can you please give the link/source of the 2005 ranking? thanks.



[quote=ezekiel ]

that ranking aformentioned is purely based on the passing percentage of various board exams and to think uscs' strong point is in arts and sciences .. prc and ched did not consider research breakthroughs/outputs to society, academic linkages to various institutions here and abroad, community extension, peer review, level of instructions(faculties with pHds and Masters degree) prestige here and abroad and etc tsktsk... just my two cents anyway...

BTW here is the latest rankings 1999-2005

1. University of the Philipines-Diliman
2. University of Santo Tomas
3. Saint Louis University, Baguio City
4. University of the Philippines-Los Banos
5. Xavier University (Ateneo de Cagayan)
6. Ateneo de Davao University
7. Ateneo de Manila University
8. Silliman University
9. University of San Carlos
10. Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Tech
11. University of the Philippines-Manila
12. De La Salle University-Manila
13. Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila
14. University of the Cordilleras(Formerly Baguio Colleges Foundation)
15. University of Negros Occidental-Recolectos
16. Mindanao State University-Gen Santos City
17. Polytechnic University of the Philippines
18. Mapua Institute of Technology
19. Central Mindanao University

Although the Philippines has one of the largest concentrations of colleges and universities in Southeast Asia, these are primarily teaching institutions and generally engage in research as a secondary activity. The universities with the heaviest involvement in research are: the University of the Philippines system (primarily UP-Diliman and UP Los Baños), Ateneo de Manila University, De La Salle University, and the University of Santo Tomas, all in the main island of Luzon; the University of San Carlos in the Visayas; and the Mindanao State University-Iligan Institute of Technology in Mindanao.

Sadly, Philippine universities are still hundreds of miles behind US and UK universities (even to our southeast Asian neighbor) when it comes to research output (still plenty of Philippine universities are focusing on undergraduate plus a very low budget appropriation for research & development and yes we lack PhDs and Masters ,)

i think the government should do something about this (this is very alarming)

i notice most of the teachers don't know how to teach.
the schools here should emphasize critical thinking skills, less on memorization.
students need to be more involve in class and question the teacher's teaching methods.
irritates me when teachers voice out their personal opinions on certain matter as if it's part of the lesson.
excuse me but you're not getting paid to shove your personal opinion down our throats, just stick to freakin' teaching the class
according to the books and relevant scientific facts.

yeahh you're right likewise i find some teachers who were always dreary when making a discussion...hmm cheerlessness perhaps , some get into fury everytime a student will ask a question.......i really have to work my ass just to get the right education without being reliant on the teacher ( honestly, i sometimes felt being more excellent than some of my teacher) ...

it depends upon the course you take-->> usc focuses more on engineering, pure and applied sciences (biology, chemistry, physics), law, pharmacy, accountancy, anthropology, and architecture
while silliman is on medical (including vet med) and allied health(pt, ot, nursing) , accountancy, marine
sciences, teachers educ.. oops i forgot (mechanical eng. pud diay)
