Congratulations po sa inyo at sa anak ninyo. Well done! On the matter of INTARMED po, hindi po siya automatic to Oblation Scholars. For a student to be considered then subsequently accepted to the INTARMED, he or she must be one of the top 50 male or one of the top 50 female qualifiers (ranked according to UPG) who have indicated an interest in the INTARMED Program.

Field number 9 of the UPCAT Personal Data Sheet pertained to INTARMED. It went like this:

9. Are you also interested in entering an accelerated program leading to Medicine? 2 No 1 Yes (Only those indicating their interest will be considered for this program)

Alam niyo po ba kung ano yung isinagot ng anak niyo sa tanong na ito?

Anyway, If I were you, I’d still call the UP Office of Admissions. They may be reached at: Telephone number (632)981-8500 local 3827, 3828, or 3831.

Once again, congratulations!!!

Thanks for sharing your story. I’m sure you will inspire our would-be freshmen into looking beyond the UPCAT. May you pass the CPA Board Exam in 2014. Cheers! Do come back when you have time; we’d love to have more college students at Academic-Clinic to share their insights with incoming college students.

Itatanong ko lang po sana if pwede pa ba mag qualify for INTARMED program kahit na hindi YES yung answer ko sa UPCAT question no. 9 sa form 1?

May iba pa po bang paraan para ma reconsider o mka avail sa INTARMED?

Thank you po.
