All I can say about PMA is that "FRAT" is legal there... PMA is the FRAT MAMA. ONE CLASS IS ONE BIG FRAT. No hazing... 'coz it's ok for upper-class-men to sucker punch under-class-men...

Some PMAers are a lot smarter than UPers considering the tremendous pressure that they're in. Sa UP raw... Kahit hindi ka na pumasok, basta pumasa ka. Saan ka naman makakatakas sa Fort del Pilar or sa Baguio even?

My cousin's the Baron right now.

He's the top cadet in every aspect, academics, training, you name it.

Of course I'm proud of him.

Just because he's the Baron it doesn't automatically follow that he's the best in all aspects of cadetship. For you, maybe, but for the record, I beg to disagree.

PMA Entrance Exams (PMAEE) are much like NSAT (or NCEE before). It's a whole day written examination session held only ONCE every year SIMULTANEOUSLY in all parts of the archipelago. Successful examinees are then sent a telegram to report to V. Luna or the AFP Medical Center in QC for a week of physical and neurological tests.

However, simply passing all these tests will not guarantee your admission as only the top 300-400 (depending on the annual quota) qualified applicants will be sent to train in Baguio.

How stringent is the selection process? In 1996, there were about 21,000 applicants nationwide who took up the PMAEE. Only a little over a thousand passed the exams. After V. Luna, the number was further cut down to about 700 of which, only 350 made it to PMA the following year.

If someone tells you that entering PMA is a lot harder than passing the Bar, you'd better believe him or her!

;) :) :cool:

[bjaybrus]

:Dadvice ko lang ay kukuha muna kayo ng 1 year sa college like engineering before proceeding to PMA if you like.Kasi sa PMA,more on math sila and don't think na ang PMA ay puro physical training kasi necessary rin ang academics mo.Outstanding ka nga sa pagkamacho mo at pagkawarfreak,eh bagsak ka naman sa mga subjects mo,kick-out ka sa school. The required age for aspirants to enter PMA is 18-24.Two-days ang exams,1 for written and the other is physical.Kung pasado ka sa exams,dadalhin ka sa Fort Bonifacio at dun ang tindi ng training.Huhubaran ka and you need to run around a certain distance bare-naked.hehe,wala pa yun-kung nasa academy ka na,it's like hell in there lalo na 1st year ka pa,lahat ng upperclassmen ay utus-utusan ka,pero *** ang rule-the OFFICERS ARE ALWAYS RIGHT.Frats are present kaya nga nadischarge ang pinsan ko dahil sa hazing,sayang pero tradition na yan,wala ng makakapigil pa dyan.Sa ROTC nalang ako babawi.:D

[bjaybrus]

By the way,I applied for PMA last year and they didn't give me a pass to take the exams kasi under-age ako.Gusto ko talaga mag PMA kasi mga uncle ko at ibang ka-pamilya ko ay mga sundalo at iba naman mga enlisted officers.Sayang,kung nag-aral pa ako sa PMA,my family would be proud of me except my mom-ayaw niyang mag PMA ako kasi ang tindi ng training doon,pero part naman yan sa routine ng PMA eh.SAYANG!!!HI sa mga tao ng gensan at south cotabato,mis ko na ang gulo dyan.hehe:mad:

I'll only believe him or her if he or she tried both entering PMA and passing the Bar :) otherwise, he or she doesn't have any solid basis ;)

[cndom_sa_wallet]

sino ang bugo-bugo dito:?:

[dRAg_rAcEr]

my mom wants me to go to PMA but my dad doesnt...my dad, all his brothers, his dad, and his dad's brothers all graduated from PMA. my dad doesnt want me to get kicked by combat boots on the knee like he was...he peed on his pants coz of too much pain. that waa when he was still a "plebo". :( wawa...

I beg to disagree...The reasons why there are a lot of people taking th PMA entrance test are pretty obvious: Full Scholarship, free board ang lodging, and monthly allowance.

Consequently, people from all walks of life and all levels of intellect take the test. Sad to say, only a handful of really smart students take the test. Besides, the test is so easy that even an average kid can ace it.

After passing the written exam, all that is left is the medical and physical exam. So, what's the point of comparing it with the Bar?

[mac_bolan00]

the sheer size of the competition, much like the UPCAT is what. tell me, are all BAR-takers certifiably smart?

[unashamedusher]

wow... two years after last posting in this thread, i'm finally in the crossroads of whether to apply or not.

i just dunno if my subordinate software technology (hanggang ngayon, wala pa akong alam sa database) education can deal with my aptitude. although my dad took BS-Math in UP for a while before he entered the plebehood. bjaybrus is right, math skills help a lot in the PMA. my dad was awarded the Aguinaldo Saber for being the most well-rounded cadet.

i'm still praying for God's will though. :angel:

From what you said, can I safely assume that you have already taken PMA's written and physical entrance exams?

For the "record", literally, the Baron or the Regimental Commander is the "best" Firstclass Cadet in terms of performance (aptitude/merits/etc).

i couldn't have said it better.

my dad is a PMAer. at first, there were two hundred of them in his batch, but not even close to 70% graduated. many got kicked out, were left behind, and even killed. oh, and yes, i remember my dad telling me about the death of one of his friends during their hazing.

PMA is only for the undaunted spirits. fiery. and tolerant.

hindi kaya mali yung sinabi mo? eh di mas-matalino yung hindi pumapasok pero pumapasa.

as for frats, you have a lot of those in UP. walang-wala yang PMA pagdating sa pahirapan.

:D:D:D


ahhh

teka lang ah

pano mo naman nasabi yna? meron ka bang mga close na tao na may first-hand experience ng pagiging isang PMAer.

pare, academics pa lang, wala na... mas mahirap ang PMA to think na may mga pressure pa and all. sabi ng tatay ko may test everyday. talagang strict at pressured sa studies.

academics pa lang yun ah.. eh what more kaya pag datig sa training ekek. malubha yun.

hindi mo lang alam kugn anong mga horror stories ang kwinento sakin ng tatay ko na siya ring sinasabi ng mga tito ko, mga kaibigan ng tatay ko. ng lahat ng PMAer.

tsong, IBA ANG PMA.

sana may mga tao kang kakilala that would give you a fristhand accountof their life as plebes. at oonga pala, ive read of their horror stories in my dad's yearbook.

[mac_bolan00]

and what if i told you i have friends and relatives (some are dead now) who went to PMA? another good measure of IQ: how much bandwidth a person uses to essay an idea with faulty premises.

D.A, tama ka, sorry!!! 17 to 21 ang requirement sa age and sa QC ka magtraining for about 1 week kung makapasa sa written exams.

[slickmugen_13]

GEE..I never thought PMA is as prestige as other topnotch schools in the Philippines. Well sorry, i wouldnt know that since there are alots of stories about those hazings and stuff like that. I guess to much TV about violence in boot camps hehe.

Well, anyway PMA looks interesting to know more about...anyone here knows a website regarding PMA?
