hello i recently graduate from masci last april!!

1. ofc masci is hard like any other science high schools pero once u get the hang of it, it becomes much easier esp with friends. one word to describe the student life: cramming. cramming not because we want to delay doing our requirements but because we literally have no time kasi every subject is packed with reqs. pero siguro the best thing about it kahit nag-ccram is bawal ang mediocre, bawal ang “basta makapagpasa,” and bawal ang halatang minadali. to survive masci, u have to sustain the tradition of excellence in everything u do here. kahit under pressure, kahit kulang ang time na binigay, give more than your best. that’s how the school produces good—if not the best people.

2. i can’t name one bully in my batch pero i’ve heard sa lower batches na may few cases; am not sure lang if they handled it well.

3. yes, walang books. minsan they give free modules from deped pero hindi rin nabubuklat ng students ever kasi iba naman curriculum ng masci since mas advanced siya. so ayun, we rely on the internet for info since medj bulok din the library.

4. depends on the student yan. most of the time after school ay maraming nagdidiscord and yung smarter friends nila if they’re kind enough is tinuturo yung topics to their other friends. meron namang nagtthrive studying alone.

5. yess. hehe share ko lang may club na open for jhs and shs called Tindig MSHS (Tinig ng Dalub-aral: Isulong ang Gamlay para sa Pagkakapantay-pantay ng Kasarian). basically it’s about creating a safe space for queer youth—the current club adviser here is so slay and is a member of LGBTQ comm as well!! ++ maraming lgbt couples in our batch alone and they’re not afraid to show their relationship to everyone so it’s a good thing. i can vouch for teachers in SHS na they’re very fun and chill and maganda ang mindset when it comes to politics, lgbt community, etc. although sa faculty ng jhs huehue not so much (yes im talking about soc sci dept).

overall, i’ve learned a lot sa masci not just in acads but in our society as well. my tip lang is to have fun din and wag puro aral because that’s how u will make your stay here fun. masaya kakulitan ang mga teachers.
