excited ka na yata mag graduate. thats good.

my suggestion is that you buy now as many reviewer books as you can on the 4 board subjects. start reading by now during your free time, treat these books like pocketbooks or a harry potter or tom clancy novel  ;D
Huwag na magbasa ng makakapal na textbooks.

if you finish doing that perhaps a month before you start review, oki ka na talaga. Lets say you have done 75% of the review effort. Though its true that many topics you have read you might forget, thats ok. The benefit is greatly-enhanced confidence.

suggestion:
start reviewing your foundation subjects. and dont rely on review centers. they will claim about the high passing percentage and the top notchers they produced. several months ka lang sa kanila at 5yrs (or more) ka sa university pero feeling nila lahat sa kanila nagdepend ung success mo.

taking a board exam will all depends on your foundation during your days in college (stock knowledge ika nga nila). there's no specific books or review center (im not against them) that will guarantee you 100% to pass. review centers will just aid or guide you to a "board exam" type na setup and ofcourse there are several tips also.

regarding sa mga topics or asignatura, dapat all aspect. expand your knowledge, keep on reading dun sa mga topics na alam mong week ka.

and remember that board exam is always been "by the book". read - read -read... as advice by sir paranz.

just my thoughts...

pag malapit na board exam, useless na yang study mo, pray pray pray and pray na lang as if no amount of study can help you.

meron ng EXCEL reviewers ang nakalabas n sa market ngayon yung tungkol sa apat n topics..


MAthematics, Electronics, Electronic systems and tecnology at GEAS...
around P200 + ata presyo ng bawat isa kaso di ko pa nakikita yung laman kasi alang sample .. :D

If you really want to top the board, try to enroll sa review school total summer naman ngaun. mahaba ang preparation mo bago ka mag exam. Yun eh kung may extra fund ka... either way magiinvest ka rin sa actual review mo kaya pwede u nang simulan ngaun, hehehe. kung limited naman talaga and resource eh marami naman sa national book store ng mga review books, bili la nalang. or better use ur contacts, hiram ka nalang sa mga higher yr na tapos na o nagrereview din... gudlak! ::)

regarding sa books,

eto kc yung magandang basahin.. sa COMM = Communication Electronics by Frenzel, Sa ELECTRONICS = Grob, yung GEAS and MATH = pwede na mga reviewer na books na lang.

Actually magstart na review namin sa May19 sa excel review center and hindi ko pa natatapos basahin yung sa comm and electronics hehehe....

Wish me luck guys!

i think you're referring to ECE. it's true, UP ECE grads dont usually top the board but UP always gets the highest percentage. they say that's because konti lang nagtetake ng boards na UP (20-40 heads per board) as compared to the hundreds of other big schools. but UP gets 100% passing rate if not the highest %. it's all about percentage anyway.

just to defend my course (grad nako), the EEE curriculum is not made for the grads to prepare them for the board. not at all. the EEE courses are design-based courses and that is precisely what the curriculum is all about. we are trained to be software developers, programmers, power engineers, communications engineers, controls engineers. these professions BUILD and make something out of the theories, processes and the formula we learn. in other words, it doesn't stop in books, we apply what we get from the books and make something tangible out of it: a novel program or device, an efficient antenna, a robot that may be used in remote places, a warning device for biomedical purposes, a miniature computer chip that does almost everything, an efficient power supply or a speech recognition system for deaf people. dont take my word for it and visit the numerous research labs in EEE.

we are trained to be designers. that's probably the reason why we hardly see UP grads topping the board. other schools even have board preparatory sbjects before they graduate. UP EEE doesn't offer that. actually, they don't want to (or have to) since that is not the goal of the department. go to other schools and see if they've labs in their ECE departments that are meant for pure research.

go to ECE companies. see who the good design people are.

the board doesn't make one a good designer. most of what you study/memorize for the ECE boards may be not at all important when you're actually working in the profession.



etong post n ito nabasa ko sa isang forum. Napag-isip ko tama nga nmn puro pang board exam ang dating ng almost karamihan ng Engineering curriculum ngayon. Imbes na iguide ang mga student sa pagdedesign na dapat tlaga ang trabaho at taglayin ng Engineering at hindi yung pagmememorize ng mga kung ano ano na lalabas lamang sa board, mas pokus pa sila sa pag aaral ng mga lalabas sa board exam na hindi naman dapat ituro sa isang engineering student gaya na ng pagmememorize for example: Minememorize ang mga word na FM,AM,PM, Modulation, etc  pero ang tanong pano ba nila ito maiaapply at magdesign ng mga circuit para maggenerate ng mga ito. Cguro sana gawin gaya ng sa BAR exam ang board exam ng engineering yung mas focus sa design at analytical thinking kaysa sa pagmememorize ng sandamakmak na terms na hindi nman alam kung paano at saan iaapply  ??? ???

that's one of the biggest problem in ECE education. Schools focus more on the board exam than preparing the students to work on high-end companies when they graduate  :(

dito sa abroad more on hands on po sir paranz
they dont focus talaga gaano s theories
they really rely on heavy on hands, actual applications
more laboratories.
actually yung isang friend ko na professor sa mit sa boston
he even told me na minsan pag nag bigay cla ng exam sa
students open books and notebooks ;)

yung prof ko dati sa chem, lagi kaming may index card.. kasi sabi nya sa amin, pag nagtrabaho na kami, di namin kelangan imemorize lahat...sabi pa sa amin:  2nd priority na lang yung mga nalalaman mo (theories)...  ang 1st priority mo is kung paano mo magagamit efficiently yung nalalaman mo (application of theories)

my personal learning principle is this, as long as i havent made anything that i can hold with my hands and see with my eyes, i havent learned anything  :D

yeah application is important indeed, which also means that theory is important. We can't separate theory from application or vice versa. They are two sides of the same coin  ::)

I understand po what your saying
magkasama yan talga dapat,
students should know their basics, pero
tulad dito sa abroad inaaply ang theories at the same time sa lab
iba jan sa pinas at iba d2.  :)
mas advanced ang turo d2
mas gusto nila na yung students ay mag graduate
ng magaling sa actual applications po
not on theories lang. Lalo na sa panahon ngaun, companies
here are always looking for experience people, more on actual applications
I can speak to this one kasi naging student ako diyaan at saka dito
I agree with sevenstring, exactly yan ang cnabi sa akin ng prof na kaibigan ko
2nd priority na lang yung mga nalalaman mo (theories).
ang mahalaga daw is ma apply mo yung theories na natutunan mo
kaya importante din ang theories ;D

yung porf ko sa microcontroller, si Engr. Lailan de padua, gantio style nya.. idol ko yun.. pag nagpa-exam sya, open everything.. sad to say, wala na sya sa school.. nagsawa na sya sa ipinaglalaban nyang more on applications.. ayaw ata kasi ng Admin at mas gusto nilang magfocus sa board exam..tsk tsk tsk...

kaya nga pangarap ko sa school namin, kung makakapagturo man ako, pag gumraduate ng ECE samin, malupet sa applications.. pag malupet ka sa applications, for sure.. nandun na din yung theories.. sana...
