The senior high school students gathered in the audio-visual room (AVR) during their homeroom period this morning, July 9, 2025, for the Senior High School (SHS) Testing Orientation organized by the Guidance Office that aimed to prepare students for the upcoming aptitude examinations and help them discover their individual learning styles.
Ms. Charisse Polotan, the school’s psychometrician, briefed the students on the different aptitude tests they will be taking. For Grade 11, the Readiness Test for Senior High (RTSH) is scheduled for August 27, 2025, during their homeroom period. They will also take the Otis-Lennon School Ability Test (OLSAT), though its official date is yet to be announced.
Meanwhile, the Grade 12 students will take the Readiness Test for Colleges and Universities (RTCU) on January 7, 2026, also during homeroom. They are also set to take the Scholastic Abilities Test for Adults (SATA), which likewise has no official date at the moment.
After the briefing, students accomplished a modality questionnaire to determine their preferred learning style—whether visual, auditory, or kinesthetic.
The orientation aims to help students prepare not only for internal diagnostic exams but also for external testing requirements such as college admission tests. By discovering their learning styles, students are encouraged to develop effective study habits and train themselves to approach exams with focus and confidence.
