- In 6 year period (2003 – 2009) there were more than half a million (530, 988) nursing board examinees in the Philippines
- In 2008 alone there, there were 153, 108 nursing board examinees, graduates of Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
- The June 2008 NLE had the biggest number of examinees (88,649)
- It was only in June 2003 and December 2005, that the passing rate reached more than 50 per cent
- The lowest passing rate was in December 2006 (40.10 %) and June 2006 (41.23 %) which was the leakage marred NLE exam.
- More than fifty percent (53 %) of nursing board examinees in a 6-year period (2003-2009), have not passed the nursing licensure examinations.
On Aug 18 and 19 , 2009, a lot of these passers will troop to the SMX convention center for the much awaited Oath Taking ceremony.
I have been involved in teaching nursing students for the past 4 years and I was always telling them that out of 10 students, only 4 or 5 of them would pass.
Who will be among their group, it’s up to them. It is how focus and determine
you are to pass the NLE.
