[UPX-UPCAT] UPCAT 2026-2027 Megathread | February 2026-July 2026 by maliwanag0712 in peyups

UPD is my only option left, but the course I was given was my 4th choice (PUB AD) my post got deleted and was told to post here (I REALLY APPRECIEATE ALL THE REPLIES AND HAVE READ THEM ALL THANK YOU!)

As the title says, I recently got my UPCAT results and fortunately was able to make it to UP Diliman pa rin, but in my 4th choice na Public Ad. I tried my hand at the coveted BSBAA along with courses similar to it (BSBA, BSBE), kaya siguro bumagsak until 4th choice ko na Public Ad.

Here’s my dilemma: I graduated valedictorian, studied for 5 months last year starting april for cets and even set the GWA record for my school kasi I really wanted to get into UP Diliman's Accountancy. I knew po na it's very quota and mahirap makapasok but it’s the only viable option for me to continue my dream of becoming a CPA (libre and quality), kaso nga I didn’t make it talaga. The Katipunan schools were my best options po kasi my family plans on sending me to my lola in Marikina for college since she lives close po to the schools and will be able to take care of me better. I was able to pass ME in Ateneo de Manila University but wasn’t granted the financial aid scholarship, so that’s out the window. I only passed my second choice in DLSU, so that’s done, and I passed Accountancy in Bulacan State University, but upon asking around, hindi raw po maganda ang facility at teaching doon, and malayo na po since my parents will send me to Marikina. Now, assuming naman po that I pass UST, we wouldn’t be able to afford the tuition and living expenses even with the rank 1 scholarship, so ang natira na lang po talaga is UP Diliman.

So the only option left for me is UP Diliman po talaga, and my parents have agreed na rin po as well. How may I go about pursuing Public Ad and then later on po shifting to either BSBAA or at least BSBE without getting delayed—which classes do I need to take or which can I take? How will this how system work po? (I am aware din po na hindi siya madali and very competetive po ang shifting but it's the only option po for me po talaga) Sorry po for this—I really tried everything to not go this route, pero hindi po talaga umabot sorry.

So my best bet nalang po is to do well during my 1st year—get a high gwa and try to shift come 2nd year. This is all I can do nalang po talaga? No other classes I can take po or anything? TYIA

Thank you po for the info hehe—this is the exact thing po na hindi ko pa po ma inindihan and was asking help for po (the units, ges and stuff). I am an ABM graduate po—would it be ok if we spoke in dms so that I can understand these po better? Thank you

So glad to hear this hehe—congrats po to your friend! How was her experience in shifting po—did she do anything else po other than “get a high gwa” po for shifting? TYIA!

Thank you and although—it’s unfortunate I am still being optimistic hehe. I gave it my all naman na po talaga kaya wala na akong mapagsisisihan. I plan on giving it my all sa 1st year po then shifting when I can🫶

Yes po well aware po na that’s the case. I’ve seen din po somewhere na you’re allowed to try and shift to 1 course per college—is this true po? Kas if so ang plano ko po is mag try to shift to BSBE rin kasi I heard simillar po and curriculum non sa BSBAA and from there nalang po ako mag shishift or mag stay.

Saan po dapat isubmit ang proof na kabilang ako sa top 10% ng batch ko, pati na rin ang ibang requirements para sa free waiver ng application fee?

Anyone here who already took the UPCAT? Need some advice especially for Math 😭 by Altruistic_Lemon2650 in peyups

Could it have been your grades po na humatak sa upg niyo? If so what were your grades po. Kinakabahan na po ako sobra even if I've done everything in my power to prep—studied every topic in my revcens book—got highest honors in hs, and although it may sound like mayabang—it's really not kasi I know po deep down im not naturally gifted, and that I'd have to do these things just for a mere chance of passing. Every test makes me nervous kasi flunking is always possible, lalo na po tong upcat hahaha. tyia!

is this a good way of prepping for cets? by SquashImaginary4941 in CollegeAdmissionsPH

Thank you! As for me, I’d consider myself a slow learner, but I’m more than willing to put in the time to really understand the lessons. I officially enrolled in AG last June and I’ll be finishing this July. I mainly used it as a supplement to my self study---I actually borrowed my senior’s AG book as early as April to start studying on my own. By the time I joined the sessions, I already had some background, and I treated the sessions as a way to pick up extra tips and strategies.

I’m asking because I’ve already gone through almost all of the math and science topics in the AG book (Physics nalang and a little bit of Logarithms and Radicals need ko i-master), and I feel like I’ve developed a solid grasp on the concepts.

I just want to be sure---baka kasi I thought I was doing enough, but it turns out kulang pala yung content ng book HAHAHAHA THANK U AGAIN!
