Let me convince you to make this a thesis.

On June 30, 2025, over 18,000 elected officials took office across the Philippines. For months, they walked through alleyways, shook hands, and spoke with fire in their voices. Promises flew. Hope rose. And then the youth, 31 percent of the voting bloc, shocked the system. They defied the polls. They changed the game. They believed that their vote mattered. And it did.

But now the hard truth is this. After the cameras fade and the streets go quiet, promises are too often forgotten. People don’t want slogans. They want food. They want jobs. They want to be seen. The problem is not politics. The problem is betrayal. The trust of the people is not a PR tool. It’s a responsibility. And most elected officials don’t act like they know that.

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.
