Senior High · Philippines
All four major SHS strands are eligible for UPCAT. They don't perform the same on it. STEM students dominate Math and Science. HUMSS students lead on Reading and Language. ABM tends to land in the balanced middle. GAS performance depends entirely on individual focus. Here's the honest comparison — without the marketing gloss most review centres put on this question.
Strand choice affects UPCAT performance by ~5-15% on average — but personal preparation matters far more. Any strand can score well with focused review.
