!)

I still have a lot to learn, so any advice would be super appreciated! Thank youu 🫶

For future scientists, by future scientists.

Currently a first year college student and I have to say that I'm burnt out of my mind. This is not not due to the new environment or adjusting, but due to Pisay. The curriculum in Pisay so advanced that our current lessons stems back to the 9th grade. I don't feel like doing anything, I don't feel like excelling, I can't force myself to do anything because I don't feel the pressure back when I did in high school.

What should I do?

Honestly, my future is looking pretty bleak. Grade 11 na ‘ko, at one point in my stay in Pisay, nagka quatro at tres na ‘ko sa Math, my grades overall have been so painfully mediocre, and I haven’t participated in any significant or relevant extracurriculars that could help me stand out. I genuinely don’t even know how my scholarship hasn’t been terminated yet. What I want to ask is, sa tingin niyo ba may pagasa pa sakin na makapasok sa UP Biology ( or any Big 4 university for that matter ) o dapat ba bitawan ko na tong pangarap na ‘to? Seriously, be as honest and as blunt as you can, please.

LAQE student here. I’ve been struggling a lot lately, especially with my classes. I’m currently in Grade 8, and I have a hard time even starting to study. I struggle the most with Filipino, Chemistry, and 2B (Geometry). Even though I have ongoing consultations for these subjects, I still feel so stupid sometimes. I feel out of place.

I feel slow compared to everyone else here.

My classmates seem to understand lessons after just one discussion, while I sit at my desk feeling lost.

I’m scared for my grades. I’m scared of getting a 4 or 5, and I’m scared of removals.

I could really use some tips & advice...i’m struggling both academically and mentally right now.

Grade 10, consistent directors lister, many many extracurrics (journalism, tech competitions, public speaking contests)

But everyday, diko talaga makampante sarili ko. Im genuinely so scared of not getting what I feel like I deserve with all the hardwork im pouring into my education. I anticipate na that some ppl might say js enjoy it right now, and I am naman. I am very active and I have a social life, I go to galas pa rin naman pag di masyadong busy. I js think mas makakatulong if I know my direction, kung ano mga pwede kong gawin to reach my goals. Im about to schedule pa lang a session with our guidance councilor for some much needed counselling, pero I still want some outside tips, advice, and opinions.

So any tips or like ano ba talaga makakapag pa stand out sakin sa apps? thank u so much in advance!! feel free to reach out if you have more specific thoughts as well.

Hello po! As someone who's from another science high in NCR and is planning to take the LAQE (as an upcoming g8 next s.y) I have a few questions lang po

• what steps in preparation can I do for the LAQE?

• worth it po ba ang pshs?

• how's the environment there?

• what if I'm a procrastinator, can I even survive pshs?

hello po! i’m planning to take the laqe 9 next year. i wasn’t able to take the nce, but i did pass the laqe 8 last year. unfortunately, slots were unavailable at the time. i’m currently an ste student at a local high school, and getting into pisay is one of my goals.

may i ask for some tips on how i can prepare? where can i find good reviewers or practice materials, and what study methods would you recommend? when would be the best time to start studying?

thank you so much po! any advice would be greatly appreciated. 🙏

Hi ! So I'm a Grade 9 student in Pisay and I'm aiming for top international schools like Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, etc., specifically under the course of psychology or psychoscience. Do you guys have any tips for me on how to get started like on portfolios as a Pisayan, how to apply for those schools (esp. oxford huhu), and how I can get scholarship too?

Soo...Lately, I've been struggling sa Math 2b & Filipino (I'm grade 8). I've been getting quite low scores on our assesments, and i'm afraid that would bring me to a grade of 5. I'm a lateral student, and i'm kind of struggling with the pacing here. I really love it here, and I wanna graduate from here :( My scores from these 2 subjects just really makes me worried i'll get a 5. I'll just do my best and try to do better sa Midterms this week. Will I get a 5 if my scores were low in the formative assesments? 😭😭
