Anonymous member 378 - Chill class, doesn’t count attendance—just make sure to be present during quizzes/LTs - B+ w/ minimal effort - Finals orals (but all chill not scary)more

Agree with almost all of the comments here, but if wala na talaga kayong choice, trust in Parlan's curve nalang talaga 🤣 sobrang malala sya mag curve like 2 grades higher sa final grade 😫 To survive her class, make sure na love nyo mga ka group nyo (cuz kayo talaga mag sasama buong sem) + be active sa class nya. I goal na maging highest pts sa recit or try to get closer doon sa highest. I would say easy B/B+more

Anonymous member 575 i dont think so … (iirc) parang she’s more of a c/b+ prof

ALSO pala, she's such a smart person pero... she doesn't know how to teach :')) As an individual naman, she's very kind and easy to talk to hehehe

Legit answer: Ok, fine, she curves. But, that's pretty much it. She's sweet naman when you approach her individually (or with your group)—she gives genuine feedback re: your passes and group dynamics. She also makes chika a lot with the students (individually or by group), but she's very prim and proper once on-platform for module discussions / tests / etc. Also, if she has a trip, expect freebies haha. War flashbacks to announcing that there's a quiz 4 hours before the time **on the second week of classes**. Yup, we started w/ Module 1 and used up the entire three hours during first day of classes—longest three hours of my life ngl (it was night pa). So yeah, we had a quiz. I thought, as a beadle, I can contest it since originally, it was supposed to be a week after pa. But, she just argued that the syllabus is tentative(?). Anywaaaay, other than this one incident (which I find vvv inconsiderate), she listens to the class's concerns / requests din naman. Sometimes, she moves the deadlines for passes and/or final pass even when no one is asking for it pa naman. Quizzes and case study (quizzes) are fairly average. You just need to study lang talaga (and you can always use formula guide... or do you even need to use it? 🤔) and you're probably gonna pass the subject. Thooo, one concern is she tends to pit the class against each other. Recitations work s/t highest point getter would be the HPS. So if you are shy to raise your hand, you need to step up and out of your comfort zone if you want that A under recitations/class participation. Silver lining for our class is we are true unity 👊✌️. When we know we have several recitations na, we just shut up and give chance to others. KINDNESS!! IS!! FREE!!!!! So yeah, if you have a bida-bida classmate who doesn't know what solidarity is, gg kids haha. Final pass is not too difficult din naman. You just need reliable groupmates who'd pull their weight. Probably A-able I guess with a lot of effort. B+/B-able with saks efforts.more

positiveFINN 115

Had her for FINN 115 last sem so kwento ko na lang experience namin sa kanya. Note: if ayaw mo mag-beadle, wag ka papasok sa first day or wag kang pumasok nang maaga. Introduce yourself lang naman first part ng class niya and super dali pa ma-grasp yung Module 1 kasi it's all about ethics lang naman. Anyway, here's my review hahahs 1. You won't learn from her at all. If you don't know anything about Finance, then good luck. She speaks too fast and won't pause unless someone like me (na medyo makapal ang face) would tell her. Not sure about the content for FINN 113 pero the only thing na nagets ko sa class niya is the formula (kasi math major akez), the rest, good luck. Make sure to read her textbook kasi kahit yung ppt niya, wala ka pa sa ADMU yun n ginagamit niya ever since. Not aesthetic, sobrang congested ng text, and combined with her fast-paced class, aantukin ka na lang. 2. Competition. Utang na loob, this is the only class I have na grabe mag-promote ng competition. Good thing 6 lang kami sa class so two groups lang kami and for the most part, magkalapit lang grades namin. Lucky for you if you have great members pero pag may classmate k na foreigner, lalo na mga bwiset na French, be prepared na magbuhat nang malala. Also, listen to your group mate's input din and voice out yours if you feel like your answer in a specific question for the quiz bee and if you have a better input sa simulation. It will greatly save your grades. 3. Speaking of simulation, I think this can be the easiest yet most important factor ng grades mo. Lucky for u if u won't have this for FINN 113. In our class, 20% of our quiz grades came from 3 simulations and 40% naman is from the paper. Super basic lang ng paper as long as you applied the right reasoning sa decision making niyo for your simulation. As always, competition pa rin simulation niyo and I'm not sure if she'll gonna be use the same website as we had pero nag-Hubro kami. Supposedly, dapat may defense pa kami pero as a beadle, sabi namin wag na which is great kasi nakikinig siya samin. Pls learn and practice doing this kung magkakaroon kayo neto, otherwise lalamunin lang kayo ng mga bida-bidang members niyo. 4. Grading. Easy B/B+ if you're the top performing group. Basta group work, except sa paper, the highest score is the denominator. From individual and group recitation, group quizzes, and simulation itself, try your best na maging dikit yung scores mo if hindi kayo ang magiging highest. One trick na ginawa ng other class (they are 6 groups ata) is nung nagka-quiz bee sa class niya, all of them decided to match their scores sa lowest score kaya lahat sila perfect. Di namin ginawa sa class namin kasi, wala ayaw namin hahahaha. May mga worksheet din pala siya na worth 1% ng grades niyo (bale 5% worksheet tapos 1 per module). You'll spend HOURS to answer them kasi each worksheet are composed of three to five seatworks tapos worth 50-100 pts each. Ganyan ka-tedious. Her other quizzes are either searchable sa Quizlet or maghihirap ka talaga nang malala. Laging three hours yung quizzes niya including the simulation. Other thoughts: Super motherly si ma'am and she really knows her stuff. Di n ako mag-spoiler but she has the most impressive background sa lahat ng naging profs ko. Maaga rin siya pumapasok and thankfully, hindi n siya naka-cast but still it would be nice if you help her set-up before class. Masarap din siya kakwentuhan while setting-up kasi she will provide various info about sa mga current events sa financial kineso. She would entertain chikas and other Marites things. She would even give links for self-learning and other opportunities like yung sa BPI something. You might hate her requirements pero you'll definitely love her personality. I would like to take her class again!more

ok in all seriousness, she doesn’t return grades, lessons are not engaging + it’s usually confusing. She’s motherly naman pero in terms of teaching & learning i’d say look for a diff prof. Wouldn’t consider an easy A as well or baka it’s a me problem HAHA ALSO publishes modules through canvas v late then she expects na you went through it before class. Sometimes iba rin yung slides sa canvas from those that she present sa onsite classes. There was also a time when she announced that we’d be taking the long test four hours before the class (it was initially scheduled for the following week pa) NDJDJS best of luck!more

Robert does this mean na her quizzes are by group ba? jus to clarify HAHA sent a pm din hehe

Melissa Santos mostly onsite though we had one online (hardest one 😭😭 brings back buried-deep trauma) It's also by group similar with OPMAN, choose good groupmates 👍👍more

Hi! I took her last school year, 2nd semester. Honestly, totoo pa rin naman 'yung mga reviews niya na nasa P2P HAHAHAHA Super dami niya pinapagawa, as in. Tapos laging may graded recit. Tho nearing the end of the sem, naging group recitation na lang. Note lang though, the recit is only a smallll percentage of your grade, kaya don't be too worried about it! We had LTs also na indiv and group, saks lang? Ngl though feel ko auto-B+ 'yung class niya, esp to those na nakikitaan niya ng effort :))more
