I LOVE maam bunag, GOATED, recite and focus on lecture
positive
CourseHISTO 12
Retake?Yes
i LOVEEEEE maam bunag !!! GOATED PROF super bait niya medjj nakakaantok (slight) sa class but as long as ure super bibo she has these drills in class to help energize u !
if u get maam bunag the readings will help yes pero not super required naman for the exams. focus on her lecture (ppt) AND the things she says in the class talaga. try to recite as much as possible bc it will def help you gain more info!! :))
maam bunag's SUPER nice & i reallyy enjoyed her class. her LTs have an essay portion, multiple choice, and enumeration (but the enum rly isn't that scary as LONG as u memorize the ppts tlg)
maam bunag's a really amazing histo 12 prof to learn from!
sa assesment naman, she made us do a podcast for our final project ++ a paper in which kinailangan namin maghanap ng deets sa oldriz (this paper will basically test your knowledge din on how you can connect the administrations !!)
both of them are doable naman as long as you
(1) have good groupmates (2) properly organize your insights/learnings from class throughout the paper & podcast.
her grading system is pretty straight-forward! :)) A-able talaga siya. maam bunag's class is definitely a class i would take again ^^more

Not an easy A this year
mixed
4.0 attainableYes

hello. as someone taking her this sem she is absolutely not an easy A as the older reviews say. she's A-able and i don't think you'll fail but this year i think she changed her syllabus, or at least yung style ng LTs niya. it had multiple choice, identification-enumeration, and 2-3 essays. it felt heavily based on memorization rather than actually understanding history :/
after taking her first LT girl i wouldve rather had a theo oral. and i hate theo orals. dinalian naman niya yung second LT (but not super easy to be clear ha) but 20% each LT so malaki talaga hatak if u just get one bad score lol. if u dont mind getting a B+~C+, her workload is pretty ok naman and she's nice. she also gives candies to ppl who recite and it is true that she is very organized.
just to note: as someone who got really high scores (A's & B+'s) in her other reqs aside from literally just one LT, i'm on the verge of getting a C+..... π€£more

love her !!!! one of the profs i most highly recommend in admu hehe. her class is very organized (all readings & ppts are posted before / right after her lectures, all deadlines are v clear in the syllabus) so di masakit sa ulo, and workload is v light too - just 4 lts, a grp presentation, and synthesis paper. her tests are superr manageable and she grades high too! she's an easy a but you'll still learn, as she really puts effort in her lectures, which are very easy to follow even without the readings HAHAHA also she's so sweet <33 during our final exam she gave everyone a candy when they finished HAHAHAmore

do you know if she changed something in her syllabus which is why she is no longer an easy a?
would you also say that she is now a med a to easy b+?

One failed LT tanked me to a C+, no curve
negative
LeniencyNo
no she does not curve. yes the C+ was really bc one failed LTβ i scored very high in her other requirements as in above average according to canvas. i think that's what really made me annoyed kasi i know i worked super hard on her reqs, even spent 2 weeks working on her final req but just bc of one failed lt, di na talaga ako nakabawi π€·
ifl mahirap sagutin yung last question bc i already know how her subject goes so if i took her again i alrdy know what to expect. tapos it really depends on "notorious" bc thats also vague....more

Hello!
CourseHISTO 12
Hello! Does she curve? also was the C+ bc of a failed lt (like failing one lt rlly drags ure grade down like that)? Also, how many items was her LTs? Would you take her again if she was like the only choice between other more notorious histo 12 profs?more

Manageable if you listen, exams are in the slides
positive
hi not op, but for me, manageable sha as long as u listen & take down notes, more specifically sa slides nya! she uploads her slides naman tho sa gdrive hehe
exams r vv objective tlg so u need to remember certain details (like names, etc. but not dates) but theyre all usually in the slides nmn,, ull b able to gauge on how she does her exams nmn sa first lt nyo
took her second sem sy 2425!more

Aim for B/B+, even top scorers missed A
negative
i believe she changed the percentage of her LT's. idk if anyone got an A in her subject in my class because i usually was one of the top scorers (or at least average) in her class and didn't even get an A π€·
unless she changed her grading scheme again, aim to have straight B's or B+'s than A's with one failed LTmore

LTs are easy, A-able with minimal effort
positive
4.0 attainableYes
LeniencyYes

LTs are easy! Mucho, identification/enumeration, + short essay (15 lines).- Super objective and as worded on PPT. All content are on the PPT (and mods sometimes). - Essay will often ask you to describe the characteristics or effects of something or someone (e.g. Marcos administration on PH). Found her A-able with minimal effort (but don't abuse and be nice to her pls! )more

Sweetest, empathetic, light workload, LTs from the PPT
positive
Retake?Yes
WorkloadLight
Ma'am Bunag is the sweetest! Very empathetic towards her student's needs (including deadlines!).
Light workload. 3 LTs, super minimal readings, no quizzes. 2 major groupworks, and some group activities in class sometimes (rarely).
All LT content is in the PPT like she promises, but check her modules rin! Sometimes she'll insert 1 or 2 questions from the modules that weren't mentioned in class.
Bonus: She always hosts review games with small snacks as prizes.more

Currently taking her HISTO 12 class and super goods! She grades high talaga to the point na mas mataas pa ang scores na nakuha namin sakanya kaysa sa panel (classmates lang din namin). You can see the passion talaga when she teaches. And asked her about her teaching style sa socsc and she told me na same lang din sa pano siya nagtuturo sa histo 12. The requirements naman are super manageable and id say easy siya.more

Hi! Had Maam Bunag for Histo 11 (but siguro same approach lng sya with Histo 12?)
From my experience in her Histo 11 class:
- vv chill and understanding
- gives the ppt after every discussion
- had a quiz/LT for each module but it was easy bc everything comes from her ppt/readings
- iirc quiz/LT consists of objective type, T/F, essay
- she gives snacks/candy π
- midterm is a grp paper while final is an indiv paper (BOTH ARE DOABLE AND MANAGEABLE)
- there would be times we would have sessions where we will just watch a documentary
- workload is definitely not heavy:))
OVERALL EASY A!!!more
