The Fourth Quarter 2025 survey, conducted from Nov. 24 to 30 with 1,200 adults nationwide, recorded a net satisfaction rating of -3 (percentage of satisfied minus percentage of dissatisfied), which SWS classifies as “neutral” (+9 to -9).

The SWS terminology for net satisfaction ratings is as follows:

+70 and above, “excellent”; +50 to +69, “very good”; +30 to +49, “good”; +10 to +29, “moderate”; +9 to -9, “neutral”; -10 to -29, “poor”; -30 to -49, “bad”; -50 to -69, “very bad”; and -70 and below, “execrable.”

SWS noted that President Marcos’ latest net rating was a slight improvement from neutral -5 in September 2025, after a steep decline from moderate +10 in June 2025.
