In several days is the Nursing Licensure Exam in the Philippines. It will be administered by the Professional Regulation Commission.

For sure, it will be taken by thousands of nursing graduates and retakers around the Philippines. Some of them, with their eagerness to pass the exam, are looking for leakage. In result, other people have become very vigilant to maintain the integrity of the board exam. If you are looking for leaked questions, you can browse around and check websites that offer them.

A message to all takers of June 2009 NLE, do good in the examination. Review, review and review. You can also check out my tips for taking standardized multiple choice exams.

The December 2007 Nursing Licensure Examination results has been released recently and now, it’s creating a big buzz on the online and offline community. [see results here]

Right now, I am in an Internet cafe beside Ateneo de Davao University. I’ve heard a lot of people talking about the results. There was even one person who shouted. Hahaha. This triggered me of trying to peep at the results. I was amazed when I saw the number 28,924. What? 28,924 board exam passers? 28,924 new registered nurses?

Okay, I’m trying to stop myself from maintaining my momentum, my view would not be that significant to the world anyway. I’m not against nurses, I admit, their number just overwhelms me. I know it’s easy to understand why too many people take up Nursing. There are a lot of opportunities abroad, right? But what is A LOT compared to A LOT MORE nurses competing for it.

I don’t know why I am writing this, but as far as I know I’m not taking the course. Anyway, It’s against my scholarship contract. Hahaha.

That would be all, I guess. I don’t like to write further, I’m afraid of MASS death threats. Hahaha.
