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.

Nakakahiya mang sabihin pero wala kaming perang pang-tuition sa mga well-known schools na yan nung panahon ko, dun lang ako sa libre-Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila. Galing din naman ako sa libreng public high school which is Masci.

I think mataas din ang standards sa PLM. You have to maintain a specific GPA, tama ba?

I also know MaSci graduates and they seem to be smart. Same thing: may screening and maganda ang training esp. sa sciences. At least that's my impression.

Yup, dapat nga imaintain mo certain GPA kung hindi ay goodbye PLM
Sa Masci din pareho at pahirapan ding pumasok!

Less industry/research & development here in the Philippines,- less tie up with our local universities, less government support- the lower the ranking of our dearest institutions...

Yes, they go in circles,- still the sad state of affairs in our country.

We all know who's the culprit here.....

ako sa UP Diliman lang galing, Mahihirap daw kame sabi ng other 3 schools. LOL!!!

Dami pa rin Promdi sa UP Diliman (top 15th in SEA Universities)... i know kasi, lagi pa rin ako nandoon kahit di na ako nag-aaral. Kumakain sa Lutong bahay (minsan sa Beach house or Chateau Garden), naglalaro ng RC Helicopter sa Sunken, istambay sa Lagoon, Kumakain ng monay with cheese.

Haaayy... i miss studying so much!

Back then, mukha akong ewan, pumapasok sa school ang daming dala: 42" T-square, 30" x 20" plate case, bag full of drafting tools, some books, minsan may dala pang laptop, ang lalayo pa ng bldgs. Hinahatid ako ng papa ko pag medyo sobrang dami kong dala.
