Secret to success: Compete with yourself.
Never compare your self to others. Kung mas madami na silang na review? Good for them. Wag ka ma pressure sa kanila. Do it at your own pace. Make sure na you review by heart. Yung tagos na tagos sa puso para di mu makalimutan.

Yass kunin natin yung PRC LICENSE!!! Go RMTs💪
You’ll never know how “small things” could affect a board exam taker. Lalo na pag papalapit na and boards. Ang dami na nilang iniisip. Anxiety is taking over them. Choose to be kind and be gentle.
Kapit lang tayo future RMTs🤗
The glow up that matters✨
Hihi ngayon ko lang kinuha yung PRC ID ko but posting this as a sign na if you ever feel like giving up, remember na konting tiis nalang at makakamit mo na ang tatlong letra. So give it your best shot sa last 25 days. Kaya yan!🫶

61 days to go before August MTLE
I’ll be tweeting polls from Harr (ISBB) when I have time para makapag review ulit yung nakabasa na, para maka pag review yung di pa nakabasa and para sa mga gustong maging productive while scrolling sa twt☺️ Happy Aral RMTs❣️📌
At this point, surrender everything to God. Your months of preparation will pay off soon. The best is yet to come. Praying for all our future RMTs who will be taking the MTLE this March 21 and 22.

Everytime I doubt myself, God always give me a sign na ipagpatuloy ko sa march (tho wala talaga akong choice kasi I need to work na to help my fam) pero anyways, baka need mo sign na magpatuloy this march
This is it!!! This is the sign
MAGIGING RMT KA SA MARCH✨
Studytwt is supposed to keep us sane while reviewing. Papalapit na ang BE, please be mindful too. Do not be someone’s reason to panic or breakdown. No one will ever be ready,let’s just do our best. Syempre pray to the Lord Almighty na all our sacrifices will be worth it.
Iba talaga yung pain nang waiting game. Yung tipong pag wala kang ginagawa,biglang maaalala mo yung hinihintay mong results. Bigla kang makakaramdam nang goosebumps. But everytime it happens, just pray to God. Make yourself busy din. Treat yourself at lumabas ka. MAGIGING RMT KA
If you feel like being stuck, napag iiwanan, or parang wala ka pang sure sa gusto mong gawin sa buhay, then that is normal. Na realize ko lang na life is really uncertain and things don’t always go as planned. But that doesn’t mean na walang plano si Lord...

My dad was listening to something (tulfo ata yon😅) na I’m not paying attention to. Pero bigla nalang na narining ko ang “YOU WILL PASS YOUR EXAM AND GET YOUR LICENSE.” grabe goosebumps. Para bang sinadya ni Lord to make me hear that certain sentence. 🙏🏼🙏🏼
✨100 days to go magiging RMT ka na✨
Habang papalapit ang boards mas grabe yung anxiety.Last 3 digit na ngayon and going na sa 2 digits and in a blink of an eye it will turn into 1 digit. Wag na magsayang nang oras‼️ Give it your best shot. It’s either PAPASA or mag TO-TOP!!

📌”Suckling pig phenomenon”- a previously believed idea in which the developing RBC's in erythroid island were provided iron by the macrophages they surrounded
📌However, the developing RBCs obtain iron via TRANSFERRIN
So what is the role of the macrophages?...
Feeling ko andami ko pang need basahin at aralin. But that’s normal,madami talaga yung coverage for board exam. Be proud of yourself pa rin for your baby steps na kahit paunti unti, everyday may additional knowledge. Things can just be too overwhelming, pero lalaban parin💪
Year 2023: The Year that I will have that RMT in my name✨🙏🏼
Happy New Year sa lahat❤️ Take time to enjoy the first day of the year with your loved ones. Sa year na to, makakabawi na din tayo sa kanila especially to our parents who sacrificed so much for us. Fighting RMTs!!
Tomorrow will be the start of your 2 day examination to become a Registered Medical Technologist✨ You did your best and you sacrificed a lot of things. Now, surrender your worries to God. He is in control. He will never leave you.
Proud of you RMTs💓
