First, depends on where you're coming from. Are you from the Philippines or from the States? I'll give you my take about FEU. UERM I can't comment on. You can take it however you want.
The facilities are adequate. Adequate I mean don't expect to walk in with brightly colored tiles or a cutting edge facility (you know what I mean). The classrooms are okay I guess. The school is located in Quezon City (Fairview) and to be honest it's not that bad of a location compared to the other schools. There is a mall nearby (SM Fairview) about 5-10 minutes away but compared to the other Philippine malls it's not that great but you should be able to get what you need there. There is a Mcdonalds, Starbucks, KFC, Pizza Hut, and Jollibee nearby so be ready to order that stuff if you go. Otherwise there's a lot of places that actually can deliver. I don't recommend any of the gyms right NEAR the school but there is Fitness First at SM Fairview which can be a bit pricey depending on your budget (if you have one).
The school is about five floors and the undergraduate nursing, med tech, physical therapy students attend there as well. There is a small cafeteria where you can grab a snack btw classes. There is one decently sized lecture hall (fits about 100-125 students maybe?) and most of the other classrooms are regularly sized. The chairs I honestly think are from the 1960s or the 70s (wooden) and a bit uncomfortable after a while. Kind of embarrasing if you ask me. Most if not all the classrooms are air conditioned but once you walk outside to the corridors expect it not to be. The library to me is a joke (can't bring your own books in) but they did construct a new study area where you will be able to study. Then again it's only open until 6 PM everyday and you usually get out of class at around 5 so there's not many places to study unless you go outside of Fairview a little.
Registration is the biggest pain in the ass and to get your letter of acceptance you have to go here, then here, then there, then come back here...feels like a big rat chase or you're on that show "Amazing Race".
Classes usually go from 7 AM - 5 or 6 PM Monday to Friday and you might have a Saturday class. There's always a lunch break from 12 PM - 1 PM unless you have a "shifting" exam which is a unit test that covers about 3 or 4 chapters.
All the classes are usually taught in English but can be trying sometimes because they do add some tagalog along with it. For example, when they're explaining a concept the general idea will be said in English, but reinforced in Tagalog and most of the jokes are in Tagalog. If you're from the States like I mentioned earlier be prepared to have classmates that can seem to be a little less mature (ages usually range around 18-21) but they are very nice and friendly if you reach out to them or just meet them halfway. The faculty is definitely the the best asset of the school along with the students. As expected in another country there are certain customs/culture that you should get used to otherwise you'll be miserable. If you're a foreigner you'll definitely be noticed but not in a bad way or anything just that almost every teacher will ask so cuz if not they'll speak more in tagalog so it's just for courtesy. There's about 3-4 foreigners at FEU for each batch (year). Starting the year there may be as many as 10-15 or maybe even twenty but after a semester most likely a number of them will drop out and leave or transfer due to reasons like missing home, hard time adjusting, failure, that kind of stuff.
Your classmates will be rather competitive and if you're not used to the style of teaching and testing you'll have to adjust to it quickly as most of you're classmates will have an easier time to adjust to medical school or they will know most of the topics due to them having degrees in Nursing, Med Tech, etc. Again like I said tho, they will be nice and helpful but just be at the top of your game.
FEU itself is a great school. If you go to FEU and make it, then no doubt you will be trained well and also taught how to work hard. Although, if you're a foreigner you should go to a school that will be able to accommodate to your needs and that is the reason why I would advise you to maybe look somewhere else.
Most of the questions are not questions you'll see on your board exams, you'll have to get used to different types of modified questions. (That one you could figure out though). You will have to take your Step 1 after you graduate. That means you can literally lose up to 2 years after the match and also have to review most of the basic stuff from what you learned from your first two years and the style of step 1 questions.
To reiterate, it's not a bad school at all but I hope that you'll be able to weigh your options and make sure you ask yourself if this or that school is the school that you want to go to.
