Grade 11 — start your entrance test review early
UPCAT applications opened in March in recent cycles — while applicants were still in Grade 11 — and the test ran in early August, at the start of Grade 12. Other schools open applications from mid-year. Starting your review in Grade 11 means steady practice instead of a rush.
Where it can lead
- Grade 11 students aiming for UP, Ateneo, La Salle, UST or PUP
- Students in any track
- Anyone planning to take several entrance tests
Entrance tests to plan for
Your Grades 8 to 11 also count toward your UPCAT University Predicted Grade, so keep your Grade 11 grades steady while you review.
The SHS curriculum has changed
From School Year 2026–2027, students entering Grade 11 follow DepEd's Strengthened Senior High School Curriculum: two tracks — Academic and Technical-Professional (TechPro) — with elective clusters in place of the old STEM, ABM, HUMSS and GAS strands. Students already in Grade 12 finish under the strand system. Schools only offer the tracks and electives they have teachers for, so check with yours.
