hi guys, just graduated this nov 2005 and took the NLE last dec 2005 luckily i passed with flying colors... why flying colors?? coz i got 80+ general average.... not bad for a graduate of a petty school else where... i wud advise everyone NEVER to review @ Pentagon NOR Gapuz (hope im not disrespecting anyone's fanaticism in these Review Centers) why?? i noticed they're more on the money-making side than helping u pass. why do i tell that?? coz 99% of my classmates reviewe there and were so excited that they paid the tuition in full.... only to find out that the method of teaching is not good.... picture this!!! hundreds to thousands to reviewers with only one reviewee on the stage.... its not conducive to learning.. we all know that the average 50 persons per lecturer is the ideal strategy... and they keep on telling that they contribute questionnaires to the BON test bank.... i once attended the Gapuz orientation at PCC hall (somewhere near Trade center, i think) and there were thousands of people with only one speaker... and if ur unlucky and late, ul never get a good seat and will never see even the hair of the speaker.... plus, i heard Gapuz holds its review simultaneously with their Davao and Cebu Branches.... (dunno if true) i am not advising you to attend these kinds of review centers choose a RC that hold a classroom type of lecture... especially to the first coursers... these RC are more conducive to learning if you only consist of few people in the lecture.... i know one RC @ REcto... EAsT WEST.... you will seldom see them advertise their RC on newspapers coz students literally walk-in to inquire about the review... the RC is more of a word-of-mouth kind of RC... they-ve been around for i think 20+ years coz my elder aunts used to review @ EAst WESt.... they say EW is a pioneer PLUS!!! the Dec 2005 NLE TOPNOTCHER (#1) FOR THE REGULAR STUDENTS CATEGORY..... THE GIRL FROM ATENEO DE DAVAO UNIV. REVIEWED @ EAST WEST.......enough said....... i rest my case
