                I have made this article to give few insights to undergrads who are about take eye-popping and mind-blowing college tests. I haven't listed those tips that are really common like don't cram, leave difficult questions...blablabla. Tips that are listed here are the things THEY DON'T TELL YOU.

UNIBERSIDAD NG PILIPINAS

1.INDICATE THE COURSE OF YOUR "HEART'S CHOICE"
     - Your admission to the campus will not be based on your chosen course. It will be based on your UPG, 60% from your HS grades, and 40% from your UPCAT score. 
     
       -It's not true that you will have a better chance of entering the university if you have chosen a non-quota course. What really happens is that each campus has assigned a particular UPG cut-off. If you did not qualify in your chosen course, BUT your UPG is within their cut-off, they will indicate that you have "PASSED" and you will pick another course with available slots.
     
       - PRAY FIRST BEFORE YOU INDICATE YOUR CHOICE ;) 


2. Review on all subjects. 
     -The UPCAT offers a diversity of questions. It does NOT focus on one lesson. Math questions range from algebra to geometry; Science deals with gen. sci, chem, bio, and a lil bit of common sense physics. English and reading comprehension are to be used with your skills and is hard to learn shortly.


3. DON'T LEAVE ANY BLANKS
     - professionals or even review center teachers tell you to leave a question unanswered if you don't really know. BUT LISTEN TO ME, UPCAT is a "right - 1/4 WRONG" ONLY and not "right-wrong". I have an experiment to prove that you have an advantage if you don't leave anything unanswered.
