Questions Regarding Summer Classes..

[honeysenpai]

May mga gusto lang po ako malaman regarding Summer Classes. I hope that experts would be able to answer heheh !!

na-curious kasi bigla ako kaya parang gusto ko magtanong regarding this matter ^_^

1. What's the advantage/s of taking Summer Classes?

2. What subjects usually ang pwedeng i-take sa Summer?

3. Totoo bang you could finish or reach graduation much earlier kapag successful ka sa Summer Classes mo?

4. If ever mas mabilis ma-reach ang graduation, tentatively, ilang years po pwedeng matapos ang 4-year course when you would take summer classes in every year?

5. And Lastly, ilan po kung sakali ang maximum capacity or load kapag summer classes?

Pasensya na po ulet.. sana po ay masagot nyo, kasi napaisip bigla ako nung napag-uusapan nung mga friends ko yung "Summer" na yan hehehe.

Thanks in advance and good day guys !!

1) it has its advantages or disadvantages. some says na pig sinummer mo yung isang subject na mahirap, eh mas dumadali raw yun.

2) usually general courses (in UP)

3) logically yes, kasi you are taking advance units, or kung delayed ka mas nakakahabol ka.

4) 1 sem siguro yung mababawas.

5) in UP 6 to 8 units and max.

One advantage I can think of is that the campus is less crowded during summer classes. There are fewer students, so transportation is probably more available. There is less noise, and more room at the library. For many people, fewer distractions means a better learning environment.

1. Para hindi ka madelay. ( 3 weeks lang ang summer)

2. Major subjects na madalas i-retake ng students ng 2nd sem .

3. Bawal sa ust magadvanced subjects.

4. Refer to no. 3

5. Maximum load - 9 units

im planning kasi ng mag 2nd course after ECE in UST.. 2 and 1/2 years ko po kasi sya i-take without summer classes, pero gusto ko sana na mapabilis.. kaya po natanong ko rin yang regarding summer..

so technically, kung ibabase sa max academic load, half a sem po pala ang pwedeng mabawas in one summer session?

thanks po sa replies =)

those who wanna share, please reply rin keo hehe.

1. less number of units for future semesters. no bumming around in summer.

2. in UP, general education subjects. some departments offer petitioned major subjects.

3. given a department who offer their course in a seasonal manner (a major subject will only be offered in the first semester whether a petition is made or not), NO. if that is not the case, might be or could be.

4. given a 4-year course, 3 summers lang ang pwede kasi almost always, the summer before graduating year is for internships. pero, given those three summers with a maximum of 6 units each, you could finish a 4-year coures in 3 and a half years.

5. in UP, 6 units ang maximum for a summer class. special case na kung makaabot ka pa ng 9. :)

1. What's the advantage/s of taking Summer Classes?
advantage nya dahil mabilis di mo namalayan tapos na yung isang sem ng walang hirap. tapos fresh na fresh yung nalalaman mo kung nagaral ka talaga. ang disadvantage nya kung major subjects ang kinuha mo tapos mahirap pa, lalo kang mahihirapan kasi nga mga less than 2 months lang yun, kaya ang hirap pagaralan nung buong subject.unless magaling ka naman humabol, another disadvantage nakakatamad pag summer kasi mainit and nagkakatamaran din yung prof depende lang sa school of course. advantage din nya mabait ang prof pag summer puro consideration and less quizzes kasi nga gahol sa oras.

2. What subjects usually ang pwedeng i-take sa Summer?
depende sa school kung anong iniooffer eh pero usually hindi mo makukuha yung PE at NSTP.

3. Totoo bang you could finish or reach graduation much earlier kapag successful ka sa Summer Classes mo?
of course kung nauna mong kinuha yung subject and di less na yung time na dapat mo bunuin kaya mapapaaga yung paggraduate mo pero depende pa rin baka kasi mamaya nyang yung course mo may prerequisite na subject kaya dapat tamang diskarte sa pagpili ng subject di basta kuha ng kuha dapat magtanong ka muna bago mo ienrol. let say accounting 7,8,9. nagadvance ka ng acctg 7 pala next sem di pwedeng kunin yung 8,9,10 so useless dapat kunin mo yung subject yung walang pre req.

4. If ever mas mabilis ma-reach ang graduation, tentatively, ilang years po pwedeng matapos ang 4-year course when you would take summer classes in every year?
usually na naririnig ko mga 3 years nila natatapos pero depende pa rin sa course at depende sa diskarte mo ng pagpili ng subject. tsaka yun eh simula first year till the end nagsummer sya.

5. And Lastly, ilan po kung sakali ang maximum capacity or load kapag summer classes?
depende pa rin sa school tulad nung nagpost above na sa UP eh maximum of 9 units. samin kasi hanggang 12 units. pero super paliwanag ka muna para dun unlike kung 9 units sobrang pwede.

Kung lagi offered ang mga subjects sa summer, pwede mo siya mapabilis. May kakilala ako, nadelay siya, 2nd year, kinuha niya yung calculus, physics, computer combo, hindi siya pwedeng kumuha ng minor subjects ng 3rd year kahit hindi pre-requisite. Bawal magadvance subjects. Ask nalang department head ng ECE kung pumayag sila.

Kung magpetition ka naman, at dadalawa lang kayo, babayarin nyo ang tuition fee ng 10 students. Ang mahal nun hehe.

*Kumuha ka muna ng prospectus ng uste, sa office of engineering, then kausapin mo ang department head ng ece, kung pwede mo mapaiksi.
