    bwahaha good luck

    wala ka nang magagawa, really. it's too late to try to expand your vocabulary or cram trigonometry and algebra and geometry and stuff. just take a deep breath and have at it hehe.

    although when i took it in 2000, the upcat was quite easy compared to other entrance tests (no trig, generally hanggang 2nd-year HS level matter lang). although that probably made admission much more difficult kasi mas malalapit yung scores ng mga applicants hehe.

    don't know about now though, good luck! :D

    -review math/english/sci. (okay, di ko nasunod yun. sa review classes namin sa school every saturday before upcat, we just attended them para maka-SM kasi nasa labas lang SM north edsa).

    -don't eat a very heavy meal. aantukin ka.

    -don't linger too long on one question.

    pero ewan ko how i passed the upcat and acet. heheheheheh. nakatulog pa nga ako sa math exam ng acet eh.

    buti nga ngayon may mga review classes na. during our time, walang review classes. stock knowledge lang talaga from your 4 years in HS. only about 10 of us from our high school made it. ayoko ng sabihin kong kailan ako nag graduate sa UP Dil at baka mabuking pa ang edad natin, hehehehe

    from what i know, UP Dil is the hardest to get in, then UPLB, then UP Visayas. it also depends on your course if quota course or non quota course

    if you want to increase your chances of admission, then select the non quota course. you can always shift later pag nasa loob ka na

    i guess psychological lang lahat yan. get a good nights rest, eat properly and be mentally prepared

    good luck bro. kaya mo yan!

    Choose a non-quota course first if you feel you are not confident in getting a high score in the exam. (Try finding a course that is related to course you are vying for.) In this way, even if you have an average score, you may still make it inside UP. Once inside, focus on the GE (General Electives) subjects to get high grades and get the average you need to shift to the course you absulutely want. Believe me, 2 years of GE can be enlightening. You may realize that the course you really want prior to taking UPCAT is not really for you. Anyway, everyone, no matter what course you are in, will take 2 years worth of GE.

    As for the actual test, just relax and focus on the question not the answer. If you are uncertain of one questing, move on to the next. Answer the questions that you know first then skip the once you are unsure of. Once you reach the end of the section, start over and go back to the ones you skipped. Do not waste time pondering on a question if you don't know the answer.
