The CNSM Science Week competitions proved to be an event where students of MSU-MSHS shone with their talents may it be photography, art making, writing, or quiz shows. Indeed, MSHS is an institution where students not just train in their academics, but also hone their skills and talents.
Along with its goal in achieving excellence and quality education, MSU-MSHS administered intensive review classes on November 5-7, 2019 to help and prepare the senior students for the MSU System Admission and Scholarship Examination (SASE) scheduled last November 10, 2019. All Grade 12 students from different strands were gathered in the Science Lecture Hall during the 3-day program. A simulation was then conducted on the last day to mimic the actual set-up of SASE. Students were strictly supervised and trained to follow given instructions. Proper dress code, and punctuality were strictly observed as the lecture hall was transformed into a testing center with seats placed far apart from each other. The review initiative aimed to not only revive necessary information but to also put the students in the mindset of an entrance exam. It aimed to help them figure out their strengths and weaknesses, learn techniques to test-taking and educated guessing, and discover new ways of answering and asking questions. After months of anticipation, the results of the recent Mindanao State UniversitySystem Admission Scholarship Exam (MSU-SASE) were finally released through the official university website on the 15th of March 2020. First to be seen on the results page were the 27 full scholars—21 of which are from MSU-Marawi Senior High School. Garnering a score of 115, Ms. Sitty Shahania Macarimbang secured the second place in the MSU-SASE 2019. Based on the list, MSU-Senior High School was able to procure over 481 passers: 21 Full Scholars, 23 Partial Scholars, 7 Special Muslim Grantees, 308 Baccalaureates, 84 College Bound Program, and 38 Technology. The intensive review administered by the MSU-MSHS faculty paid off as it has produced another excellent result in the MSU-SASE. With an impressive number of 47 students securing a place in the Top 20, the MSU-MSHS has once again proved that it caters excellence, and quality education.
