Was Rizal far below his standards at UST?

Elementary or high school standards should not be placed against College or University standards. None of his classmates ever got near to keeping a straight record of Sobresaliente. Rizals grades in UST must be compared not with his grades in high school but with those of his classmates in Medicine.

If Rizal was indeed below his usual grades, the following points must be considered:

Rizal was was not much attracted to Medicine. When Rizal transferred to Spain and continued to study at the University of Madrid, he was Excellent in humanistic studies (literature, languages, history) but he fared worse than at the UST in Medicine. He had the distractions of the youth as he gained more freedom in life.

Why did Rizal leave the University?

Asuncion Lopez Bantug

(grand niece of Rizal, direct descendant of Narcissa) Lolo Jose
-to learn more abroad -Dominicans had nothing to do with it

Why did Rizal leave the University?

Fr. Juan Vila, Rizals professor of Metaphysics in the Preparatory Course of Theology and Law; Fr. Evaristo F. Arias, theologian, poet and friend of Rizal (Dominican priests) -when Rizal was in his death cell (Dec 29) he was visited by the Dominican fathers, on of whom was Fr. Arias. They conversed with Rizal for some time -If I had followed the advice of Fr. Vila not to go to Europe until I had finished my career of Medicine, probably, I would not find myself in the sorry situation in which I am now.
