Does school really matter?

[Egan101]

I wanted my daughter to try to get into Pisay, just like any alumnus would like to. However, I could never push her to be like me. She likes it in OB and as long as she’s enjoying school, I am good with that.

When I entered my first job with a global consulting firm that had a preference for the big three (UP, ADMU, DLSU), I felt challenged. I found out that it’s not the school but the people with the right attitude. There are a few grads of these big three that boast so much of their schools but in fact, they are just as plain an any other folks from other less-popular schools.

Pisay though, I feel like we got a pool of really sharp people out there. I would say sharper than the pool of people met when I was studying in UP Diliman. Too bad the government still can’t provide great opportunities for such talent coming out of Pisay.

Thank you for this. Plan to transfer my bunso from smc to mapua na sana. Don't like pisay style of online classes now. Hindi busy yung bata, mantalang my private student son, ang aga pa gising na for online classes.

Lipat mo Main.

As much as I appreciate Pisay's efforts to set up a campus per region, right now there's still a gap between the quality of education between the main campus and the regional campuses.

I say this with hindsight because in college, there are far more achievers from Pisay Main (in terms of both count and %) than from regional campuses.

Hopefully in 10 years the gap closes, but the reality is that today - Main > regional.

That's next to impossible jut, number 1 bunso. 2 pandemic. 3 process to transfer and slot availability sa main. Talaga naman behind ang SMC sa main. Okay na lang din kami rito, sana improved pa nila. Proud parents lang ako sa sinabi ni Egan.

Pisay-SMC ba anak mo? It used to be just Pisay-MC. Pareho kami alumni ni JohnM dyan. We turned out fine and I don’t think we’re behind.

Not once but twice sir. Hehehe!
Yes, dalawa pisayers ko. SMC na ngayon, maybe because of other campuses dito. Baka dati isa pa lang.
SMC ata second to Main when it comes to achievements? Kaso ayaw mong pumayag e. [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

i had a chance to compare ma-sigh and pi-sigh.
"mas hasa sa dusa ang gradweyt ng ma-sigh."
nasa escuela na nang alas-siete nang umaga...
nasa-escuela pa nang alas-sais nang hapon.

but yes,
school is only part of it.
the more import part, is the student itself.

I was never the model student even though I was one of the student leaders during my time. I never aspired for honors but I think I did very well in the subjects I liked.

Doc is right to point out that it depends on the person. I have seen some people just wasted their talents and skills by being lazy or being associated with the wrong kind of people or just not being pushed enough.

I Can relate to this egan bai... my bruh is Pisay-yan... hahaha... he wanted me to be in Pisay... so he tutored me, baliwala ang tutor kasi gusto ko lang maglaro
Ng basketball at that time... so no focus and concetration... no psay...

Tama si doc depende sa student yan...

However, look where we are right now, same i.t industry but different MNC serving fortune 500 clients globally...
