Ok ba pumasok sa FEU?

[lememoir]

ok lang ba pumasok sa FEU?...course is nUrsing,,,,, Ok ba Nursing dun?

sa tingin ko kasi parang ang gugulo ng mga students sa FEU...

[jheng22]

hindi naman magulo ang mga students dun. paano mo naman nasabi?

nursing kukunin mo? anu yan first yr, transferee or nagshift? di pwede ang transferee o nagshift *** ng course sa nursing ng FEU. back to first yr. at good luck sa battery exams kung sakali ;) balita ko ang quota ay 1000 ***.

[lememoir]

what do you mean battery exams? First year po.... actually this coming second sem...

ang gugulo kasi ng mga students when I went there lalo na sa may labas ng univ....halos lahat nagssmoke...

[jheng22]

ah, san ba school ang walang student na nagsmoke?

after ng first yr kelangan kumuha battery exams para makapasok ng second yr. sa pagkakaalam ko ang quota *** nila 1000, masyado mababa kung ikokompara sa dami ng 1st yr nursing students.

saka nasa student na rin naman kung gusto mo masali sa gulo di ba ;)

kung ako tatanungin mo, sa awa ng diyos nakagraduate naman ako na di nasasama sa mga gulo :)

[lememoir]

so FEU graduate po *** ***...anyways yun lang kasi yung nakita ko when I went there yesterday lol....mahirap b entrance exam ng FEU? I was about to take it this saturday po kasi eh...

[Zion_PT]

^ nope...entrance exam dun eh...madali......pero pag nakapasok na sa loob...mahirap na... kase meron nang mga battery exams....kunbaga sasalain kayo...nung time namin...1998, out of 600 PT students 120 lang kaming nagproper sa institute of medicine sa fairview..eto yung FEU-NRMF.

hindi lahat nang students dun eh magulo...lahat naman nang mga school may mga magugulong students eh....

* yung battery exams eh parang mini board exam.... may cut-off silang dapat ma-meet mong score or grade.

[lememoir]

ah..ok...thanks for the info....

about dun sa entrance exam...madali lang ba talaga? overconfident na tuloy ako na maipapasa ko yung exam...lol...may bumagbagsak ba or mereon bang hindi pumapasa? What do I need to prepare? What do I need to study...ano ba type ng exam?

[Zion_PT]

^ yung entrance exam nang incoming freshmen tinatanong mo? kung yun...eh...madali...ewan ko kase year 1998 pa ako nun.....pero general science, math, english parang pang-high school...alam ko walang bumabagsak sa entrance exam sa feu kase madali talaga...kaya nga Fast Earning University kame kase tanggap tanggap sila nang students pero once nakapasok ka na eh...sasalain na kayo isa-isa tinatanggal...hehehehe

[zacharaiolsen]

masyadong malaki ang population ng nursing students sa FEU. tapos pag nandun ka na, pahihirapan ka at unti-unting matatanggal yung mga mahihina. ok rin sila mag-business! sympre ayaw naman nila i-risk yung average ng board exam passers diba. ok naman ang nursing sa FEU pero marami pang mas ok na nursing schools kaysa dito..

"...listed the 20 best-performing nursing schools and the percent of their graduates passing the licensure tests as the following: the University of the Philippines-Manila, 99 percent; Saint Paul College-Iloilo and Silliman University, 98 percent; University of Santo Tomas, 97 percent;

West Visayas State University, 96 percent; Saint Louis University-Baguio and Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Manila, 95 percent; Southern Luzon Polytechnic College, 91 percent; Trinity College-Quezon City and Cebu Doctors’ College, 89 percent; Mountain View College, 88 percent;

Remedios Romualdez Memorial School-Manila and UE-Ramon Magsaysay Memorial Medical Center, 87 percent; St. Paul University-Tuguegarao, 84 percent; Velez College Cebu, San Pedro College-Davao and Cebu State College, 82 percent; De La Salle University-Dasmariñas and University of La Salette-Santiago, 81 percent; and Romualdez Medical Foundation, 80 percent.

--------------------------------------------

kung ako sayo, mag-trinity ka na lang. kase ka-alyado nila ang St Lukes, the most advanced and internationally reknowned hospital in the Country.

[tophe_17]

^^^ correct ka dyan... Trinity College offers a very good nursing program.

Kaya lang, if you're planning to take nursing don, make sure kakayanin mo...

Dyan umiyak ang best friend ko... Sobrang higpit ng nursing sa TriCol.

Good Luck!

[jheng22]

sabi nga nila matira matibay ;)

ok din naman ang quality ng graduates.

good luck sa pagpasok mo sa college. :D

[Zion_PT]

^ kung kukuha ka nang nursing sa feu....kahit san school ka pa basta ipasa mo lang NCLEX mo....dito nga sa states...yung mga nurse na kasama namin sa work eh graduate sa mga school na di kilala.......

[lememoir]

ok..thanks for the info guys...thanks talaga...btw what I'm looking for is yung school na "kilala" yung name sa ibang bansa para madaling makapagwork...

[trauma]

ok..thanks for the info guys...thanks talaga...btw what I'm looking for is yung school na "kilala" yung name sa ibang bansa para madaling makapagwork...
There's no such thing as "kilala" school especially overseas (US). As long as you can pass the NCLEX, they will accept you.

[lememoir]

what I mean is yung school na "kilala" kasi trusted and has a good reputation...

Hello lememoir! God bless on your exam tomorrow!
:)

thanks tophe_17 :D

[tophe_17]

thanks tophe_17 :D

You're welcome lememoir!
Review ka na... :)

[tophe_17]

Hey lememoir, aside sa FEU, saan mo pa balak kumuha ng entrance exam for Nursing?

[Zion_PT]

GOODLUCK dude.

[silent yet...]

well, if you are searching for a prestigious school, and are really determined to be challenged.. then try the University of Santo Tomas, a known top school and an expertise of your concerned matter.. only if you are willing to pay around 40k per sem.. otherwise, try the University of the Philippines Manila, a relatively cheaper one but also of high caliber..

In UST, a number of examinees can pass the entrance exam, many are admitted.. but the stay entails a different thing.. passing a particular subject is not of consideration, its passing the quota being imposed every sem.. (you need to maintain, i think, an average of 2.00 for you to have at least 70% assurance of staying).. unfortunate students usually try shifting to another course just to stay in the university.. but only few turns fortunate also due to grade requirements, the rest usually transfer to FEU, San Beda, CEU, UE and others..

In UP Manila, the entrance exam is difficult.. and they only accept a relatively few students.. and the stay is far more difficult.. but since students are strictly screened during the admission, they usually manage to stay in the university until they graduate..

Either school, you will enjoy the benefits of being a "priority" when you graduate..

Hope you will consider taking up the entrance exams.. hurry up! It's my prayer that you will pass.. God bless!

[lememoir]

Hey lememoir, aside sa FEU, saan mo pa balak kumuha ng entrance exam for Nursing?

d ko pa nga alam eh..any suggestion?

[lememoir]

Kakukuha ko lang ng exam...good luck sa akin...

[jheng22]

[lememoir]

actually po kse dapat freshie na ko this year eh kaya lang nahihirapan nga ko mamili ng school and course kaya nagintay muna ko ng 2nd sem so this sem ako papasok...

I also took the USt exam but unfornately I didn't pass...

okey lang..medyo nadalian ako...

btw..parang kilala kita...tophe_17 :confused2:

[jheng22]

parang mas ok pumasok ng first sem kasi regular ka. sinasabi ko *** mahirap maging irregular, lalo na kung balak mo sa FEU mag aral

[lememoir]

talaga po? gano kahirap?

[pluma04]

ok lang pumasok sa FEU basta mag-iiwan ka *** ng I.D. sa guard...:)

nakaka-aliw talaga ang mga taga-UST, feeling talaga sa lahat ng bagay, pwede, mag-kape ka muna.

ang Nursing, hindi ganon ka-competitive 'yan compared sa bar at CPA exams, d ka ba aware na ang taas ng passing rate ng nursing exams

kaya **** saan kang nursing school pumasok, ok lang basta pumasa ka sa board, maliwanag ba ?!

there's no such thing as 'Priority" when you graduate a as nurse, bottomline line, basta nagagawa mo ang duties ng isang nurse, ok na 'yon, hindi importante kung graduate ka sa UP, UST, FEU, St. Luke's, UERM at iba pang prestigious nursing schools

[tophe_17]

okey lang..medyo nadalian ako...

[stepehenyan@12]

what made you decide to be a nurse probably it's because of the money Oh well can't blame you it's your life! if only our goverment would give priorities to medical staff and health workers here in the Philippines this wouldn't happen in the first place. in years time there's gonna be shortages of nurses in Private as well in Goverment hospitals around the country there should be a provision that nurses who wish to go abroad must have at least 3 years of experience in a goverment/ Private hospital. so we wouldn't be looking for a replacement when the time comes that a nurse will go abroad.

[lememoir]

Do you really think that's my reason? I think you're all misjudging students who choose Nursing as their course. Why is it always people like you are all getting the wrong impression of students who wants to be Nurses someday? Most likely you assume that our main motive of choosing this course is all because of money. Well sorry for you and all the people who are underestimating us. Ok let’s face it…we need money, who doesn’t need one? We’re all in the state of calamity here...high prices for all our basic commodities, high taxes –in other words sky-scraping expenses. Be practical, yes we need money but it doesn’t mean that we’re so fond of it that it has to be our main reason on choosing our career. Hello?! Please think. Even though I haven’t took up Nursing yet, I know that this course is really hard, well it’s not easy to be a nurse. To make it short what I’m trying to say is that aspiring Nurses like me desires to be a Nurse not just because the earnings were good but because of many vital reasons. Like for me, I chose Nursing because I think that it’s very challenging because it’s an overrated course and I know that we’re experiencing here in the Philippines a shortage of Nurses. So if you’ll ask me…I’d rather work here in the Philippines and serve my country. But you can’t blame many graduates of Nursing if they want to work abroad than here. Do you think if the gap between the salaries they receive here and abroad is small, would they ever think of leaving this country? (And I hate to say this but as what I’m seeing to our government I think it happened to be true) and do you think they would love to stay here in our beloved country that is managed by a chaotic government and bounded by political wars and where everything you can read,watch and hear is not pleasant to your eyes and ears.

[trauma]

There is nothing wrong about taking up Nursing for the future income. With the economic situation in our country, it's very difficult to succeed, even if you are in the middle class.
As for the requirement of hospital experience prior to working abroad, this is redundant as most hospitals abroad will not hire you unless you have 2 years experience (some require 5 years).

[tophe_17]

Very well said! *okay*

Let us not generalize that students taking up nursing chose the said course primarily because of Money. This could be true to some nursing students. :|
However, some of them considered money to be the secondary reason - they took it out of interest and that they really wanted to be Nurses in the future.

Well, I still believe that if someone take something he/she doesn't like (and just consider money to be the main reason in taking it up), it would really be hard for him/her to succeed (even to accomplish the course itself).

Its good to take the course you really like and where you can develop more your talents even if that is not as "in-demand" as a Nursing course. What's the use of our talents if we won't use it for ourselves? for our future?

:sunnysmile:

[lememoir]

:rpflag: :cheerleader: Kudos to all Nurses and all aspiring FILIPINO nurses!!!

[gandalfthegray]

Do you really think that's my reason? I think you're all misjudging students who choose Nursing as their course....

Lememoir, as they say,
"When someone says "It's not about the money, you can bet your a** it is.' "

So maybe there are exceptions to the rule, and I hope you stay true to your word. Nursing is difficult. You've gotta have heart for it. Too much brain, and you'll likely fail. Ahh, but the heart must be there.

If you're saying you saw a lot of students in FEU (I presume in Nursing, huh?) smoking, then there you are. These people don't want to be nurses for the sake of nursing. Who wants a nurse who smokes? They don't have the vision of a true blue F. Nightingale.

For what it's worth, good luck.

[stepehenyan@12]

I wish People were like you lememoir you have a sense of Patriotism. but you can't eat it and you can't spend it. the next coming years there's going to be a lot of sick people and life isn't getting better. for those aspiring nurses I'am misjudging you and all those nurse wannabees! better work your @ss off whether it's a private and goverment hospitals do what your suppose to do. I may not be a nurse but I had some experience in a goverment hospital me and the nurse work together as a team. and sharing some of the responsibilities would be a big obstacle because nurses don't want to stay that long working in a hospital they rather work abroad so less staff, more responsibilities, less pay and more B.S. coming from the higher people. may i make a suggestion once you graduated and pass the board exams apply at Fabella or San Lazaro. you'll definitely feel the nurse in you I swear.

[lememoir]

the next coming years there's going to be a lot of sick people and life isn't getting better. for those aspiring nurses I'am misjudging you and all those nurse wannabees! better work your @ss off whether it's a private and goverment hospitals do what your suppose to do..

I agree w/ you...

anyway...where is Fabella? If I'm not mistaken is it the Dr. Jose Fabella M. Hospital you're referring to?

How come could I feel the Nurse in me with these Hospitals?

[tophe_17]

Hey leme! I sent a PM... :)

[SoliduS_AlphA]

what do you mean battery exams? First year po.... actually this coming second sem...

ang gugulo kasi ng mga students when I went there lalo na sa may labas ng univ....halos lahat nagssmoke...


What is wrong about smoking outside the FEU campus ? :rotflmao:
Most students in college smoke, why take it as a basis against FEU ?


Oh well , goodluck to you.

[SoliduS_AlphA]

^ nope...entrance exam dun eh...madali......pero pag nakapasok na sa loob...mahirap na... kase meron nang mga battery exams....kunbaga sasalain kayo...nung time namin...1998, out of 600 PT students 120 lang kaming nagproper sa institute of medicine sa fairview..eto yung FEU-NRMF.

* yung battery exams eh parang mini board exam.... may cut-off silang dapat ma-meet mong score or grade.

Madali exam sa FEU pero pag nasa loob ka na pahirapan na pumasa. Bakit ba ang ibang mga tao negative agad kahit hindi pa nila nakikita yung inner core?
Swerte mo nakapasa ka sa battery exam. :D Kami naman sa dept namin walang battery exam pero sa thesis at major subject sasakit ulo mo kasi hindi na kami gumagamit ng typical test questionaire.

Mga exam na nakakalito kapag first year ka sa psych :
Association*
Morse Type
Practical exam sa Zoo1 (minsan kasi nakakaduling yung pin sa sborang liit di mo makitsa kung san parte ng palaka nakatusok )

[lememoir]

Oh well , goodluck to you.

Yeah I know many of the students in their college years smoke kahit pa nga high school e, but what I'm pointing is it's not good to smoke "near" the campus, I mean they should consider that they are ruining the reputation of the campus like what happened to me, dahil sa dami ng nakita ko na nagssmoke outside feu,nagdoubt tuloy ako kung itetake ko pa yung adm. test,it's like they've given me a warning not to enter that school and spend my college years there...isa pa they smoke like chimneys and don't they know that they are setting an example especially for freshies...It's ok to smoke but maybe they should go in a close area where no immature people like me can see..isa pa pollution yun...masyado na ngang polluted ang maynila eh,dadagdag pa sila... *peace*

[simplewarrior]

whew...I am from FEU Institute of Nursing, currently at third year...

ilang beses na akong lumuha...ilang gabing hindi natulog...feeling ko give-up na ako pero go pa rin ako...hehe!

sa una masisilaw ka sa benefits na makukuha mo if nursing kukunin mo, pero sa kalaunan...it's history...matototonan mo kung pano mo mamahalin ang kurso mo...kahit minsan di ka seryoso nagiging seryoso ka...

masaya ang pagiging Nursing student...sobra...every end ng sem kabado ka kung "out or in" ka pa rin...sa dami ng kumukiha ng Nursing maraming uliranin ang nagsusulputan...

meron kulang sa class room, kulang sa instructor...hindi masyadong natututukan ng mga instructor ang mga estudyante, pero sabi nga nasa estudyante din yon...dapat isipin niya ang kinabukasan niya bilang isang future nurse...so grab all the opportunities na matoto...kumbaga punan ang pagkukulang ng mga guro...

actually isa rin ako sa mga natatakot sa kapalarang naghihintay sakin sa Nursing field...we are family of nurses and no one in the family failed in the board exam kaya takot na takot ako...kung ikukumpara sa mga kapatid ko, pinsan ko at mga kamag-anak ko, sobrang aral ang ginawa nila nong kapanahunan nila...ako naman di ko alam if worth ba ako kasi feeling ko lang kulang pa talaga ang alam ko...at dami dapat habulin...

anyway I think FEU Institute of Nursing is one of the best Nursing school in the country...pero naniniwala ako na nasa tao din kung ano ang gusto niyang tahakin sa buhay niya as a nurse...kahit saan ka grumaduate it doesn't matter as long na you are worth to bea nurse...in all settings, di ba?

My sister works and now stayed for good in UK at sabi niya hindi kinikilala sa labas ng bansa kung saan ka pa grumaduate as long na competitive at magaling ka, tatanggapin ka nila!

one more, about FEU....inaayos ang campus sa Morayta...there are a lot of improvements sa school facilities...sa mahal ba anman ng tuition fee lalo na sa Nursing...they have the new Technology Building na sobrang asteg! hehe!

goodluck sa mga mage-exam at papasok sa FEU!!!

[lememoir]

ok..thanks for the info and hope to see you there this sem :)

[stepehenyan@12]

I agree w/ you...

anyway...where is Fabella? If I'm not mistaken is it the Dr. Jose Fabella M. Hospital you're referring to?

How come could I feel the Nurse in me with these Hospitals?

it's a living hell for doctors & nurses you'll learn how to improvise lack of facilities just like San Lazaro! i dunno which one smells bad. :)

[stepehenyan@12]

as my friend who happens to be an alumni in FEU call his university For Ever Useless!

[lememoir]

as my friend who happens to be an alumni in FEU call his university For Ever Useless!

why is that?

[stepehenyan@12]

during his time FEU is useless that's why he gave FEU an acronym

F-or
E-ver
U-seless
but today i can see improvements I did pass by Morayta once. I heard classrooms have airconditioning. according to my friend.

[simplewarrior]

as my friend who happens to be an alumni in FEU call his university For Ever Useless!

whew...ur friend said this? an alumnu of FEU? hehe...well actually naririnig ko nga to...i am a student of FEU minsan nakaka-buwisit talaga sa school, lalo na pag enrolment...mahaba ang pila...sa gate...mahaba ang pila...bawat kapirasong papel...may bayad....hehe!!!

pero maraming improvements ang FEU ngayon...all classrooms are airconditioned, they are starting now to computerized everything, i mean pati sa enrolment...darating ang time online na rin(freshmen ang inuna)...ang pagkahaba habang pila sa cashier, now pede ka na magbayad sa BPI kahit saan sa Pinas, paid to FEU...tapos sa GATE eh electronic na rin ang ID at pede mo siya gamitin as credit card sa mga transactions sa school...

binago na rin ang website ng FEU (www.feu.edu.com.ph) unlike before, medyo okey ngayon at may forum na rin...ang Sports Program okey din...kita naman sa UAAP...swerte ko namamayagpag ang FEU sa sports sa kapanahunan ko ngayon...may bagong tayong Technology Building (syempre claim ng mga nursing students mostly raw sa tuition nila galing yon...hehe)...bago din ang gym sa R. Papa....

pati nilalakaran mo sa loob ng campus inaayos ngayon...sementadong may design na kakaiba....masarap sa campus kasi dami din puno...malinis naman...marami nga lang estudyante....

nalaman ko sa Humanities namin, mayaman sa kultura at sining ang FEU...may natanggap silang award from UNESCO Thailand lately...ito ata yong award dahil sa pag-preserve nila ng architectural design ng campus...kakaiba kasi mga building...hehe!!!

okey naman ang quality ng education...above average naman....

hehehe....basta ang daming pagbabago sa FEU simula noong pumasok ako...mga ilang taon mula ngayon gaganda pa at lalaki ang FEU...it is moving towards quality education and excellence. It may not be on top but it is one of the prestigious schools in the country...Godbless FEU...my beloved Alma Mater!!!

eto pa pala isang acronym ng FEU...Fast Earning University....hehe!!!

nagtataasan ang tuition fee lalo na ang Nursing!!!

[lememoir]

right guys, feu was improved and improving and I must say, high tech na...when I took the entrance exam it was through online and the buildings were good..yun nga lang ***** effect nung mga improvements na yun ay ang pagtaas ng tuition...

[Zion_PT]

^ yeah..... kaya nga Fast Earning University Kame.......hehehehe

[jheng22]

as my friend who happens to be an alumni in FEU call his university For Ever Useless!

kelan ka grad?

whehhehehe, pag nabubwist ang mga estudyante sa mga prof alam ko lumalabas yang mga ganyang pangalan ng schools. :rotflmao:

masasabi ko *** di sya totoo. *okay*

[jheng22]

yung FEU-NRMF naman, na nasa fairview ang tawag namin FEU- FAR VIEW. ang layo sa sibilisasyon eh :(

[VLB29]

We need to be realistic here, i think out of 15 nursing students, only 1 really aspires to be a nurse and the rest you know what, its all about the easy money. (easy meaning easy to get "that" high pay.. hindi yung madali yung trabaho na easy)

Don't get me wrong here, I got nothing against nurses. I respect nurses with the job they do. Nakikita ko yung hirap na ginagawa nila.

I'm here in Cali, and I knew a lot of CNAs and some LVNs (senior living) and all of them don't really aspire to be a CNA or a Nurse, its just because its easy to find a job and pay a good decent money. That's it. Wala pa akong nakikilala na merong puso sa trabaho sa pagiging nurse or CNA nila. Kaya when I visit my cuz who's an LVN, makikita ko mga kasamahan nya, parang wala lang yung pagalaga sa patient. dahil lang sa pera kaya andun.

Kaya nga if you'll see most nurses and cnas are filipinos (sa senior living mostly kasi). I think people who have the heart to be a RN are those who are working sa hospital. Dun kasi yung challenge, dun mo talaga mafefeel na nurse ka. Sa kanila ako may respeto sobra. Dun mo kasi makikita yung puso na gusto talaga nila tumulong sa kapwa. extra bonus na lang yung sweldo.

[stepehenyan@12]

as I have said before my friend is the one who graduated in FEU not me I also have a name for my University but I'd rather not mention the school coz they don't deserve it. they could go to hell for all I care.

[SoliduS_AlphA]

Hindi lang naman sa FEU maraming smokers. Sa neighboring schools in particular sa Espana, kitang kita mo sa harap ng gate yung nagtitinda ng yosi at yung mga naka uniporme na students kala mo fog dahil sa dami ng nagyoyosi , so please don't take the blame on FEU alone, sa TAFAT pagnakatambay ako dami rin nagyoyosi dun, sa Recto dami din lalo na yung may Gothic Church architecture wala naman school na hindi nagyoyosi ang ibang students. Kasi parang ang dating sa akin you're being judgmental against FEU students who smoke, bakit FEU students lang ba ang nagsisigarilyo ? Di hamak naman na malinis ang loob ng FEU campus.

Ang gawin mong basehan sa school ay ang academic performance hindi ang pagyoyosi ng mga estudyante kasi nasa labas sila ng campus, wala silang kinalaman sa academic standards ng mga schools.

[lememoir]

^well what I've said was based in my opinion only,I'm not taking that "smoking thing" as a basis against feu and you're right I think being a bit judgmental but I'm just trying to say what I think about students of feu kasi naman po the last time na nagpunta ko dun bukod sa madami na ngang nagssmoke eh ang gugulo pa ng "ibang" students(hindi ko po ginigeneralize)...what they do reflect their attitudes(pati na rin mind)----well that's for me...and I definitely have nothing against feu...dun ko nga balak pumasok no...

speaking of academic performance...could you tell me more about the academic performance of feu kasi parang wala naman ako masyado nababalitaan about dun, basta ang alam ko lang maganda daw Nursing dun kasi mahigpit at may sarili silang Hospital, not to mention mas mura ang tuition fee kung ikukumpara sa ibang university...at they produce quality Nurses din daw... :hmm:

[br0m0thymoLbLuE]

bakit ba pag naiipit na ang feu, naghahanap ng karamay? :glee:

anong magulo kung nagyoyosi ? :D
try this one :
http://www.feu.edu.ph/
kaso di pa sya masyadong updated. :D

bakit ba pag naiipit na ang feu, naghahanap ng karamay?

anong karamay ? pinapakita lang ang katotohanan :glee:

kaasar lang talaga nung time namin, parang apektado ng oil price hike ang FEU
every sem tumataas ang tuition.

[lememoir]

anong magulo kung nagyoyosi ? :D
try this one :
http://www.feu.edu.ph/
kaso di pa sya masyadong updated. :D.


d po yun ang ibig ko sabihin...

ibig ko sabihin yung ibang students nagyoyosi, tapos dun sa may parang study area ang gugulo ng ibang mga students kaya tuloy nung kinakausap ko yung registrar halos d kami magkaintindihan gawa ang ingay...

anyway madalas ako pumunta dun sa website for the results and nabasa ko na lahat ng nandun pati na rin yung forum pero I'm not satisfied...

[SoliduS_AlphA]

Normal naman siguro kung maingay sa loob ng campus, kahit sang school ako nagpupunta, di ko na lang pinapansin. I'm just reminding you not to be judgmental ,if you're not satisfied try asking FEU pexers who were currently enrolled in the previous sem, kasi ako matagal na akong wala sa FEU. So hindi ako updated sa mga current events at achievments ng school, so far ang pwede ko maishare sa yo na school achievment (academic related) ng FEU,
5 time TAGISAN ng TALINO Champion (psych dept)

[lememoir]

I've seen the results kanina sa website and.........

pasado ko and candidate for partial merit sholarship pero ewan ko lang kung magagamit ko yun kasi irregular ako....pede ba yun kahit irregular?

A scholarship whether it be partial or full will come in handy, lalo na ngayon na medyo mahirap ang buhay..and it will motivate you to study hard to maintain an outstanding grade. what do you mean by irregular?? you'll be studying and working at the same time or only taking a lesser load. The FEU trunk line is 7355621, have them connect you to the admissions office.

O nga pala, about the website...hayu nako!! gumanda na nga pero wala pa rin masyadong ayos. :(

[lememoir]

^irregular po as in freshman ako pero second sem papasok(this coming sem) dapat kasi nung june pa ko

[outsidelukinin]

ak ok...just call the admissions office, I think they can easily answer your questions. Better make it quick though as I believe enrollment time in FEU is right around the corner.

I've been to FEU in the past weeks and all I can say im marveled by the improvements particularly with the new buildings. Kaso you have to bear with the ongoing construction of the sidewalks. The new THB building will really be something when its finished.

[sue_mo!]

the general impression is feu is way better than ust.

i believe "a little better" is more apt.

[ach_soo]

I hear FEU is now rated higher than Ateneo. Is there truth to this?

[sue_mo!]

yep. very true.

[iceflavah]

the general impression is feu is way better than ust.

ui! consistent sha.. sige na nga. sabi mo e. :naughty:

[Zion_PT]

FEU student tops the october 2005 CPA board exam!

congrats!

[plum_sun20]

well, sigurado ka bang nursing kukunin mo? kung sa tingin mong mageenjoy ka, then ituloy mo lang pero kung unsure ka pagisipan mo muna mabuti. oh well pag sa FEU lahat ng first years eh wala pa talagang major pagdating mo na ng 2nd year kung desidido ka na then dun na k n mg iistart kung anong major course ang pinili mo.

mahirap din sa feu, suwerte mo pag mabait ang prof, buti na lang sinuwerte ako lol!

[lememoir]

on going na ba ang enrollment for second sem and applicable pa ba yung scholarship kahit second sem and pasok?

[miee_19]

hi!! about sa scholarship mo, na-gain mo yan through entrance exam tama ba? don't know kung applicable na yan this sem, one thing i know is good for only one sem yan. but not that sure. may ganyan din akong scholarship but di ko ginamit, ibang scholarship ang kinuha ko.. di ko lang ma-identify yung tawag..nalilito kasi ako.. freshman nga pala ko.. your story and the way you ask reminds me of myself bago ako mag-enrol jan. sinisisi ko pa dati feu dahil aga ng enrolment period kaya napressure ako mamili ng skul, baka kasi maubusan ng slot.hehehe kapag nga tinatanong ako why i entered the university i used to answer "di ko nga alam e".. but now, my profs, the uaap and some other circumstances made things clear for me. now i know my reason and my worth. about academically, maganda rin ang turo. may prof pa nga ako na galing sa admu. first year lang ako kaya la pa ko masabi 'bout nursing (in). ahse palang kase ako at sa pagkakaintindi ko under ogec pa yung curriculums ko. my prof sa lit showed me the life beyond my sight. yung sa pol.sci naman he really inspired me, minsan nga napapa-isip akong mag-pol.sci nalang..hehe yung sa nat.sci. she taught me how to be independent and what it's really like to be a college student. mababait sila. magaling pa. their worth is more than just of a professor.. ang alam kong achievement ng feu is sa IABF e..business po yan.. winner - battle of the business plans world championships in harvard university, usa sa nursing la pa ko masyado masabi..i haven't experienced it yet..i believe they're more on hands-on. sa skills. and that's what the aspiring nurse really needs, to be trained of. ang intelligence, madedevelop yan but the skills, they're God given gift although pwede mo rin talaga yun i-develop.. it's up to you kung may doubt ka sa feu. pero for me, feu is where i truly belong. and i'm very proud to be a part of it! kung ang hanap mo is yung "may pangalan", i must tell you this, my friend's tita is now a head nurse sa isang hospital abroad. yung tita niya is grad sa feu. my friend is now at feu taking up same course..
anyway, you can contact these numbers, 736-0036 735-5621 to 30 loc.251 sa admissions ata yan.. goodluck.. kung may questions ka pa, feel free to ask..sa scholarship visit po this site.. www.feu.edu.ph i think natignan mo na yan.. haba kasi nung nakasulat about sa scholarship.. but kung pupunta ka dun, punta ka sa (apo) admissions and placement office.. sa baba yun ng AB (arts bldg) hingi ka ng leaflet sabihin mo about sa scholarship.. :) may grade kasi na kailangan mo para ma-avail yun.. kung partial, dapat ang hs ave mo atleast 88%.. goodluck ulit! God bless..

+proud to be a tamaraw+

[lememoir]

Hi miee_19! thanks for all the infos. freshie ka rin ba? anyway, I went to feu kanina and I've got all the infos that I need, thanks to the dean of AHSE for enlighting me about the Nursing course.

I must say, my first impression about feu was so wrong....feu ain't really that bad. Most edifice inside this university were really fascinating though it's still under construction so it's kinda messy, the rooms were nice although some needs improvement, the students were also nice and of course the employees of this university---wow they're very accomodating (or is it dahil sa freshie ako?), they're kind and hindi sila mukhang pera like other universities.

btw, next school year na ko papasok kasi ayoko maging ireg...

miee, check your pm...

go tamaraws! *okay*

[tomassina]

i think feu is a good school too...

^ hi-tech na FEU hehehe...nung time namin pahabaan nang pila sa arts building....langya halos mahimatay gf ko dun naalala ko sobrang init.....

[lememoir]

off topic...totoo bang mas maganda "daw" ang CEU kung ikukumpara sa feu...yan kasi sabi ng karamihan sa mga relatives and friends ko eh...

Pag tinatanong kasi nila kung sang school daw ako papasok sinasagot ko feu tapos bigla nila tatanungin na "feu? bakit di ka sa CeU pumasok?" or yung iba naman "feu? mag ceu ka na lang..."

[nice_cha]

^-- im not sure.. hinde naman kasi ako tiga CEU e.. mahirap icompare..

[clawed_out]

so after 3 pages of experiences & speculations, have you guys decidided if its ok to enroll in FEU?

i say, whatever will make you sleep well tonight.

if you want a cheaper tuition., :)

[lememoir]

^so mas mura pala ang tuition sa CEU kesa sa FEU...

kung nabasa mo sana yung inquirer before.., heheh., :)

hard to compare..ask them if they've experienced studying on both schools. they might be biased.. kung mga ceu grads ***, they would really say that ceu is much better. pero kung na-experience nga nila studying at both schools, isipin mo lahat ng aspects. *** achievements, panahon nila coz habang nagbabago ang panahon, things either develop or decline.. maybe this still concerns your decision on what school you'll enter..alam mo, depende yan sayo kung san mo tingin mag-eexcel ka. kung ano mas gusto mo talaga. kasi kahit anong ganda ng skul mo, yet di mo talaga gusto, i don't think you'll succeed.. hay.. i really can see myself in you when i was about to enter college.. :) in my case kasi wala akong "dream school" and feeling ko la ako patutunguhan..hehe e eto naman kasing feu, ang aga ng enrollment nakaka-pressure tuloy.. :D
sometimes you just need to think what would satisfy you..yung tingin mong best choice mo..kung magkamali ka naman it doesn't matter eh..as long as nag-try ka and you'll never give-up.. maraming napaka-successful dyan na puro kapalpakan din ang pinagdaanan.. remember this..problems are solved by steps..it takes time to reach a goal.. :)
pero alam mo, enjoy sa feu.. :bashful:

+proud to be a tamaraw+

-hope to have lots of friends here sa pex- :)

[lememoir]

^actually para kasing ang baba ng tingin nila sa feu, wala pa daw kasi napprove tsaka wala daw field of expertise unlike other universities... problema kasi mga U.P grads sila kaya sobra ang bilib sa sarili na magagaling sila (althogh magagaling naman talaga) tsaka medyo nanghihinayang daw kasi sila sa kin kasi UPCAT passer din ako kaya lang pinagpalit ko ang UP sa FEU para lang magNUrsing... :bop: :lol:

[sue_mo!]

i can sense thomasian insecurity towards their neighbors.

Well, its your prerogative whether you're going to pursue your college in UP or not. If you feel happy studying nursing in FEU, then go! You should decide wisely so that in the coming years, you won't regret going to that school.

A friend of mine in High School, also experienced the same problem. She successfully passed UPCAT, one of the few people in our school who passed the exam. However she didn't pursue her college there. She, however, chose Mapua and after four years, she didn't regret taking up ECE in MIT.

If you think FEU would give you the best nursing education, go ahead.
After all, its not only the school that would bring you to a good employment in the future, but yourself too.

God bless you on your college, lememoir!

[Zion_PT]

^ very well said....

[lememoir]

I'll go for FEU naman talaga kaya lang nagiging skeptical lang talaga ko pagkinocompare sa iba ang feu...

:rotflmao:

[karen_0512]

^sa feu ka na lang...masarap magaral dun,simple lang ang mga tao!
ok pa yung mga facilities,di naman pahuhuli sa ibang schools.

[miee_19]

I'll go for FEU naman talaga kaya lang nagiging skeptical lang talaga ko pagkinocompare sa iba ang feu...

:rotflmao:


you should be certain. mahihirapan ka kung may doubts ka. like what i've said, ganyan din ako before.pero ikaw lang kasi ang makakatulong sa sarili mo.ano ba course mo sa up pati ano average mo?..sayang nga yun..
oo nga..parang ang mga tao dun masyadong confident na matatalino sila..minsan nakakaasar na.siguro may magsasabi na insecure kaya naaasar pero kasi minsan sobra e, yung tipong di naman yun *** point,,basta.. baka may umaway pa sakin dito pag nagsabi pa ko ng kung anu-ano.. *peace*
:rotflmao:
nakakaasar din pag minamaliit ang feu..although you can't avoid yung mga nang-mamaliit minsan kasi kakilala mo pa.nakakainis lang.. di naman nila naexperience to study at feu then they're making judgements which I believe is unfair to the feu community. why do they always degrade the university? and how come they came up with a conclusion that feu haven't proven that they provide quality education? is it because that they are from what they call and believe "BEST SCHOOL"?! ******* GOODLUCK nalang..

blessed be!!

[Hisbenz]

you can't avoid that...people are conceited about their schools..typical Filipino and its an endemic.kesyo they belong to UP,Ateneo, UST or DLSU, etc.

i believe in individual skills like any student from UP ateneo UST or DLSU,may mga patapon din. siguro school pride nalang yan.

FEU Students Win World Championship in Vienna
from FEU Website (posted 2005-11-03 10:43:46)

Xilworx, Philippine entry from Far Eastern University (FEU) represented by Ruth Michelle Ariem, was proclaimed world champion on October 28 in the 2005 Best Business Plans of the World Competition in Vienna, Austria. The announcement was made by Jaycees International (JCI) President Kevin Culinane during the Awards Ceremony of the 60th JCI World Congress. Over 5,000 delegates from all over the world converged in this beautiful city of culture.

Ms. Ariem, now a graduate of management of the Institute of Accounts, Business and Finance (IABF) of FEU, was assisted by teammates Alexis Lozano, Michael Estorninos and coach Ramon Peter Adviento. Their project on extracting silver from used x-ray solutions was favored by the international panel of judges because of its global impact, pro-environment theme, replicability and impressive presentation skills of Ms. Ariem.

Through recycling using their proprietary process, Xilworx can save three to four million lives who can possibly be contaminated by marine resources exposed to toxic wastes. Xilworx is more than just a pioneer legitimate material recovery facility specializing in silver. It provides a brighter future for young out-of-school youths who will be employed as the business expands.

Mitch, as Ms. Ariem is called, marveled at the beauty of Vienna. Her advice to young business students in college is simple. “Excel in everything that you do and you’ll never know where it will take you.” Alexis, on the other hand, felt comfortable because of the crowd they met in Vienna. “There were many Filipinos who were kind to us and cheered for us. The Austrian, Koreans, Brazilians and other races were very warm and friendly to us.” Michael, who stayed behind because of work, prayed diligently for Mitch who was delivering the 10-minute speech. “I know that Mitch will make it. She has the fighting spirit and positive outlook.” Prof. Adviento also coached another winning FEU team in the national finals of the Virtual Business League, with the international finals to be held overseas. “FEU has many brilliant students who can win in fair competitions.”

Also making it to the top four were finalists from Austria (Anagnostics – sepsis technology cutting down diagnostics from two days to two hours), Hong Kong (Nedmedia International – multimedia LCD display in transportation lines) and India (Classic Foreign Trade – use of deep-freeze technology prolonging the shelf life of food up to two years). Separate competitions were held between January and July 2005 in all the 120 member countries of JCI. In September an international panel of judges selected electronically the top four finalists, who were flown in to Vienna in October for the final round in a live presentation before the world congress delegates.

Prior to winning in Vienna, Xilworx won numerous awards in the Philippines, namely the 6th FEU Business Show, Angel C. Palanca Citation for Environment-Oriented Project, Most Evolving Project of the Ten Inspirational Entrepreneurial Students of the Philippines, and Most Innovative Project in the 2nd Manila Jaycees Best Business Plan Competition. Straight from college, Ruth Michelle and Alexis are working as real estate managers while Michael is a call center trainer.

The trip of the Philippine team was sponsored by JCI, Far Eastern University, Nicanor Reyes Memorial Foundation, and the FEU and IABF Alumni Foundations.

Upon learning of the victory, FEU Chair Lourdes Montinola expressed delight with the news, coming as it did on the heels of other FEU good news: the fresh UAAP basketball and volleyball championships and the CPA First Place of Emmanuel Guelas. The FEU community, led by President Lydia Echauz and VPAA Elizabeth Melchor, hopes to cap all these victories with Level III Accreditation as the University prepares for it in November. IABF Dean Danny Cabulay was extremely happy as this victory is the second international victory of the business school of FEU within the year. In March 2005 the FEU BoardTech team won in Harvard University besting the Ivy league schools. “The first victory at Harvard was dedicated to the founder and his ideals; this victory in Vienna is for the young Filipino entrepreneurs.”

di lang yan ang achievement ng FEU. madalas ding manalo ang mga fine arts student sa mga art contest like PLDT, Shell, etc.

[Zah_65]

kahit papano ok din naman sa feu. although, ni sa bangungot di ko naisip na mag-aral dito. pero ok lang. at least gusto ko naman yung course ko saka magagaling din *** mga prof.

school policy, gate2 is entrance only till 5 pm, then 5 pm onwards, its exit only. its quite a nuisance for those with night classes that usually enter gate 2, and to me too, since i usually enter gate2, and when i have to go home, ill have to go around the university. whatever the reason our school says, i dont like that policy. it also quite dangerous here in recto,manila(where our school is).our professors have told stories of finearts students who have died coz they refused to hand over their stuff to the robbers (who'd want to have their professional cameras and money for drawing materials stolen!?).and those usually happen just outside the school. anyway, if your a visitor, has no i.d.,no/incomplete uniform, you can only enter at gate4.

la lang...

[tophe_17]

hello lememoir! so how's FEU?

[tequilaboy]

hi sa mga iarfans jan! :)

[lememoir]

hello lememoir! so how's FEU?

Darn...How's FEU?! you know what it was really so annoying to answer that...

Behind the effort of making this thread, asking some questions, replying and posting stuffs, would you still believe me if i tell you that I enrolled on a different school? Yes you heard it right...I am now enrolled in a government-owned university here in our country, and with a little bias I really think that it's really such a pleasure to study there but nevertheless I still can't deny that FEU is such a good university too. Maybe I wasn't meant to study in FEU.

Di ko alam pero biglang nagbago isip ko, hindi sa dahil nagkaron ako ng negative thought about FEU kundi dahil bigla ko na lang naisip na ayoko ng magaral sa malayo...I recently knew that I was given the opportunity to study in a prestigious university which is near to the place where I reside, where my famly and friends are and it's located in my hometown so basically alam ko yung lugar...problem ko kasi sa FEU is I really don't know the place, the people and the environment as a whole so medyo mahihirapan ako.

But I have no regret that I've decided to take the ent. exam at FEU...it was such a wonderful experience...nalaman ko na hindi pala basta-basta ang FEU...hindi pala dapat sila minamaliit...Definitely FEU has a place on my list of the top three best university here in our country.

And for my final words,
It was really nice to chat with you guys na mga taga-FEU . I was really glad that you took the time and effort to answer my questions...you guys were really so accommodating...Salamat po...

Kudos TAMARAWS!!! :rpflag:

:dance:

[tophe_17]

lememoir: So sorry for the very late reply. Anyway, I'm glad that though you haven't pushed trhough with your nursing ed in FEU, you still manage to get a comfortable stay in your current school. Pagbutihin mo! :)

I suddenly remember this thread after reading another similar thread here in TheAcademe. This thread, I hope, would help answer some queries the other PEXer raised (about FEU).

[tophe_17]

staffer: try reading some of the posts here. :)

Congrats Tams for another victorious performance in the recently concluded 2006 HSBC Young Entrepreneur Awards. 9 out of 10 finalists are from FEU. FEU bagged the silver, bronze and runner-up awards.

Congrats!
