CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR TOWERIAN CIVIL ENGINEER FROM TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY OF THE PHILIPPINES - MANILA!
WE’RE SO PROUD OF YOU, ENGR. APRIL A. ENGO!
Towards the days of finishing college, I remember being terrified with just even the thought of soon taking the infamous 'CE board exam'. Maybe I internally felt that I was not ready with the knowledge I gathered in college. Though the professors at my alma mater are exceptional at teaching, I knew I lack the top-down view of all the topics and concepts to be able to appreciate them fully and notice the connections they have with each other—TOWER CERC was able to ease away this worry of mine by filling the gap I had as I delve into its review program.
I admire its 'back-to-basic' approach in reintroducing topics which makes building up to difficult ones effective due to more robust and concrete foundation [pun intended; that's Engineer humor for yah!]. It being the longest review season, clocking in to almost doubled than that of other RCs, gave me more space to absorb and master topics, and more time to be introduced to miscellaneous ones as well. F2F classes are exceptional due to the competent and ever approachable lecturers (shoutout especially to Engr. Bugs, Engr. JC, and Engr. KD). Cataloged video lectures are massive help as well when going back to specific problems and topics. Weekly assessments and three pre-board exams are hard (NGL, HAHAHAHAH), but proportional to the level of difficulty I needed to be accustom to. Not for nothing, but Tower with its free stuffs?—ID, shirt, reference book (very comprehensive and enjoyable to answer), and meals on the first and last day—are insane!
Speaking of! I would like to thank our lecture professors for imploring your expertise, secrets, and tricks to provide us with increased odds of passing the exam for the first and (hopefully) last time. To some level, it is a "job" for you, but know that you all have been instrumental to kick-start our professional journeys. Thank you so much po, Sirs! 🙌
Lastly... HAHAHAHHAHAHAH.
STORY TIME: Back in the start of our review season, I received my free shirt that has a massive "ENGINEER" text in front. I felt unpleased to wear it since I am yet to become an Engineer. And so, I made a pack with myself that I shall only wear the shirt after passing the exam. Sure enough, with all prayers and hard work, I am able to wear it now and that is, in big part, because of Tower. Sincerely, thank you po! ✨❤
