not academics related pero i find it helpful somehow. nakakaoverwhelm minsan lalo na parang adjustment period ang gr11. romanticize niyo lahat, pag pila sa elev, pag kain ng kwekwek after school, vacant subs, atbp.

also wag kayo mag cram ng schoolworks pre seryoso sasakit ulo niyo

goodluck sa shs! dont forget to have fun. wag masyado mapressure sa academics, wag hahayaan mawala ang sarili, passion, at iba pang mga bagay na dahilan kung bakit kayo nagpapatuloy.

two years of senior high will pass by so fast you won't even notice it. but here are some tips for you to make the best out of it.

be wise with your circle of friends. you may encounter people that are fun to be with but aren't really helpful for your growth. make sure that you find the right circle of friends kasi they will be the one sticking with you all throughout you senior high school journey.

never finish a class having troubles with the discussion. if there are parts of your lecture that you don't quite understand, raise it. ask for help. i swear, having the mindset of "sa susunod ko nalang iintindihin" will only hinder you from knowing things well, and will not be helpful on your future assessments and learning. be courageous enough to clarify things, or ask your seatmate/s to ask for you.

be masipag in taking down notes. there are times when professors only dictate important parts of the lecture, and are not given in the course sites or ppts, so make sure that you are all eyes and ears during discussions. huwag din masyado umasa sa notes ng kaklase, kasi minsan they have a different way of taking down notes with is very far from your way of learning. learn to be independent.

scan through your previous assessments and learning packets when reviewing. especially for quarterly exams, most of the answers are indicated in the given learning packets, so make sure that you review it thoroughly. in addition, make sure that you understand the lecture instead of just knowing it shallowly.

stop cramming. this is a basic knowledge for learners knowing na cramming gives you pressure and limited creative juices. know your priorities. it's better to finish off tasks right away instead of letting it pile up and doing it all at once. accomplishing work tasks may also help you free up your mind from the workloads given by the yellow school.

engage in orgworks. this has been one of my mistakes in my freshie year, and when i say na it's better to engage in organizations, it is better. aside from the fact that it helps you nourish your skills, you may also meet people that can help with your growth. it is also a fun experience kasi you only have 2 years in SHS so better to take risks than regret, right? however, make sure you engage with orgs that are manageable, and make you sure that when you commit to it, you can divide your time accordingly.

last but not the least, get some sleep. i know yellow school will ruin your mental and physical health at some point. it's a canon event. but make sure to at least get 8 hours of sleep. this will help you be more productive. knowing your schedule, i know it'll be possible so make sure you spend your time wisely. try to set time for your recreations and academics. and also, set time for rest. don't ever feel guilty for sleeping, especially if you know that you deserve it. if hindi talaga kaya ng oras matulog sa bahay, take some quick breaks at least and lend it for resting kapag nasa school. the library and your classroom is a safe space so i hope you rest well.

there are more tips to share but that's it for now. i hope to get to know more of you, rookies! if there are any questions, advices, requests, and invitations you have, feel free to chat me or your other seniors! i'm more than willing to be of help. goodluck, freshies! enjoy your first year sa yellow school :) 🐯

time management is the 🔑 to survive ust-shs talaga. learn to prioritize what’s important and of course, make time for rest. in case kayo pipili ng groups, choose your groupmates wisely, lalo na sa research! i don’t recommend na by friends ang research groups dahil hindi siya magiging effective, tatamarin lang kayo gumawa dahil alam niyong kaibigan niyo ang mga kasama niyo. most importantly, choose your friends wisely!!! super laking influence ng friends sa highschool life so be with people who you feel like will be a big help sayo lalo na sa pag improve ng sarili mo at sa acads! magandang kasama mo mga kaibigan mo at sabay-sabay kayong maging academic achievers. don’t settle for less when it comes to acads, mahirap bawiin at masakit magsisi sa huli kaya always do your best. humanista tayo kaya never forget to be respectful and open-minded sa mga nangyayari sa paligid natin, always be cautious and  kind. good luck, freshies!

tip 1: studying ideas in different intervals, regardless of how short the duration may be for each study session, is better than studying them all in one long session kasi the more you practice, the more you'll remember it faster & easier during exams (you'll learn this soon sa perdev)

tip 2: don't be afraid of asking for help from your teachers by asking questions about the lesson, asking for deadline extensions, asking for peta consultations, etc. + based on my experience, they appreciate students who reach out to them and most are beyond glad naman to offer their services but be respectful pa rin when you do so (only ask for help during their working hours & be understanding pa rin if ever na they can't grant your request due to several restrictions)

tip 3: review the correct answers to previous assessments and recitations when preparing for summative exams so you'll have a better grasp of how the questions may be structured sa exam & what strategies you can use to find the correct answer more easily

tip 4: resting is just as productive as studying! Mas mahirap mag aral kapag burned-out kana bestie so it's more than okay to take a breather & prioritize your health first + our brains also need to process the information we learned from studying

tip 5: never underestimate the power of Performance Tasks besties (even if kaya mo shang icram in a day, it can make or break your grade kaya always give your best, especially if by group yung peta since hindi lang grade mo yung affected but grades of your group mates rin)

Good luck, freshies !!
