Hello, need help lang po. I was planning to apply for MEXT 2025 and I'm now in my 12th grade this upcoming school year. I recently found out that the deadline is May 27 and it's already June 9. Is it fine to still apply next year and pursue my undergraduate degree there right away or am I suppose to take a gap year?

Hi, I had same situation last year, after deadline I'd found up about MEXT, and no you cannot apply after deadline. Honestly, Id recommend you to take gap year (if you really wanna study in Japan) and prepare yourself for written exam. Also, you can start learning Japanese along with preparation for written exam (for me it's really hard>_<) Go and have a look on sample tests on their official website. Subjects are different depending on your choice 1)Humanity and Socials 2)Natural science Good luck 🍀 if you need more info, feel free to ask

Hi! For the embassy recommendation pathway, your research plan is essentially your proposal ☺️ so the research plan will suffice. (the format once you apply for the MS/MA/PhD program with the University down the line may change, however, depending on what will be required of you by the Uni, but at least for the embassy, the two are the same ☺️) Hope this helps!

I’m really sorry to hear that, and I agree - especially at that price point, it is unacceptable! I haven’t had issues with mine, but will now be in the lookout. Perhaps you could try reaching out to their CS? I’ve never done this before, but my experience with their sales associates at Galeries Lafayette last year was over and above what I was expecting, so many their online counterparts would be just as helpful (crossing fingers!)

Exam is now totally waived for research category as MEXT decided that Philippines is English speaking country. We did took the exam for japanese though but they said it has no bearing. In my experience my interview went smooth, they did not ask much on my research just some clarifications on definition of terms. Most of the time it was story telling. What struck me was the last question they ask, "Unfortunately we cannot accept all of you as we have limited slots, WHAT makes you more qualified than the other applicants to receive the scholarship?" Fortunately I have big edge vs other applicants being topnotcher and being a member of NRCP (national research council of the Philippines) with the panels happen to be members of also. To aspiring mext scholars goodluck! see you all in Japan

Thank you for watching!☺️ I hope it was helpful somehow 😅 I find the straps a bit short, so in my case unfortunately I can only really carry it either top handle or crossbody. The Vincennes though have longer straps and are better-suited as a shoulder bag, so you might want to check that out!

I suspect there will be another price increase again soon, but I hope you're able to get the 41 Paris Blue before then. Please let me know how it goes! :)

Straps are comfortable and no wear in sight (at least for now). There is a bit of rubbing on the corners, but considering that it has been through the wringer, they are not as bad as I typically would expect. Hardly noticeable! Getting another one is definitely in the pipeline for me, but just like you, I would have still preferred the 37 over the new 35. I'm a new subbie of yours, too! Love your beauty content!

Hello! I'm so sorry I got back to you so late! :( My mini zips are able to stand on their own with the base flattened if they contain heavier/studier things (in my case, a hardbound planner and a continental wallet would allow this!) When stored empty though, I have to use bookends on one side to support them. The handle drop of the Brégançon PM are a bit short and the MM ones are a bit snug for shoulder wear during the colder seasons (still possible, but somewhat uncomfortable). This is actually the reason why I have been eyeing the Vincennes! :) I'm so sorry again for the late reply! Hope this helps somehow! :)
