Okay, since UPd people are posting "evaluations" for the classes they've taken, let me post mine as well.
1st Semester of my First Year
"Evaluation"
Subject: Math 17
Professor: Mr. Clarrisson Canlubo
Grade Basis: Five long exams, quizzes and assignments (during the early days), his never ending board works, and the Departmental Exams (Midterm and Final Exam).
Class Description: His teaching style, in my opinion, varies from the rest. He would dissect each concept first, explaining to us how it arrived to that concept. He'd say random jokes and tell stories whenever he feels to. Well, I can say that as a teacher, he IS fun but I don't really like his teaching strategy. His long exams may vary from VERY easy to VERY difficult. As he says, it depends on his mood. Oh, and by the way, he may give off plus points for tasks that you succeed to do (ANY task, I mean. E.g. wearing a skirt and a tube) and usually, if not always, gives off exemption problems.
Grade Expectation: Well, a Math genius would always be a Math genius so if you ARE one, despite his unique strategy, a glistening ONE is possible. Well, I'm not that's why I found the subject hard but nevertheless, passable. Remember, MATH is PRACTICE!
I RECOMMEND him. J
Subject: Biology 1
Professor: Mrs. Sonia Jacinto (1st half) / Mr. Perry Ong (2nd half)
Grade Basis: Well, expect a reaction paper at least, two long tests, a group presentation, latest biological breakthrough reports (although in our class, I don't think anyone even submitted) and the Final Exam (optional). ATTENDANCE IS A MUST! (get it?)
Class Description: I LOVED this class. You can do anything you like. I mean ANYTHING. This is a large class so you won't be noticed if you don't want to be noticed. The 1st half is a bit boring but still tolerable, you just have to jot a bit but if you're lazy to do so, worry not because Mrs. Jacinto provides a print out of her powerpoint presentations. The 2nd half is lively. I loved this professor. I've learned so much from him. Just LISTEN to his lectures and I'm sure you'll pass. If you happen to forget things, he provides copies of his powerpoint presentations in the site http://uvle.up.edu.ph .
Grade Expectation: Well, I got a 2.0 without even studying HARD like everyone else did so you may expect a grade between 1.0 to 1.75 if you're a hard worker. If you happen to get a PASS grade, don't attempt to take the FINAL exam if you're not a genius. Another piece of advice: just LISTEN, LISTEN, And LISTEN!
I RECOMMEND them. J
Subject: Kasaysayan 2
Professor: Mrs. Alma Bamero
Grade Basis: Two Long Exams.
Class Description: Her class is plain but nevertheless interesting. She's the only History professor who doesn't require her students to make term papers and report things. She'll do all the rest. All you have to do is JOT DOWN NOTES. Her history is pretty much UPDATED so most History textbooks don't have them. You may feel sleepy, but be warned not to. :p Also, she checks attendance so always be present and avoid being late as well. She counts them.
Grade Expectation: Her tests are objective type so it's pretty much like telling a DETAILED story. I failed the first long exam because I failed to tell all the details needed but I know that of all the Kasaysayan courses out there, hers is the easiest to pass.
I RECOMMEND her. J
Subject: English 1
Professor: Mr. Arnel Galang
Grade Basis: Short Essays, Recitation, Two Major Papers and Final Exam.
Class Description: I simply hate English 1 but let's me be fair. His class is a scary one. He's O.C! AVOID, as in capital A-V-O-I-D tardiness. I almost failed to take the Final Exam. I was late by about eight minutes. He assigns specimen texts and analytic texts. Every class time, you should prepare AT LEAST three CRITICAL questions about those. Fail to do so, and you'd be immediately sent out of the room. Also, always bring a dictionary. He randomly calls people for recitation and HAS HIGH GRADING SYSTEM.
Grade Expectation: If you're an English wiz, you could expect a 2.0 or even a flat 1. However, if not, you should expect a grade between 3.0 or 5.0. His grades are just too high. His flat 1 would require a rating of 97 or better. IMAGINE.
I WON'T RECOMMEND him unless you're good because if you are, I know he would be able to unleash the beast in you. :>
Subject: Philosophy 1
Professor: Mr. Jerwin Agpaoa
Grade Basis: Presence, Group works, random works, midterms.
Class Description: This IS my favorite class. I mean, you won't be stressed about whether you would pass or not. THIS SUBJECT IS a sure pass unless you do something that won't let you to do so. Additional to that, this subject is FUN. The greatest thing about the subject is... NO FINALS!
Grade Expectation: Well, expect a grade of 2.0 or higher. J
I ULTIMATELY RECOMMEND him. J
Subject: P.E. 2 (Basketball, Men)
Professor: Mr. Edwin Barber
Grade Basis: Tickets (UAAP games of UP, Cheerdance, etc.) and the interclass tournament
Class Description: I LOVE Basketball even though I'm not good at it. If you love it as well, then this class is a must. The prof. is kind enough to understand the weaklings (like me) in the said sport.
Grade Expectation: At least a 2.0 or higher. It's a sure pass. ^_^
I DO RECOMMEND this for those who like Basketball (whether you're good at it or not). J
Credits: Thank you, Mico Subosa for the style. I hope you don't mind.
