The CSB Experience: Pre-Enrolling The Benildean Way

    A while ago, I was already half done with this 108th blog but the PC went off and all I've worked for got suddenly erased so I'm rewriting this again.

   Tomorrow, me and my fellow 107 students will throng the many comlabs in CSB to get ourselves "pre-enrolled" to the different courses for the third term. We do that by selecting a course (subject) with a specific time and day. Courses can be taken thrice a week (an hour a day), twice (one and a half), once (three). There are some that needed to be taken 4.5 hours a week so there times that they have to taken 4 times a week.

    For us froshes, what's wise is to just follow our flowcharts whcih states what subjects we want to take, although we are given the freedom to choice any other as long as we hold on to it with full accountability.

    Two weeks ago, I've al;ready enlisted my chosen subjects for next term and luckily, my soon-to-be adviser approved them all. The following are my future 3rd term subjects.

1. Filip13 (Filipino 3)
2. BMat2-x (Business Math)
3. Philoma (Philosophy of Man)
4. Petriid (PE 3-Individual Sports)
5. Reconse (Religion of the Consideration of the Self, or something like that)
6. Comsk2x (Communication Skills)
7. Worlite (World Literature)

    So far, I've drawn up three possible scheds, but the thing is, choosing a subject is easier said than done. There are a lot of considerations, especially those 4.5 hour subjects. Minsan alangin, minsan masyadong malayo. Even if I want to have an early MWF and a late morning to early afternoon TH, the 4.5 hour subjects make things complicated. I have the choice of taking whcih section I want to be.

    For example, for my TH 1:00-2:30 PM class, I can choose my Worlite class either at section Dv1 at the Taft campus, and on another one at Angelo King International Center in Estrada cor. Arellano. I can simply walk my way there after lunch on Tuesday and run after a previous class has ended all the way from Taft on Thursday for one way, the other way si to have one subject in the morning with a 4 hour gap before 1:00 Pm and another with a 2 hour gap before 1.

   My, college is getting complicated as the months passes by. I'm not sure I cant make it.  Although I shoulnd't really worry since the third term contains the last 3 months of the school as well as the last three months that us freshmen will get to take General Subjects. By next year probably, we may be able to take subjects related to our respective degree programs so I do hope that I would still be alive till then.

 

   GOOD LUCK and ANIMO BENILDE!
