I could say that considering the standards, it’s a little bit intimidating and exciting. Aside from that, I found the students very inviting and friendly,” Elise Agdeppa, a student from Pasay City South High School stated.   The admission test served as part of the school’s screening process for incoming SHS students who aim to pursue their studies in a STEM-based academic environment.
