A native of Asingan, Pangasinan, Engr. Meriales said that he dreamed to become a topnotcher, but he did not expect that his dream will be realized. “Inambisyon ko na makasama ako sa top and noong gumraduate ako, sabi din ng Papa ko, simulan ko na daw mag-review baka sakali daw makasama ako sa Top 10”, said Meriales. “Na-encourage rin ako sa talk ng dating Top 1 sa board exam. Naisip ko na sana ako din “, he added.
CLSU graduates, including Meriales, took the exam in Baguio City, wherein the examinees were required to have a negative RT-PCR Test result, and to isolate for 14 days prior to the examination date.
Meriales said that taking the board exam during CoVID-19 pandemic is a great challenge. “Ang pinakamalaking effect ng pandemic ay anxiety. Bigla-bigla kasing nagka-cancel ang PRC ng exam. Kung magka-cancel kasi, sayang lahat ng hirap at pagod kaya tinitingnan din namin. Muntik na rin akong di tumuloy, nag-positive kasi ’yung dalawang kasama ko, ako na lang ang natira. Pinush din ako ng mga kapatid ko kasi sayang daw ‘yung opportunity”, he added.
Presently, Meriales is pursuing his master’s degree in agricultural engineering in CLSU, receiving scholarship support from the Engineering Research and Development for Technology (ERDT) program of the Department of Science and Technology.
