Does school really matter?

[brushless]

Sa US... Ivy leaguers looking down on everyone else.

Same with the posh schools in Singapore. NUS, NTU, SMU. The rest are ho hum. That's assuming you can even scrape up the ridiculous grades needed to join.

People still discriminate by the color of their skin. Even moreso your school? haha

Singaporean companies prefer Filipinos though while Singaporeans (NUS, Poly) go b!tching about unfairness.

Top University have the highest tuition fee except for U.P. and these University can get very good teachers. Hence they can produce better graduates and companies knows these. Kaya nga ang Ateneo at DLSU palaki ng palaki ng campus dahil ang dami nila applicants every year. Kaya yung maliliit na schools ay unti-unting nawawala dahil pakonti ng pakonti ang applicants at pahirap ng pahirap kumuha ng magaling na guro.

Yung english teacher nga ng anak ko aalis na at pupunta ng japan, sayang at napakagaling pa naman yung mga iba teacher marunong nga pero wala naman amor sa mga bata

Sa Philippine settings it matters a lot. Few reasons are opportunities VS competitions at minsan ay “fraternity”. Pwede then, superior mentality ng mga policy maker ng gobyerno na produkto ng “top and reputable” university which tends to affect the eduction policy para sa karamihan kaya madami din “mediocre” na institusyon.

Case in point: AKO. passed my engineering board exam on 2002 but graduated in “not so reputable” university as alleged.
Not hired as an engineer but for reason of survival I accepted a job as material validator in a Semicon Company with minimum wage salary. Naalala ko sabi nila sa akin WTF at ano ang ginagawa ng isang licensed Eng-eng dito sa warehouse. Wapakels, focus lang.

Decided to apply outside PH dahil below poverty line na statistics ko being a minimum wage earner at swerte naman na hired ako as an Engineer and that was 2006 already.

Kahit outside PH na ako, one of the ultimate goal is to land a job with Pilipinas Shell in Madrigal, Alabang. No luck because the preference is “reputable university graduate”. ‘Yung HR nila naging friend ko at wala na sa shell ngayon pero nasa multinational company pa din, isa sa Company na madalas banggitin sa thread na ito… hello Ma’am.

I did not give up and come 2009 I was hired naman by Brunei Shell but I resigned in less than a year because another oil major based in Europe pirated me. Tama in demand na ako ng panahon na 'yun.

For 8 years ay going strong pa din ako sa kanila but lately I realized na time to move back na siguro sa Philippines. Kaya when I got an invitation to apply for work sa ADB as an expat eh some “misfortune” naman presented itself in the table ulet. Applicants from “top and reputable” university in PH are also part of the candidates applying on the same position. Not meant to be talaga yata but guess what? I’m not hoping anymore and probably will just continue here sa current work ko and retire.

PH form of recruitment is “unpleasant” but not “immoral” especially if the boss is a product of “top and reputable” university. Pero ganyan tayo eh but I don’t care baka pwede naman talagang ambisyoso lang ako sa pag-aim ng top tier Company sa PH at hindi ako ang preference nila.

Kaya sabi ko na lang pag-aaralin ko ang mga anak ko sa “top and reputable” university sa PH at 'yung bagong graduate nga ay humiling na gusto magtuloy mag-aral eh 'yun ipinadala ko na overseas para sa post grad studies n’ya.

So talagang ang name ng school really matter sa PH at 'yan ang ipinapamulat ko sa mga anak ko kaya I have responsibility to provide them 'yung "top and reputable" university. Magagaling naman mga anak ko at proud ako sa kanila. Mana kase sa Nanay nila.

Haba at ang dami kong sinabi

Marami na din Universities and colleges outside metro manila had higher passing percentage in the board exams. At least to reduce congestion of students in metro manila [emoji122]

Kung sa pataasan ng tuition lang pala ang basehan ng husay ng isang school, mapapahiya lang mga yan sa Enderun Colleges of Taguig.
