NMAT Registration Guide - Road to MD

What is NMAT? 

The National Medical Admission Test (NMAT) is an instrument designed to upgrade the selection of applicants seeking admission to Philippine medical schools. It evolved from a widespread concern to screen qualified candidates aspiring for a medical degree. It intends to improve the quality of medical education in the country and envisions to elevate the medical profession to a level of competence through a careful evaluation of student potentials for future medical studies (CEM ).



Who is eligible to take the NMAT exam? 


You must be a GRADUATE or a GRADUATING STUDENT of any college (bachelors) degree course at the time of testing.



Frequency of NMAT exam: 


NMAT is offered twice a year which is usually offered around April and October/December. Check the CEM website for the exam date and registration date. 

NMAT Fee: 

P.1,900 payable at BPI (Bank of the Philippines Island).

Procedures in NMAT registration:
  1. Visit the NMAT CEM Website . Check for the NMAT registration, deadline and examination date.
  2. Create a CEM account
  3. Payment procedure - Pay at any BPI bank branch (P.1,900). Wait for their confirmation email regarding to your payment. You will receive review materials in pdf form together with their email.
  4. Upon successful registration, you have ample amount of time to complete the needed requirements [ transcript of records, valid id, nmat id form and the nmat examination permit (which is emailed two week prior to the exam date) ]. 
  5. Review, Relax and Pray.
I will make another blog post regarding the NMAT experience, tips and pointers to review.

J.CO on way to NORTH!

Finally! J.Co SM North is now open. Two nearby branch is located at Trinoma and SM North.  Hello long piles of line. Well hopefully, since North is now having a J.Co store probably Trinoma wouldn't be crowded as before and lines might be lesser.  J.Co donuts is affordable and not irritating on the sweet buds. Not too sweet and not too greasy. I'm so in love with alcapone and oreology. At a price of 500++ you'll be able to bring home 2 dozen of any donut of your choice. Plus point of J.Co ; they do bake your donut upon your request (if ever your desired favor is out of stock) and in front of you. They also got yogurt, coffee and j cool (iced drink/shakes).  Their website:  http://www.jcodonuts.com/

NMAT Questions

National Medical Admission Test (NMAT) Frequently Asked Questions: 1. Do I need to study for NMAT? Some will say na no need to study hard, since high school stock knowledge lang needed sa NMAT.

Do not ever believe sa sinasabi ng iba na madali ang NMAT at basic high school knowledge lang.  After taking the NMAT, I told myself "WTF sa nagsabi na basic lang ang NMAT" . You really need to study dahil may mga topic na need ng deeper knowledge katulad ng mga VSEPR sa Chemistry.  If you are aiming na magkaroon ng SCHOLARSHIP, study hard and aim for 90% and make sure na ang GWA mo sa college is 1.0-1.80ish 2. Is there a FAILING GRADE sa NMAT ? Fact: While there is a claim na walang failing grade or percentage sa NMAT , in reality super depressing kapag nakakuha ka ng 40% below. Why? because MAHIRAP makapasok sa ...

Vikings Sm North The Block

Good food, Good Life! Being a foodie, is such a good adventure. Love for food is best enjoyed with friends. Last 26, my friends and I had a reservation at Vikings SM North The block located at the 4th floor. We arrived at 12 nn past and was assisted to table 306.  I rarely do commit myself with lunch buffet and it is my first time to try Vikings SM North branch, because I used to love the Mall of Asia branch. Anyway thanks to "Twinnings", one of the reason why I've been pushing so hard to make this lunch buffet happen. First stop, Japanese section. Looking from the sushi selection, there is not much choices compared to the MOA branch. Tuna and sashimi carving station is pretty fine. Choices of sushi revolves around the california maki, temaki's, etc. To compensate, I satisfy my taste bud with Japanese Yakitori. While looking for the baked oyster (rockefeller) section, it was still on the process of being baked so got to wait for 5 minutes more....
