The BIG 4 Universities here in the Philippines

[student_01]

share ko lang

according to the 2000 Asia week Rankings and Thes rankings

there are mainly 4 schools that got into the list


The top universities in the Philippines are really those recognized internationally. I know many would not agree, but that’s reality. International research firms like THES-QS conduct valid and reliable studies. They don’t spend millions of dollars for nothing. And really, the “top universities lists” are not only based on board exams or prestige. THES – QS and most international research firms based them on RESEARCH QUALITY , GRADUATE EMPLOYABILITY, INTERNATIONAL OUTLOOK, AND TEACHING QUALITY. THES – QS short listed 15,000 of the “best” universities in the world, and come out with the top 500. In the Philippines, ONLY FOUR made it to the list (as always): 299 UP 3 DLSU 484 ADMU 500 UST, which means these universities belongs to the top 3% of the 15000 schools included in the study (which were already considered the top 15,000). And probably, these Philippine Universities already belong to the top 1% of all the universities/colleges in the world.

But there are still others who would say insults to the BIG 4. Instead of downgrading these schools and their students, just be happy that there are 4 universities in the Philippines still recognized internationally. I hate it when people say nasty things about these schools, especially DLSU, ADMU, and UST. It’s not really their student’s fault if they’ve got brains and money.

Be happy. Be thankful.
