Hi! I did not include req details anymore since those are easily found in the website of schools you wanna apply in :) Hope you found my tips helpful :)
I’m an incoming 2nd yr pre-med student, thank you for these tips! I’m hoping i could get into either St Lukes or Ateneo 💙
You can do it for sure if you try hard enough!
Thank you for this, Leslie! I'll be applying to ASMPH.
Wow goodluck! ASMPH was one of the schools i considered! The campus is really nice and clean! HAHA. Make sure you can back up reasons why you want to get in ;) #whyateneo Please subscribe to see more of my med tips! :)
@@leslievlogs14 Hi Leslie! I had my interview this morning for ASMPH. This really helped me. Thank you so much! :)
@@jandelnico1310 wow thats so good to hear. I hope you did very well :)
@@leslievlogs14 Just a little update, multiple mini-interviews (multiple stations) na format for the interview and we had it via Zoom. It was fun!
hi! this is very helpful, thankyou so much! Can we request vid that is about your NMAT experience.
_shnstr we will see! Subscribe to stay tuned :)
Hello ate Leslie! So glad that I saw your channel 😍. I just wanted to ask if UPCM conducts an examination before you have an interview with them or it's just the interview itself that will determine your qualification? Thank you so much for this video ❤
Eychpi Suarez hi! No exam :) you just submit the requirements stated in their website. If you qualify, you will get an email for an interview :) goodluck!
Thank you po! Keep creating these contents Doc ❤😍. More power po 😊
What was your NMAT score?
hi! i am wondering how were you able to take the nmat on your third year while it states in the cem that you should be graduating or already have graduated in order to take it? i would also like to do the same :(( i'm incoming third year and would want to take it on my third yr, 2nd sem. btw, great vid!!
Charlika Somoza hi, i just applied and it worked hehe. But acc to my UP friends, UP required them to really take their nmat during fourth year. I was from UST kasi. I just applied bia the website and my application was processed naman :)
you look so lovely sissy.
Hi Doc, thanks for this really helpful!! Do you have engineering classmates in UPCM?
I think there are. I know ME from the upper batch :) We have a classmate who majored in music :)
😍😍😍
I was fine until she mentioned thesis lol. My thesis grade was fine but like she mentioned, it was one of those things where the adviser assigned to us was trying to finish her thesis and shoved it down our throats because we had no choice. Not precisely related to our major so I'm not too keen about discussing that. Plus I had a "pre-law" in undergrad so yeah I'm over here losing hope abt getting into UPCM lol
Hi! Interviewers are very nice doctors! Just say whats in your mind and be honest 😊
Thank you so much doc :)
Hello po Ate! Thank you po so much sa video niyo kasi you give us hope po sa mga NON-UP undergrads na gusto makapasok sa UPCM. Ang sobrang rare niyo po hahaha. Gusto ko lang po matanong kung laude standing po ba kayo sa BS Bio and 95+ po ba yung NMAT niyo? Same po tayong course pero sa PLM ako nag-aaral. Sana makapasok rin ako sa UPCM :)
I also wanted to know po kung bakit di po kayo nag-apply sa PLM?
Yun lang po and thank you :)
Hi :) Thanks and goodluck to you! Yes, I am laude standing. Yes, my NMAT is higher than 95, will vlog on that soon ;) i didnt apply to PLM haha cuz i’m not so familiar with the school and i heard the process was also tedious as well. It’s not part of my top 5 kasi, and i only applied to my top 5 chosen schools :)
@@leslievlogs14 Thank you po sa info 😄. Keep creating med vids po for aspiring doctors and med students like us. Kung pwede po gawa kayong Pre-med series ng blockmates niyo po hehe.
Hi! Thank you for this vlog! Is it okay to ask what's the probability of entering into upcm from a different university? Mayroon pa po ba kayong ibang classmates from different schools po na naging accepted po sa upcm? Thank you po and keep safe! 😊
Hi! Meron :) i have classmates from admu, ust, and other schools haha i dont memorize 🙈🙉 but, it’s competitive. Make sure you also have the grades :)
@@leslievlogs14 Thank you so much po! Your vlogs are really fun and informative to watch po. Hoping for more :))
Hi! i was just wondering which school did you go to before UPCM and also your High School?😊
Ronnie Lumpas Hi, i came from UST. My high school is a private school :)
Thanks for replying. I’m looking forward to watch more vlogs from you. 😊 stay safe and good luck to your med school life! 🤗
hi ate! when do you think is the best time to take the nmat? 3rd yr second sem or 4th year first sem ☺️ i’m currently taking a non-trad pre med so i would like to take the test as early as possible so i can retake if i am not satisfied with my score. thanks!!
I took mine 3rd yr second sem :)
Hi! Did you go to upcm the next academic year right after college? Does UP accept applicants that are not yet official grads? (Since your application period and interview for upcm were done on your 4th year college) hope you'll reply hehe. Thanks!
Yes i went to med right after i graduated from college. Nope, you have to be a graduate na, and you have ti be graduating when you submit your application. :)
@@leslievlogs14 ohhh oki po. Puwede naman po pala hahaha. Akala ko po kasi required na graduate na talaga pag nag apply po. Salamat po! God bless!
unic kim good luck!
Sana po magkita tayo.
Hi! May high chance parin po ba na makapasok sa UPCM kahit mababa grades mo nung pre-med pero let's say, naka 95%+ percentile score ka sa NMAT?
Hi! It depends! Pero almost all my classmates had high grades and latin when they graduated from premed. Factor din kasi yung grades. It’s very competitive. So if you want a higher chance, get a latin :)
Hello! New subscriber here. I just want to ask, does the interviewer asks for some supporting documents like "certificate of excellence/achievement/completion?" or does it vary per interviewer/medschool? Thank you
Philaw Sophyy Hi. The interviewers do not ask for those :) they just ask questions about you. Documents like those are only necessary if the school you are applying to requires you to submit those. When you are interviewed, the secretary of the med school hands your application form (with all the other requirements like transcript etc) to you interviewers. So your interviewers already have those things once they interview you :) they have a folder with them :)
Leslie Vlogs Thank you so much! ✨
Hi! If you fail the interview, is there a chance for you to be admitted in your other choices?
Hi, what do you mean? Each school has its own interview. If you dont get admitted in a school, you can try for others. You dont technically fail an interview…the competition to get in each school is just tough so you have to stand out in your interview :)
Hi, why not ust? Since it's your pre-med school already plus you have a high chance to get in.
I also applied there :) they didnt have interview lang. but even then, it was only a back up :) i’ve been in ust for 4 years, i wanted a change of scenery and school and a school with a less hassle parking scheme :)
Nice nice! You got me on parking lot! Hahaha why? Limited slot po ba sa ust? Or there's too much cars thats why?
Free parking in UST is hard. You have to be in school by 5:30am or else slots for students run out. The official parking lot which is also for those going to the hospital is costly. A whole day’s parking can cost more than 150 pesos. In st. Lukes, they have a valet. In admu, the parking is also first come first served. All in all, i just want a change as well. But it was my fourth choice :)
@@leslievlogs14 i love how we also consider the parking lot hahaha. Thank you so much for answering! And good luck po. Stay safe! Hope we can be colleague in the future 😊
Hello po, I just want to ask if there’s a chance for me to enter a medical school even though I didn’t go to a university during my pre-med? I am currently studying BS Psychology in Assumption Makati and I am really doubting myself and thinking no school would accept me because I didn’t come from big universities. Thank you po😔
Hi! Just as long as you take the prerequisite courses I think. You can also call the school you want to apply to and they really help :)
Try La Consolacion University College of Medicine Malolos, Bulacan puro madre pa rin parang Assumption na nakasanayan mo at mababa pa tuition.
What if di po nakapasa yung student sa UPCAT nung nag take po siya. May chance po ba siyang makapasol sa UPCM? Tinitignan din po ba nila yung info na yun?
Hi! YES you can still get in UPCM 😁 Nah, they don’t look na if you past upcat! Iba naman sa med! Requirement lang are your good grades, good nmat, and your interview :)
Hi Leslie may I know why you did not consider Ust as your med school
It was part of my choices! Which is why I applied there as well. But, I wanted a new scenery after 4 years of premed in UST. And I also factored in scholarships (getting a scholarship in UST is a hard and long process even if you have sparkling grades unlike in St. Lukes and UERM). And when I got in UPCM, I took the blessing as it is a great school and the tuition is a lot cheaper :)
Thank you so much!! Anw, I would like to ask. What language do you use during interview? Is it okay to speak Tagalog?
Poleen Pasion Hi, yes. Speak in a language that you are comfortable with. Or, if the prof asks you in English, answer in English. If he uses Tagalog, answer in Tagalog :)
so if I admit to cheating would that be it for me? how many get admitted among those who get interviewed?
I think if you decide to be honest regarding cheating, it would depend on how you explain that... and what you learned from that experience. I forgot how many qualified for an interview, but for my batch, we are around 180 students in total who got in after the interview. :)
ust tips po :(( surviving and acing bio po. 🥺
When does first day of first yr start? :)
Hello po ate! Ask ko lang po, may chance ka po ba na maka pasok sa UPCM if ever 90 lang yung NMAT and kelan po dapat mag submit ng application sa UPCM?
Sittie Mariam-Allyssa Sumaguina Hi, diba the requirement is “not lower than 90”. So you can qualify for application if you meet the requirements. But, just so you know, a lot of people applying have also very high NMAT scores, so aim to get as high as you can. It’s competitive kasi, right. But, there will be an interview naman, so just make sure that you do well on that one just in case your NMAT score is low. I submitted my application 4th year, second semester of college. January! They have late application dates kasi compared to other med schools. And their interview is also the last one to be conducted! At least in my time :)
@@leslievlogs14 omygeee, thankyou po for your reply. Can I ask po again kapag may questions po ako ulit? By the way, nursing student po ako and I really really want to enter UP med po. You really inspired me po, na baka may chance pa po ako. Thank you po for this video! 😊❤️
@@leslievlogs14 I can't stop saying thankyou❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Sittie Mariam-Allyssa Sumaguina Sure, just comment your question! And please subscribe to my channel so that you will get notified if i have a new video up :) glad i inspired you, goodluck! Do your best because it really is competitive :)
@@leslievlogs14 sure sure po❤️❤️❤️❤️
Is international students can apply to this universities
Yes!!
When the intake starts
Yes! But they are strict with 4 years premed as they are not flexible for MBBS curriculum. Try applying at Manila Central University( 3rd Medical school established in Ph) or Southwestern University ( 5th Medical school established in Ph )instead as they adjust their curriculum for MBBS.
