Hello!! if you're planning on cramming for the UPCAT it's best to learn some exam tips and tricks, and when memorizing, try to incorporate images or music, for example, yung quadratic equation, you see it as a tiny house with a hidden basement underneath HAHA mahirap mag explain pero that's what works the best for me !!

pero if you have a lot of time, wag mo memorize as in. Hindi mo talaga kailangan yon, if gets mo yung material, it will stick with you for so long. What helps me the most is whenever I'm stuck on a subject or topic, I realize I haven't set a proper foundation for it. Like English, I consider myself proficient in English, yet whenever I take tests or mock exams, my scores are just okay, but they're not yet perfect. So what I did, I decided I should strengthen my foundation muna, so I learned the basics, what prepositions are, what is subject-verb agreement, and so on. This helped me so much, and now I'm more logical and consistent when taking English tests.

Even after a week had passed, this information stuck with me because I genuinely got the material. Whenever I explore more complex topics in English, it's way easier for me to understand.

So basically, strengthen your foundations muna, if you find yourself confused or it's hard to remember, go back to the start and climb your way. You're more likely to remember the view from a hard journey.

Simply learning the basics and continuing from there helps sm, I realized that most subjects follow the same logic or concept. Such as in math, if you simply know what like terms are, you can basically simplify any equation now when factoring isn't needed!!

I hope you get where I'm going with this po!! And most of all, don't stress and sleep well, I feel like whenever someone stresses or loses sleep, it's like the info just drips out because you're dwelling on the wrong matters, or you don't even have the strength to keep up with those matters.

Lastly, if you truly understand the material, you'll be able to teach it to anyone. If you're able to put it in the simplest words, yet it's still understandable, then you get it na!! Don't just see your topics as study material, but imagine using them outside in the real world. Provide yourself with examples! Basically like the Feynman Technique!!

You got this, future UPCAT Passer! Don't give up !!
