I wonder why FEU’s not on the list. With the efforts of the Institute of Nursing, I am sure we will be included in that list next time around.
?December 2nd, 2009 at 10:36 am

December 7th, 2009 at 11:30 pm
average po kasi ata ito for the past 5 years.. kaya wala ung FEU-IN..
tska nakalagay sa first list, Top 20 Nursing Schools with 1,000 and more takers, eh ang alam ko FEU at OLFU lang ang may ganun ka daming takers so that means total ito nung before pa na nagtatake and not necessary ung 2009 takers..
December 8th, 2009 at 5:43 pm
Minsan kasi bias ang syrvey na nilalabas ng CHED sa top 20 schools…gaya ng nangyari sa TOP 20 LAW SCHOOL…tama bang pagsamahin ang lahat ng LAW SCHOOL..halimabawa ang si LAW SCHOOL 1 ay may 10 takers lang at 5 ang pumasa,ibig sabihin nun 50% sila..si law school 2 naman ay more 50 takers at nasa 30% lang sila..kung percentage ang basehan eh di mas mataas si law school 1…ang gulo ng set nila sa top 20 schools..im from FEU,at yung jd-mba at TOP 4 law school..pero 1st time palang nag take ng jd-mba jointly offered by feu-dlsu..kaya nag reklamo ang UST kasi top 7 sila…unfair daw yung kasi mas marami ang takers nila kesa sa FEU-la salle…
Gaya ng latest na nilabas ng CHED sa top 20 NURSING school..bat hindi nila nilagay ang period covered ng survey para malaman..anu Dinoktor nila ang result?hahaha..kung 5 yrs ang covered ng SURVEY..di hamak na mas magaling ang FEU MANILA kesa ST. La salle sa nursing…mas marami ang FEU takers pero nahihigitan nila ang ST. La salle..tingnan nyo pa sa PRC..jijijij
December 12th, 2009 at 12:48 am
yup, totoong maraming takers ang pumasa from FEU nung mga nakaraang NLEs, pero, we have to take note na marami ding bumagsak..aun ang problema dito, kaya naman pala nating magproduce ng sandamakmak na boardpassers, 4 the record, surpassing all other universities, eh bakit hindi natin mas ayusin ung screening method..again, if we will look at boardexam passers, FEU ung may pinakamaraming naipasa, pero, tayo rin yung may pinakamaraming naibagsak..
imagine, nung previous NLE, 1200 yung takers from FEU, 800 yung nakapasa, 400 yung bumagsak…kung nascreen ng Institute of Nursing natin yung 400 na bumagsak, HAY NAKU!!!EH DI SANA TOP PERFORMING SCHOOL NA FEU!!!EVEN BETTER THAN UP, UST, AND OTHER SCHOOLS WHEN IT COMES TO NURSING!!
IN, WAKE UP!!
December 14th, 2009 at 10:41 am
@janel says…
i totally disagree with you..hindi FEU ang my pinakamaraming # na bumagsak sa NLE..tingnan mo ang ibang nursing school…sa 1000 or more examinees sa isang board exam lang..FEU lang ang kayang gumawa ng 50%+ na average…
try to look at this figure..
December 2004 72%
June 2005 88%
December 2005 82%
June 2006 66%
December 2006 75%
June 2007 68%
December 2007 62%
June 2008 72%
December 2008 61%
June 2009 79%
i got this figure at FEU-IN wikipedia…i do some research about the percentage from 2006-2009..im not sure if the percentage from 2004-2005 is correct…depende pa yan kung ilang ang kumuha ng mga season na yan..pero pag sinama mo lahat yan..that average is higher than top 17-20 school…
with regards to the survey ng CHED…my mga SCHOOLS dyan na nag pa take lang ng board exam in 2007…since the report of CHED is 5 yrs,meaning yung mga school na first time lang nag pa take ng board exam nung 2007,wala pa sila nung 2004-2006 pero sinama na sila ng CHED sa list ng top nursing school…kaya nga nasabi ko na bias ang report ng CHED…
dapat ISIPIN din ng IN/ADMIN na mag impose din sila ng mas strict na policy pa para masala nila ng husto ang mga graduates ng IN…wag sila ng tanggap ng tanggap ng mga estudyante..baket hindi sila gumawa ng CUT OFF para sa freshmen..sabihin naten mga 1000 lang ang dapat i admit nila at salain yun hanggang sa drumadweyt…eh di sana mas mataas ang percentage…
December 18th, 2009 at 11:29 am
hahaha feeling talaga mga taga feu kala mo kasi kung sino kayo umasta sa mga hospital affliations ninyo. wala naman pala kayo sa top 20 performing schools haha bitter much? go tamaraws na lang nga hahaha
December 22nd, 2009 at 3:58 pm
oh…come on guys…FEU will still be FEU regardless of this list…the FEU institute of nursing have proven itself through the years as one of the best in giving quality education and producing globally competitive nurses with the best qualities… compared to all other new schools…FEU-IN is an institution itself in NURSING EDUCATION… FEU-IN is FEU-IN!
December 24th, 2009 at 10:29 pm
@shaq200563:
for your information, no matter how you look at it, the ranking of the Top 20 Nursing Schools by CHED would always be by percentile or else there wouldn’t be a standard tool to measure the school’s performance and capability to produce qualified nurses. Maybe that is your problem because you are too narrow-minded. CHED is actually trying to eliminate that said discrepancy between those nursing schools with more students taking the board and those with less. That is why they have TWO sets of Top 20 Nursing Schools. (Duhh?)
FYI: Those top schools with 1,000 and more takers only have 1-10 failures a take. And FEU-IN has 400? Of course percentage-wise that would hurt your standing. That is why you’re NOT in the Top 20.
And I don’t believe “dinoktor” nila ang List. They’re not stupid to just put whatever school’s name on top of that. They are an accrediting body and a government one at that. Of course they have connections with the PRC and they know how many passed and FAILED for each school. So there.

whaaaat?…1-10 failures?…are you in drugs?..haha…you’re not from FEU right?..haha..
pwed ba mag isip ka..kung 10 below lang ang bagsak sa mga school na 1000 more examinees tingin mo makakakuha ang iba ng PAVERAGE NA 80% BELOW na pasok sa top 20?…NARROW MINDED?baka ikaw…
FYI:..the said survey is 5 yrs..Bakit hindi mo tingnan ang IBANG SCHOOL na pumasok sa TOP 20..hindi ba nag open lang sila nung 2005? ang iba naman 1ST time nagpa kuha ng BOARD EXAM NUNG 2007..MEANING 2 YRS PALANG SILA YET SINAMA NA NG CHED SA TOP 20…GET MO?..haha..
FEU will always FEU..kahit hindi man NAKA PASOK SA TOP 20 na MAINTAIN PA RIN ang HIGHER THAN 50% AVERAGE kahit LIBO ANG KUMUKUHA…
December 31st, 2009 at 2:16 am
kahit anong gawin ninyong pagtatalo diyan, CHED made the list which was based on board exam performances..PERIOD!!it’s hard to accept things sometimes, but WE MUST!!tanggapin dapat natin na nagkamali ang buong Institute of Nursing sa pagaccept ng students more than its limited, world-class though, resources..eh anu ngayon kung 5-years yung span na pinagbatayan ng CHED?actually, that doesnt make any relevance..kung magaling yung school, kahit bagong bukas pa lang nyan, o katatayo lang kahapon, so what?that is actually commendable..FEU-IN is for more than 50 years in a row, so how come these “babies” in the industry outstand such institution?this situation only proves that truly, David can beat Goliath..tamaraw din po ako, im just admitting all the downfalls of FEU because i believe that accepting one’s mistakes is the start of learning..

SHAQ
I’m sure every nursing school’s goal is to make sure that 100% of students would pass the nursing board exams. There is nothing to be proud of with maintaining a higher 50% because almost half of the body failed. The assessment: There is a flaw in the system.
In my school, we get a percentage of 99% in every board exams yet we mourn for that remaining 1% because we believe that we haven’t done enough. only with proper encourage and support, that retaker would pass the next exam.
Do not blame the CHED and PRC if your school didn’t make it to top 20. They are supposed to do their jobs and the nursing schools are expected to do theirs. These schools in the top 20 deserves their recognition for the job well done as they would not only produce nurses but they produce quality and competent nurses.

FEU Institue of Law is not that good also
FEU-IL holds rank 11
Akala natin magaling sila sa Law kasi nakalagay FEU-DLSU rank 4. Well with the help of DLSU that’s why they get rank #4 but FEU alone? gosh, not even in top 10.
January 28th, 2010 at 12:09 pm
@united says
are you from feu?./do you know the jd mba?..mas marami ang takers ng feu-il than feu-la lsalle…to think na pinagsama ng ched ang lahat ng law school maliit man o malaki ang population..kaya nga kinontra ng ust faculty of civil law ang ched sa result dahil top 7 sila at unfair daw…
fyi: lahat ng mga professor sa law sa feu-il ay nagtuturo din jd mba…
February 1st, 2010 at 11:54 pm
go CEU were on no. 12 just accept the statistics guys, still on denial? after this maybe you’ll feel anger but you’ll reach acceptance probably.. enjoy the green smock gown :]]
February 2nd, 2010 at 2:46 am
ang gagaling talaga ng mga prof ng CEU
February 2nd, 2010 at 8:54 pm
@united: FYI: FEU offers the Law Degree while DLSU offers the MBA…..mas strict lang tlga ang qualifications sa FEU-DLSU JD-MBA program, magaling parin FEU-IL
February 2nd, 2010 at 8:56 pm
FEU-IN the best!
February 6th, 2010 at 2:27 pm
i’m from one of the so called “pilot classes of IN”, the mere fact that FEU didn’t make it to the top 20 is because of the poor implementation of IN’s academic programs. approximately 40-50% of our batch is struggling with their academics. Sadly, the clinical instructors along with the other faculty members are doing nothing about this. Sobrang limited ‘yung interaction pagdating sa lecture and halos walang hands-on experience sa mga clinical exposure. Depande na lang siguro pag natapat ka sa magaling na ci. there was an instance that we had the same schedule with CEU. in the same area, i noticed how they focused on what they are doing, and they are at ease even if they’re ci is watching them perform the procedure. unlike FEU, they were shaking out of fear of getting humiliated and scolded by our ci. so, less yung nagagawa and poor yung performance. Masyado na kasi naging conceited ang IN.
February 9th, 2010 at 1:13 pm
.kawawa naman kaming hindi kilalang skul.
February 10th, 2010 at 7:39 pm
The best talaga ang Silliman University College of Nursing.
No. 1 in the Visayas and also in the nation.
February 12th, 2010 at 3:19 pm
hay naku whatever the statistics says you people cannot deny the fact that FEU GRADUATES nowadays are INVADING ALMOST all conceivable MEDICAL INSTITUTIONS in the country… and not only they have invaded, they have RISEN UP TO THE CHALLENGE… and kay feelingero so what kung wala sa top 20 ang FEU, kaw mismo malamang nakita mo HOW THE FEU STUDENTS LIVED UP TO THE EXPECTATIONS… they have been PERFORMING CONSISTENTLY WELL sa mga HOSPITAL AFFILIATIONS nila… malamang feelingero eh isa ka sa mga namangha how they perform sa mga clinical rotations nila… pity kasi many here are so narrow-minded na tinitignan lang nila eh numbers… kung performance ang pagbabasehan well sorry nalang ang iba…
?February 23rd, 2010 at 11:47 pm
sa mga taga-ceu jan na nag-ko-comment. ang yayabang nyo. eh ang dean nyo eh graduate namin. FEU grad si Dean Locquiao. karamihan pa sa faculty nyo graduate din namin.
February 23rd, 2010 at 11:58 pm
ang problema kung bakit hindi ma-implement ang selective retention policy ng IN kasi swapang at gahaman ang admin. pera at ang kikitain lang ang iniispi nila. walang respeto sa academic policy ng institute. kawawa ang IN. tuta pa nila ang dean. isipin mo nga naman kung magtatangal ka ng isang section… sa laki ng tuition ng isang estudyante, lang milyon na agad ang mawawala. talagang FEU…Fastest Earning University.
February 26th, 2010 at 6:20 pm
I think IN is now improving..considering the number of takers every board exam..still they manage the 50% above passing rate.
Kudos to the recent PHYSICIAN board exam..
FEU- Institute of Medicine Graduate ranked 1st…
February 28th, 2010 at 10:14 pm
dun sa tga ceu.. yah ggaling nga ng faculty nyu.. majority kc graduate ng FEU-IN, haha
?February 28th, 2010 at 11:43 pm
hey guys, just let it be, arguments shouldn’t be done here. let’s just be proud of our school, after all, it’s walk the walk and not talk the talk. show it to people not just tell them of your school. just saying. and besides, aren’t we civil enough to be criticized by others? :) Peace!
March 4th, 2010 at 12:39 am
Agree. We all know how great the Institute of Nursing is. But we also cannot deny the significance of statistics. The results there weren’t done in favor to any particular school but to serve as an objective gauge. And I agree with aproudtam, FEU-IN is bound to be there.
As for now, we should be happy that regardless of the numbers, it is undeniable that FEU-IN is still recognized by numerous medical institutions locally and internationally as a quality Nursing school.
Just a thought: Pa’no pa kaya ‘pag nasa listahan na tayo? ^^

you know one of our c.i. is from feu hindi talaga siya marunong magturo para siyang nag report lang, i believe kelangan niya mag aral ulit nakakahiya, sa 2004 hindi pa rin nakasama ang feu hangang ngayon paanu na yan strict ang school niyo pero sa exam poor performing kayo.
March 7th, 2010 at 9:58 am
in short, hindi maganda ang foundation niyo sa nursing school, as you had said my mga school bago lang nakapasok at hindi pa umabot ng 5 years anung school yun???????
March 7th, 2010 at 10:04 am
Guys hindi school niyo ang magsasabi lahat ng percentage, lahat ng school gusto number #1 ang school nila sa ched at prc mo tignan wag sa inyong school ok??admit it from 2004 at 2009 di pa rin kayo nakapasok sa top 20, tignan mo ang fatima top palagi hindi naman sila nakasama ngayon dahil marami ang bumagsak sa kanila at hindi nila naabot ang gusto ng ched at prc.
March 7th, 2010 at 5:37 pm
@ mike..
haha..walang kasalanan ang c.i nyo..kundi kayo…kayong nagaaral sa pamantasan nyo…the fact that na hired sya as C.I ng school nyo..kahit saan naman in demand ang FEU – IN graduates…we may not be in the top 20 but we deserve to be the best nusrsing school in the country..lol
yung sinasabi mong poor performing ang FEU sa boar exam..eto pakita ko lang sa yo..
June 2004 77%
December 2004 72%
June 2005 88%
December 2005 82%
June 2006 66%
December 2006 75%

December 2007 62%
June 2008 72%

March 11th, 2010 at 1:44 pm
Congrats again to FEU-NRMF School of Medical Technology for having TOP 4 & 6 at the recent MED TECH board exam..
Ranked 2nd performing school (97%)…
March 17th, 2010 at 1:47 am
Now I know why is that FEU can’t make it to the top 20. You guys should aim for higher percentage. If you think that above 50% and higher than Nat’l passing rate is enough well you are definitely wrong. Aim for higher percentage dude. Do the battery exams to downsize your students. Don’t accept 1000 students if you can’t make 90% on board exams. Don’t blame the CHED list, blame your school for accepting too many students.
March 21st, 2010 at 5:47 pm
University of the Philippines, University of Santo Tomas, and Trinity University of Asia are the top performing nursing schools in Metro Manila. Obviously UP will always be the best, since they’ve got consistent very high standards, although ang konti ng students nila. UST and TUA with 500 and 400 plus passers also remain consistent to be on top. UST and TUA battles for the best nursing schools in Manila with hundreds of passers.
Silliman, SLU, and Xavier are also considered to be one of the best. Silliman is very consistent at the top. This shows that the best nursing education is not only found in Metro Manila. Kudos!
To FEU-IN, you have been setting your standards but you badly need to have your cut-offs if you want to be on the top. For instance, without a doubt it really good that you maintain 50% and above passing, but you also produce a lot of failures. Nobody can’t blame CHED since those schools above really excels than FEU-IN. If FEU-IN wants to be one of the best nursing schools, they have to be more strict and assertive. The IN program can do it but the number of students pulls it away.
March 28th, 2010 at 4:42 pm
tama.. kahit ako.. pansin ko.. walng quota ang mga courses sa FEU.. basta may mag enroll .sige lng ..and YET .. magtataas p ng tuition.. s isang classroom.. ilan ang stupident?? di ba.. marami ngang FEU-IN ang nagshi2ft ng course ehh.. euan ko lng kung bkit?? pero tama nmn ung comment ng iba na..

tams ! .. top 20 skuls in the phil.. d rin kasama ang FEU . xD . khya
March 30th, 2010 at 8:10 pm
@ Pong
Basis ba yung may quota para mag 100% ang isang course na may board exam?..BAT HINDI ka tumungin sa PRC?..ang UP DILIMAN kahit sobrang higpit sa entrance exam at hirap pag nakapasok ka sa UP bakit meron parin bagsak?..ang ibang school dyan na may mga quota courses halos lahat ng program bakit hindi nakakaabot ng 90% above ang passing rate?..
ang FEU ay corporation..Kung walang estudyante walang FEU..get mo?..kung di ka tiga FEU wag kang bitter…haha..
baka ikaw ang stupident?haha..
Kung kumonti man ang population ng FEU ay dahil mataas na ang tuition…
Mas maganda na yung marami ang pumasa kesa MARAMING BUMAGSAK…
April 28th, 2010 at 1:13 pm
napapansin ko,andaming nalagas sa batch namin..
anhirap din kasi lalo na’t humigpit na ngayon,not to mention strict c.i.’s
hayyh,sa panahon ng titas ko,almost 100% ang feu and mismong ang hospital na pinagtatrabahuan nila ngayon,yun ang nag-hire sa kanila..

Dear Sir/Madam:
This refers to your news story regarding nursing schools last June 1, 2010. I found your title regarding your news story quite revolting. I think based on what I read in your story, I mean based on the content of your story, the title should not have been “FEU CEU top nursing schools”. The title does not fit the content. I find it very inappropriate. The title should have been “The Top Producing Nursing Schools”, because obviously in your story, your ranking of the nursing schools was mainly based on the number of exam takers. The number of passers was also taken into consideration. But again, it was I think just on the sideline.
In your report, the University of the Philippines Manila had 100% passing rate. Likewise, Negros Oriental State University-Dumaguete (Region 7), Bukidnon State College-Malaybalay (Region 10) and Saint Paul University-Iloilo (Region 6) got 100% passing rate. New Era University got 84.13% passing rate. FEU got only 74.62% passing rate. Reading very well your story, about 30 nursing schools got above 74.62% passing rate. So you see, performance wise in the nursing board exam, FEU and CEU cannot be classified as top nursing schools. So, the title of your story should have been “Top Producing Nursing Schools”.
I found this report in FEU’s website: http://www.tamarawbayan.com/ched-lists-top-20-philippine-nursing-schools-for-2009/
That report regarding CHED’s ranking is very clear, unlike your report in Manila Bulletin, which I found very misleading.
I wish that you could correct your title because, many have reacted to your title. Many were misled and those who were misled were those who did not read and did not understand the content of your story. I also have background in journalism and I was taught that the title should fit the story.

to all FEU nursing students:
the main headline of the manila bulletin is very misleading. Read the whole news story. I sent a letter to Manila Bulletin regarding the news. I am a staff writer in Scientia, the official student publication of the College of Science, University of the Philippines, Diliman, Quezon City.
The main headline should be corrected. It should state “Top producing nursing schools”rather than “top nursing schools”
http://www.mb.com.ph/articles/260130/feu-ceu-top-nursing-schools
Please check the whole story.
This headline would have an impact on the quality of nursing students our country will produce. Imagine, if would be nursing students just based their preference on which school to choose to, and if they based their preference only in the main headline of the manila bulletin without reading the whole story, many will be misled. Surely, the quality of nursing education will surely sacrifice.
Second, the logic, if for example, harvard med schools has a total of 50/50 passers, and a less known med school has a total of 120/150 passers, would you choose the less known med school over harvard? It was a blatant logic fail. this was said by our editor in chief in Scientia.
Thank you.

@Shaq
This country needed topnotchers for the country to produce top peforming nursing schools and obviously, UP Manila is the best.
It is not a matter of where school you came from. It is a matter of striving hard for a better future and aiming for a better life.
Let us stop glorifying our own schools. What matters most, is that this country can produce nursing graduates that will help in the improvement of our nation.

Good day Ms Nellie,
This is Ian Evasco, one of the founders of Tamaraw Bayan and I would just like to clarify that this site is an independent site and not any way funded by Far Eastern U. Therefore this is not the official website of FEU and if you want to visit the right one go to http://www.feu.edu.ph.

wag na kayong mag-away, UP Manila talaga ang magaling when it comes to health sciences, knowing that nursing has the highest quota of all the courses in the UP system (as in sa lahat ng course ng UP sa uong pilipinas), it will surely come up to a predictable result of 100% passing rate.
June 9th, 2010 at 9:35 pm
@ Nellie
Ms. Nellie..Di mo yata naintindihan ang mga nangyayari kung bakit ganyan ka mag react…kaya nga ginawan ng paraan ng CHED/PRC na ilagay sa ibat ibang categorya ang mga NURSING SCHOOL dahil ibaiba ang kapasidad ng bawat NURSING SCHOOL na magproduced ng NURSEs…
Ang nilathala sa MANILA BULLETIN ay para lamang sa taong 2009(june & nov)..
wala namang masama siguro sa sinabi ko na FEU ranked 1st in 1000 + category?..hindi ba?…
Kung mag pakuha ang U.P ng 2000+ sa isang board exam TINGIN mo 100% parin ang passing rate ng U.P?…magisip ka sana bago ka mag react..
FYI…In the late 90′s ang FEU ay sa 95-100% passing rate sa NURSING dahil below 300 ang examinees at hindi pa commercialize ang NURSING Profession noon…kung gusto mo sa CHED ka mag protesta hindi dito sa TAMBAYAN…
magpasalamat nalang kayo dahil FUNDED kayo ng government at ang FEU eh sa tuition ng ESTUDYANTE lang umaasa…pero ok pa rin naman ang performance sa HEALTH Science courses…

“FEU and CEU cannot be classified as top nursing schools. So, the title of your story should have been “Top Producing Nursing Schools”.
uulitin ko…kaya nga may ibat ibang CATEGORY ang CHED/PRC…matanong kita..KAYA BA NG U.P MANILA na mag PRODUCE ng almost 2000 NURSES sa isang BOARD EXAM LANG?…
Respeto lang sana..hindi sa lahat ng pagkakataon MAGALING ANG U.P
June 10th, 2010 at 12:34 pm
“Respeto lang sana..hindi sa lahat ng pagkakataon MAGALING ANG U.P”
I respect the main contents of the news story. What I do not respect is the title or the main headline of UP. I was addressing it to the manila bulletin, not to spite FEU students and for them to see my point.
I disagree. Sa lahat ng academic matters ay number one ang UP. Obvious naman eh. We do not have to prove over and over again that UP is the best. Because there is nothing to prove. UP is now considered as the national university and all of the students in UP are intelligent. I am not saying that there no intelligent people outside UP. What I am saying is all of us deserves to be in UP simply because we are the selected few who was able to surpass academic challenges and the UPCAT. It is an accepted fact. The one I am contesting against is the main headline of manila bulletin. Read the whole story and the main headline of manila buleltin is very misleading.
“KAYA BA NG U.P MANILA na mag PRODUCE ng almost 2000 NURSES sa isang BOARD EXAM LANG?…”
Top producing nursing schools kasi ang CEU at FEU ay sila ang nagkaroon ng most number of exam takers tapos yung sa inyo 74.62% passers. Kaya sa aking opinion, mas maigi yung headline na top producing nursing schools, hindi yung top nursing schools or top performing nursing schools. Misleading yan eh. Natural, ang UP manila o yung iba pang schools na nagkaroon ng 100% yield na pumasa sa kanilang exam takers, eh magrereklamo niyan. Makakatanggap ba ng 2000 students ang UP manila? Ang sagot diyan ay NO. Hindi tatanggap ang UP manila ng ganoon kadami. Una, limited lang ang slots. Alam mo iyon, di ba? Piling pili yung mga nakuha doon. At piling pili din ang mga nagtuturo at dahil konti ang number of students, sigurado na quality yung education at training na binigay sa kanila. I think yung mga nursing students sa UP manila ay more focused on hands on training. That’s the reason why mas tiwala ang mga employers or would be employers sa kanila. Aminin natin iyan. Hindi talaga nagfofocus ang mga students doon na makakasama sa mga top ten or top scorers sa board. Enough na sa kanila ang pumasa. You see? 100% Lahat sila papasa.
Alam mo kasi pag marami or big ang population ng nursing students, magsasacrifice ang quality ng education and training na matatanggap ng mga estudyante.
Kung sakali tatanggap ng state university say, 2000 nursing students na mapoproduce nila sa isang board exam, bago gagawin iyon, sinisigurado ng UP na may enough facilities for everyone. Enough trainors, teachers, clinical instructors to give quality education and training to every nursing student. Kaya, kapag tatanggap ang UP ng ganoong kalaking number of nursing students, sure 100% pa rin ang magiging yield sa passing. Ang mga problema kasi sa mga ibang eskwelahan, isa sa mga consideration sa kanila ay yung mga profit. Aminin natin yan kasi talagang kailangan ang profit para mamaintain ang eskwelahan. So isa sa steps kung paano gagawin iyon ay syempre tatanggap ng maraming estudyante na hindi nila sigurado na ma cacater ang needs ng bawat isang estudyante. Ganun lang iyon. Aminin natin iyan. Kaya nga, ang resulta, ay low performing. Tanggap lang ng tanggap na hindi naman ready na magbigay ng quality education. Palagay ko naman, lahat tayo ay mag aagree dito sa sinasabi ko. Maganda sana kung lahat ng eskwelahan kagaya ng state university na subsidized para mabigyan ng quality education ang mga nursing students at iba pang estudyante.
I already contacted the Manila Bulletin and the I spoke to the Editor in Chief already. He said he will discuss my letter with the other editors.

UP Manila has proven its worth:
http://officialweb.upm.edu.ph/overview.php
UP Manila is located in historic Ermita, Manila east of Manila Bay which was UP’s birthplace in 1908.
As the Philippines’ health science center, UP Manila fulfills its role of improving the health of Filipinos by constantly ensuring the relevance and excellence of its academic programs, generating significant knowledge and technologies through its researches, and rendering varied forms of health, training and extension services to Filipino communities. The programs and services address the priority health concerns of Filipinos and are being undertaken through close partnership and collaboration with the government, policy makers, other health institutions and professional health groups.
The health colleges, units, programs and facilities that comprise UP Manila include the nine degree granting units that offer a total of 25 undergraduate programs and 33 graduate courses; the Philippine General Hospital, the largest government hospital in the country which provides health care services to about half a million patients a year from all over the country and trains hundreds of medical interns, residents and fellows, and students of allied medical professions; the National Institutes of Health, which serves as the coordinating unit for health research programs, projects and activities; and several academic and administrative support offices.
UP Manila develops programs that serve as models and benchmarks of health education and health care in the Philippines. Many of the pioneering curricular programs are offered only in the University even until now, such as the Integrated Arts and Medicine Program (seven-year medical program); Master of Rehabilitation Science; MS in Clinical Audiology; MA in Health Policy Studies; the step-ladder curriculum of the School of Health Sciences, its unit based in Leyte south of Manila, which consists of integrated courses on barangay health work, community health work, midwifery, nursing, and community medicine; and recent offerings that include the MS in Medical Informatics and the Diploma in Bioethics, a joint program with UP Diliman’s College of Social Science and Philosophy.
For years now, the university’s graduates have been occupying positions of leadership in government, private, and nongovernmental institutions and professional organizations where they exercise a great deal of influence and advocacy in determining directions and policies on national health care program planning and implementation.
In research, UP Manila has been pursuing its mandate by generating and disseminating knowledge and technologies that can effectively contribute to the improvement of the quality of life of Filipinos. Its research outputs have greatly influenced the thrusts and directions of national health care programs and have been used as basis for policy formulation and implementation.
Researches which exerted the biggest national impact on Philippine health care include several research-based program recommendations generated through the national surveys on blindness and the studies on Hepatitis B, diarrhea, and common parasitic infections, which were adopted by the Department of Health; commercialization of five herbal medicinal formulations (lagundi, yerba buena, tsaang gubat, sambong and akapulko); textbooks and instructional manuals which are also used by other academic institutions; and very recently, the evaluation by NIH of the performance of PhilHealth, the country’s national health insurance program .
The excellence of UP Manila’s health courses is proven by the consistent 100% passing of its graduates in nearly all health licensure examinations every year, their placement in the top 10/20 posts of each exam, and consistently garnering the highest national passing rate among all health universities and colleges in the country, a feat which has been recognized many times by the Professional Regulation Commission.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/University_of_the_Philippines_Manila
The University of the Philippines Manila (U.P. Manila), founded in 1908, is the birthplace of UP. It is the oldest of the seven constituent universities of the University of the Philippines (UP). It is located in Manila, the capital of the Philippines. Its oldest degree-granting unit is the College of Medicine, which was founded in 1905 as the Philippine Medical School, predating the founding of UP by three years.
ITIS THE CENTER OF HEALTH SCIENCES EDUCATION IN THE COUNTRY, with the establishment of the National Health Sciences Center. It is also a reputable research center in the health sciences in the Asia-Pacific rim. It exercises administrative supervision over the Philippine General Hospital, the largest medical center and the national referral center for health in the Philippines, National Institutes of Health, Ugnayan ng Pahinungod, and Continuing Education. UP Manila is a reputable school of tertiary learning in the health sciences, and more high school students interested in this field apply to it than any other college or university in the country.
As of 2001, the Commission on Higher Education of the Philippines has identified 3 centers of excellence/development (COEs/CODs) in UP Manila. The COEs/CODs in the University are Biology, Medicine, and Nursing.
UP Manila is also noted for its highly political and activist student body promoting stands on national issues, as well as adopting a stance of academic freedom and excellence.

eh di sana yung concern mo eh hindi mo dito pinost sa tambayan..sa manila bulletin mo diniretso….TAMA ang nakalagay sa manila bulletin na TOP NURSING ang FEU..ang MALI eh hindi nilagay yung category…naiintidihan kita..kung bakit ganyan na lamang ang reaction mo..hahaha…OBVIOUS NAMAN eh..
So ano pala ang reaction mo sa latest issue ng QS 2010 result ng top 200 University in asia where ATENEO outranked U.P…?…
June 14th, 2010 at 8:17 pm
Elow tambayan readers,
Hahaha! Natatawa talaga ako sa inyong lahat. May magandang sinasabi ang isa, sasagutin naman ng walang sense ng isa, maiinis naman yung isa, at lalo pang sasagutin ng walang sense yung isa. Ahahahahaha!!!
Ganito yun, ang advice ko sa inyo. Pero bago ang lahat, pakilala muna ako sa inyo. Una, wala akong pakialam sa pinag-aawayan ninyo at wala na rin kayong pakialam kung saang eskwelahan ako galing. Pero sa lahat ng pagkakataon, dapat ay matalino kayong magbabasa at sinusuri ninyo maigi ang inyong binabasa. Sa madaling sabi, intindihin ninyo ang inyong binabasa. Huwag padalus-dalos sa pag-iisip ng kung anong konklusyon. Huwag magpadala sa inyong mga damdamin at emosyon, pwede ba? Meron akong nabasang sulat. Addressed sa bulletin. At palagay ko ito yung pinag-aawayan ninyo. Ahahahaha!!! Ang simple-simple noon. Kung sino ka mang isa na sumasagot ng walang sense, pwede ba, gamitin mo naman ang kaisa-isang utak na ibinigay sa iyo? Isang utak na nga lang, hindi mo pa pwedeng gamitin. Gamitin mo nga yan nang maigi. Kainis ka talaga…
At ikaw naman, na sumulat sa bulletin, maganda yung sulat mo ah. Sa totoo lang. Pero huwag ka nang sumagot sagot sa mga walang sense na sumasagot sa iyo. Kainis ka rin. Sinisira ninyo ang araw ko…
Pero sa totoo lang ah, luvs ko kayong dalawa. At least, sumasaya ang araw ko kapag nababasa ko ang mga away ninyo. Kung sino ka man, na sumulat sa bulletin. Pumupugay ako sa iyo. Hindi ako taga UP ah,s a totoo lang. Hindi rin ako taga FEU ah, sa totoo lang. Based ako sa ibang bansa, sa totoo lang. Oh sige, bahala na kayo sa buhay ninyo. Good luck na lang.

June 23rd, 2010 at 7:14 am
I came across this page when I was searching in the internet for top nursing schools in 2009 or 2010. I was shocked to read some of those comments regarding who’s the better school, etc.
Para sa taong sumulat sa bulletin, hmmm, nice letter! Ngayon ko narealize na yung headline talaga ng bulletin ay misleading. HIndi nagmamatch sa content. Nevertheless, I’m not questioning who’s the top and who’s number 2, binebase kasi sa category yan at sineseparate nila ang 1000+ takers, 100-999 takers at 10-99 takers. Congrats to FEU, St. Paul University Iloili, University of the Philippines Manila, Negros Oriental State Dumaguete, and Bukidnon State College for topping the list in 1000 and up takers, 100-999 takers and 10-99 takers respectively. Although, mali pa rin talaga yung headline ng bulletin. I can see that because I was once a journalist, myself.
I am not from FEU and I am not from UP also. Forgive me for saying this, but the one who commented about insisting that “TAMA ang nakalagay sa manila bulletin na TOP NURSING ang FEU..ang MALI eh hindi nilagay yung category…”. My goodness. It just shows you really did NOT understand the letter. Freshen up! Ang simple-simpleng English na nun. Dapat intindihin mo. Naintindihan ko yung sumulat sa bulletin kung bakit “top producing schools” dapat. Ang linaw linaw nung pagkaexplain niya. A high school student should NOT have any trouble understanding the letter with just simple english grammar used. Sorry.
And to the person who wrote the letter, I understand your point in posting it to this tambayan. The main reason why you posted it is because you want to disseminate the information to everyone. But the thing is, na high blood ka ata sa pinagsasabi ng taga FEU. Wag ganun. UP student ka. PinaPABABA mo lang ang sarili mo sa pakikipagargue sa mga walang kwentang comments ng taong yon. Sabi mo nga “UP You know your intellect, and you know their intellect. HIndi mo sila kalebel. Do not stoop to their low level by answering stupid questions like that.
“So ano pala ang reaction mo sa latest issue ng QS 2010 result ng top 200 University in asia where ATENEO outranked U.P…?…”
Buti hindi mo na sinagot yan. Pero ako, sasagutin ko. I know that UP is obviouly the number one school in the Philippines. And Ateneo outranking UP is the data obtained from the ranking of the world universities. I saw the data. #58 ang Ateneo, #78 ang UP.
Ito yung criteria nila:
* Arts and humanities
* Life sciences & biomedicine
* Natural sciences
* Social sciences
* IT & Engineering
Academic Criteria
* Academic peer review
* Recruiter review
* Student/faculty ratio
* Citations per paper
* International faculty review
* International students review
* Student exchange inbound
* Student exchange outbound
Methodology 2010
* Context & overview
* Asian vs world rankings
* Academic peer review
* Recruiter review
* Student/faculty ratio
* Bibliometrics
* International factors
* Definitions & data collection
“The universities were ranked based on relevant criteria, which include Peer Academic Review, Recruiter Review, International Faculty Ratio, International Student Ratio, Student Faculty Ratio, and Citations per Faculty, said Quacquarelli.”
Previous rankings
The 2008 World University Top 500 rankings, also conducted by THE-QS, raised eyebrows after Ateneo de Manila University led the Philippine universities in the top 500 list by placing 254th, edging out UP which ranked 276th.
De La Salle University and University of Santo Tomas ranked 415th and 470th, respectively.
“UP officials doubted the survey’s credibility since the organizers refused to disclose where it acquired the data used, making the methodology “problematic.”
They also revealed the “business side” of the survey where QS sells its various services in order to help universities improve rankings. (AH/Sunnex)”

Dun nila ibinase yun. So what if Ateneo outranked UP? It doens’t change the IMAGE and REPUTATION of UP as the best university in the country. It doesn’t mean that mas magaling ateneo kesa UP. Sa ranking nga ng CHED
http://www.prcboardexams.com/2009/08/top-philippine-universities-2009/
University of the Philippines Diliman ang nanguna. They based their ranking on the BOARD EXAM passers of each school.
Depende yan kung ano criteria nila sa pagrarank.
“We do not have to prove over and over again that UP is the best. Because there is nothing to prove.”
Oh, iyon naman pala eh. Sabi mo wala ng dapat iprove ang UP, bakit kung ano ano pa ang sinasabi mo riyan…ang galing ng UP, ang galing ng college ko. Hay naku. Alam na ng lahat ng tao na UP is the premiere university in the country where there is academic excellence and outstanding achievers ang mga students. Hindi mo na kailangang ipagMAYABANG sa publiko yun. Right?
Yun lang, ang haba na nito. Good luck.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/College_and_university_rankings
“However, the Times Higher Education-QS World University Rankings have been criticised by many more[23] for placing too much emphasis on peer review, which receives 40 per cent of the overall score. Some people have expressed concern about the manner in which the peer review has been carried out.[24] In a report,[25] Peter Wills from the University of Auckland, New Zealand wrote of the Times Higher Education-QS World University Rankings:
“But we note also that this survey establishes its rankings by appealing to university staff, even offering financial enticements to participate (see Appendix II). Staff are likely to feel it is in their greatest interest to rank their own institution more highly than others. This means the results of the survey and any apparent change in ranking are highly questionable, and that a high ranking has no real intrinsic value in any case. We are vehemently opposed to the evaluation of the University according to the outcome of such PR competitions.”
Some errors have also been reported in the faculty-student ratio used in the ranking. At the 16th Annual New Zealand International Education Conference held at Christchurch, New Zealand in August 2007, Simon Marginson presented a paper[26] that outlines the fundamental flaws underlying the Times Higher Education-QS World University Rankings. A similar article[27] (also published by the same author) appeared in The Australian newspaper in December 2006. Some of the points mentioned include:
“Half of the THES index is comprised by existing reputation: 40 per cent by a reputational survey of academics (‘peer review’), and another 10 per cent determined by a survey of ‘global employers’. The THES index is too easily open to manipulation as it is not specified who is surveyed or what questions are asked. By changing the recipients of the surveys, or the way the survey results are factored in, the results can be shifted markedly.
1. The pool of responses is heavily weighted in favour of academic ‘peers’ from nations where The Times (sic) is well-known, such as the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia and so on.
2. It’s good when people say nice things about you, but if it is better when those things are true. It is hard to resist the temptation to use the THES rankings in institutional marketing, but it would be a serious strategic error to assume that they are soundly based.
3. Results have been highly volatile. There have been many sharp rises and falls, especially in the second half of the THES top 200 where small differences in metrics can generate large rankings effects. Fudan in China has oscillated between 72 and 195, RMIT in Australia between 55 and 146. In the US, Emory has risen from 173 to 56 and Purdue fell from 59 to 127.”
kaya pala highly doubtful din ang THE – QS World University Rankings eh. masyado nilang binibigyan ng emphasis ang peer review.
“even offering financial enticements to participate”
http://www.educationsector.org/usr_doc/CollegeRankingsReformed.pdf
“An analysis of the latest U.S. News and World Report
college rankings shows that university scores are, directly or
indirectly, almost entirely a function of three factors: fame,
wealth, and exclusivity.”
“Thirty percent of the rankings are based directly or indirectly
on wealth. Direct measures include spending per student;
indirect measures include faculty salaries, class size, faculty
credentials, and other things that cost money to buy.”
That leaves five percent for the one real quality measure in
the mix—the difference between an institution’s statistically
predicted graduation rate, based on SAT scores and other
factors, and it’s actual graduation rate. Five percent for the
only measure that speaks to how well institutions work
to help their students succeed. And that measure is used
only for national universities and liberal arts colleges—for
master’s granting universities and comprehensive colleges,
U.S. News uses no quality measure at all.
ay kaya naman pala nanguna ang Ateneo kesa UP. Syempre, mayayaman ang mga Ateneo students, whereas UP students, although may mga ilan na mayayaman, karamihan sa amin ay average students lang. Hahaha. Kaya pala ganun ang ranking nila. Hahahaha. Now I knew the reason behind those rankings. Hahahaha

Thanks to the comments…I’m sure, the FEU-Institute of Nursing really appreciate the points they need to consider. Its certain that the misunderstanding here was just brought up by the school spirit that every one possess.
I remember when I received my UPCAT result. I was written there that I didn’t make it in the quota of nursing at the UP-Manila campus, instead they refer me to the Diliman and Los Banos Campuses. Even though I still have the chance to enter the most of you says “LEADING UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES” I still chose FEU. Thats it. However, I’m also in favor of those statement that says if there is congestion of students there is also a decrease in the quality of education; BUT THE THING HERE IS, IT IS THE STUDENT THAT DECIDE TO WHERE AND WHAT HE WANTS TO BE AND NOT MERELY THE SCHOOL WHO WILL DRAW HIS FUTURE ENTIRELY. Right?
To the FEU administration, with all you respect…I think there should be a CHANGE in your leadership and management. You guys should now STOP focusing on the PROFIT you are earning…I think this is the time to prove that FEU is consider to be one of the Philippines’ leading and well-respected university which I think since 1928 is already the aim of our founder, Dr. Nicanor Reyes. You guys should give your full support to the whole educational community and not just focusing on your AIM TO EARN BIG PROFIT, nevertheless I think it’s not a department store nor a financial firm…it is an EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION!
I appreciate the comments and suggestions of students from other school, I just don’t want to see comments that are really non-sense and non-factual coming out here.
