CSU ENTRANCE EXAM REVIEWER | Prepared by: Chazaye

Hello,future CSUan’s!

Pls take note na what’s in here is dili jud mao ang mugawas.
This reviewer is based on unsay nigawas last entrance exam.
So, don’t just depend on this reviewer. You can still search for
more in the internet.

Tips/things to do in reviewing:

2. Do not memorize word for word. Choose

keywords to remember.
3. As much as possible, recall everything na inyong
na lesson karon especially your oral com, reading
and writing, and gen math. (Surely, naa jud ni sila)
4. Read a lot of resources especially mga quizzes
from your senior high. (you can visit quizzes in
google)
5. Sa English Ninyo, more on vocab and situational.
Extra tips, If ever taas kayo ang story or situation,
read the question first because there are question
na ma answer ra diretso even without reading the
text. There are text na nonsense lang. Not totally,
but actually not necessary.
6. Sa math, I advice you to familiarize how to solve
labaw na kaning uban nan aa diria because we
don’t know maybe same2 rag questions before.
7. For abstract, dili maliiton ang abstract because I
think it’s 40 items or 35 items and if dili ni siya
atrungon, it will greatly affect all the subjects. All
you need to do para mas fast ka is to look for
pattern.
8. For science, last year is mostly situational,nay
chem and physics, pero kaya ra. So if situational
sabton ra jud siya ug pinalabad.

Tips/ Things to do during the proper exam:

9. Start first with the subject you love or kanang feel

nimo kaya ra. If you are not into math, ayaw jud
siyag unaha. For me, just a background sa akong
pag take, giuna naku ang akong science, then
English, abstract (gitarong naku akoa jud diria kay
dako kayg bawi), last math and know, math naku
is pinataka. Like almost na mahurot ang time so
worth it for me na giulahi naku siya because time
consuming siya.
10. If you don’t have answers yet, laktawi. Do not
waste your time sa isa lang ka question.
11. If wala najud ka kasayod sa answer, just trust the
letter “C”. Same sa akoa. I’m not saying na this wil
work in you, but yes, sa akoa it does.
12. Listen to the instruction carefully kay aron dili ma
disqualify.
13. Chill lang dili mangulba, think positively.

And pinakaimportante,

1. Do not trust on your own understanding. Ask for

guidance and help from the Lord. Remember na

CSU ENTRANCE EXAM REVIEWER | Prepared by: Chazaye

 mutabang si Lord but you have to do your part
sab. Ayaw pagsalig kay naa kay Ginoo. Faith
without work is dead.

If you need help soon sa inyong enrollment, application,

entrance exam, feel free to reach me. Ready to help.

FIGHTING FUTURE MAGBUBUGSAY!
