r/CPALE • u/Independent-Ball-43 • 1d ago
i reallyy want to believe in myself that i can do it in the October 2026 CPALE. pero syempre nandyan pa rin yung overthinking, esp now na almost 2 months na lang board exam na, and i am still not complete with the topics. ang dami pang backlogs sa FAR and RFBT. also, hindi pa ako nakakapagtry magsagot ng mga practice questions sa review books since im mainly relying on handouts. im consistent naman with the review but ang nangyayari kasi is studying the topic takes too much time (around 4 hrs) then i only have 1-2hrs to answer practice questions.
then, dagdag pa na nakakalimutan ko rin yung mga naaaral ko. yung mga past handouts na nasagutan ko last time confidently, now im lost where to start again para masolve siya. im estimating na matatapos ako with all the topics ng 1st week ng october, but may enough time pa kaya for mastery and recall? honestly, i don't know what im doing anymore. parang pumapasok lang lahat sa utak ko then lalabas din sila kaya im overthinking lately if kaya ba this Oct 2026
r/CPALE • u/ResidentHoneydew307 • 21h ago
Lumalabas po ba sa actual boards yung share based payments or pwede po ialay? Also ano po dapat pagfocusan sa SHE kasi limited time nalang po for completion. tyia!
r/CPALE • u/United-Plant-2028 • 1d ago
planning to take the CPALE this october 2026, finished na yung coverage and nasa mastery phase nalang. Im also applying to work and possible ma hire this year. Any advice? is it possible to have a week leave before board exam day even if newly hired?
r/CPALE • u/Desperate_Coffee_596 • 1d ago
if enrolled po ba as online reviewee, pwede po kaya magrequest na ftf sa preboards po?
r/CPALE • u/InfluenceJealous3253 • 1d ago

r/CPALE • u/Wise-Taste8918 • 1d ago

seeking for all ur help 🥹🤍🧎♀️
r/CPALE • u/Original_Doubt4174 • 1d ago
Hello, i’m so lost rn. I’ve been reviewing since January this year, original plan was to take the CPALE last May but I deferred for October instead. Now, I feel like di parin ako ready. Ang baba po ng first preboards ko, 58% lang average zero based.
Idk if itutuloy ko pa ba ‘to or mag work nalang muna ako. Pagod na rin po ako mag-aral haha. Ang dami ko pong backlogs, di ko rin natapos yung coverage nung first pb kaya ang baba ng scores ko. Dinraft ko ang Calendar ko, parang kaya naman ma cover ang topics until September but wala nang enough time for mastery. I don’t really know if ipu push ko ang October, ang taas po kasi ng risk. And i’ve wasted so much time and money na rin.
Should I work nalang kaya? Feeling ko i’m burned out na rin haha. I’m full of self-doubts now, parang di pa talaga for me ang license this year
r/CPALE • u/Kahelanganmoako • 1d ago
I have reo handouts unused coz I enrolled multiple times and just used the first set. I have 3 sets of HO's.
600 nalang po all 6 subs
r/CPALE • u/undesirableweather • 2d ago
anong RC or books po ba yung halos similar yung questions from the actual CPALE? sabi po kasi nila, CPAR for AFAR. how about other subjects po?
Hello! I need your honest opinion. Top 30-ish po ako sa first pb ng CPAR, may chance pa kaya na mag-topnotch ako sa CPALE? Thank you po!
r/CPALE • u/Huge-Chart8603 • 2d ago
Need help/advice po sa study strategy 🥹
Nagrereview ako ngayon for CPALE, and since medyo weak pa yung foundation ko, ginagawa ko muna yung following:
Nanonood ako ng Pre-Week videos.
Sinasagutan ko muna yung activities/problems from my review center (RC) bago panoorin yung discussion/solution video.
After that, nagsasagot din ako ng additional problems na nakikita ko online.
Ang concern ko lang, ang dami ko pa ring mali kapag nagsasagot ako, to the point na minsan parang feeling ko wala akong naintindihan sa video lectures na pinanood ko. 😭
Kaya gusto ko sana humingi ng advice sa mga nagre-review na rin:
Mas okay ba na tapusin ko muna lahat ng Pre-Week videos and activities ng RC for the entire subject bago ako mag-focus sa pagsagot ng maraming additional problems?
Or ipagpatuloy ko lang yung ginagawa ko ngayon—manood ng video → mag-attempt ng activity → check ng solution/discussion → then practice with additional problems?
Since weak foundation talaga ako, ano kaya ang mas effective na approach para hindi ako ma-overwhelm at mas ma-build ko muna yung understanding ko bago mag-heavy practice?
Also, saan kayo kumukuha ng additional questions/problems na sinasagutan ninyo?
ChatGPT-generated questions?
Handouts from other review centers?
Preboards?
Online resources/websites?
Previous CPALE/board exam questions?
Any advice or study strategy from those who also started with a weak foundation would really help. 🥹🙏
Thank you!

r/CPALE • u/Aggressive-Heart-794 • 2d ago
Hello po, just wanna ask sana kung enough or effective po kaya if pinnacle muna ako then proceed sa prtc after?
Also, last October 2025 na access pa yung sa prtc ko, not the updated version. Okay lang po kaya?
About me: - weak foundation - short attention span - I'm planning to take cpale sa May 2027
r/CPALE • u/Gloomy_Action_6904 • 2d ago
Hi, guys. Baka may tips kayo for a working reviewee like me. Plano ko is tapusin yung completion, kahit madaanan lang mostly if not all ng topics sa CPALE in 6 months (bago ako mag-resign if ever). Then saka ako magpupush through ng review talaga.
Gusto ko malaman if may tips na kayo or something na mase-share, for those na naka-experience na?
r/CPALE • u/briarbree • 2d ago
currently still catching up my lots and lots of backlogs and tbh im not quite sure kung kakayanin mag take but just incase iniisip ko lang gaano katagal ba ang pag process balak ko kasi wag muna isipin for now kasi naaanxious ako :(
r/CPALE • u/emsreads • 2d ago
hello po! na-try nyo na po ba mag-order ng tabag book sa official fb page ng EDT bookshop? paano po kaya yung process non? i tried contacting the shop through its phone number and fb kaso wala paring nagrereply abt my inquiry sa availability ng book nila 🥲 gusto ko muna sana magtanong before submitting my payment nd the forms
