Let me convince you to make this a thesis.

Imagine losing your land not because someone stole it, but because you waited too long. That’s exactly what happened to two siblings. Their aunt sold a piece of shared land. They knew. They did nothing. Six years later, they tried to fight. But the Supreme Court said it was too late. They lost everything.

Here’s what’s really wrong. Too many co-owners in the Philippines don’t understand their rights. They think verbal notice isn’t enough. They think the law will wait. It won’t. The law punishes silence and delay. And no one is researching why this keeps happening. No one is asking how we teach people their rights before it’s too late.

Get Your Thesis Title — or Keep Getting Rejected

Bestie, let’s stop pretending you’ve “got it covered.”

You’re here because:

  • Your title keeps getting rejected

  • You don’t know the difference between a “topic” and a “research gap”

  • You’re guessing your way through something that decides your graduation

And let’s be real — you’ve already:
❌ Tried making titles from scratch
❌ Watched “How to Write a Thesis Title” TikToks
❌ Copy-pasted topics from other people's thesis (ooops?)

Still stuck? Exactly.

You don’t need more ideas.

You need a system.

That’s what the Thesis Toolkit gives you:

YTB Thesis Title Booster – because you need legit, research-based topics based on current trends — not random ones na “maganda pakinggan.”


Thesis Title Builder – because you keep forgetting na kailangan may survey source or research instrument ka rin, hindi lang title.


Research Gap Finder – because most of your drafts get rejected for one reason: Walang gap.

YOU NEED THIS IF...

  • You're tired of starting over

  • You're afraid to open your adviser’s feedback

  • You want a title, gap, and source na adviser-friendly and academically sound

This isn’t optional.
It’s either you use this toolkit...
or you keep wasting weeks writing titles na walang mapupuntahan.
