No repaying the mental anguish of board examinees

No repaying the mental anguish of board examinees

WITH all due respect, we don't want a retake! We don’t care if how many millions of pesos the government is willing to give us.

The government could repay the review fees and the cost of review materials, etc., but it cannot repay the mental anguish we went through in preparing for that board exam, and the time being wasted in waiting for our licenses to be releases.

We burned midnight candles, we turned our days into nights, and we were probably walking zombies as we gathered all the knowledge we had gained in four years of nursing school, just to pass the exam, be awarded our licenses, to see our parents happy and proud, and to repay the blood, sweat and tears they shed to send us to nursing school. We sacrificed a lot!

The board exam is not the only way we can prove our competence. Give us our licenses so we can show that we deserve them, and we will do everything in our power to protect that license.

If there is a "stigma" on the profession, which is why some in government want a retake, the solution is just simple: We will live in such a way that we will prove them wrong!

We were taught that we should be an advocate of our patient's rights. But how can we be advocates if we, as nurses, can't fight for our right to have the license to practice our profession, to have a job, to help our parents and move on with our lives.

The President wants a retake because of cheating. There was also cheating during the election; should we not also call for a reelection?

The 2003 bar examination did not have a retake, why should we retake our exam? Retaking the exam would mean we admit to ourselves that we had cheated. Retaking it would mean being cowards, because we did fight for our right as to get what is due us as legitimate successful examinees.

Why are they punishing the innocent? Has the world gone so mad that this is how it works? It is so easy for them to tell us to retake the exam because they were not the ones that prepared for and took it.

For the nth time already: No to a retake! Just give our licenses so we can prove our competence!

I hope Dante Ang, chairman of the Commission on Filipinos Overseas who is calling for a retake, is sleeping soundly tonight, thinking of the thousands of dreams he is shattering. I just hope and pray his conscience won’t bother him for the rest of his life, thinking of the 17,000 lives he shall have wrecked.

We are not sacrificial lambs. We are nurses with hearts full of compassion to serve humanity, and minds that know what is wrong and what is not.

Justice delayed is justice denied.

pgma.."we are not criminals so give us the license that we deserve"

NAPAKA UNFAIR MO GMA--ISANG SIDE LANG PINAKINGGAN MO, YOU LET YOUR OWN NURSES DOWN--WHY?BECAUSE MALAKI MAKICKBACK NYO SA 52MILLION--GRABE--YOU DO NOT EVEN DESERVE TO BE IN YOUR POSITION RIGHT NOW---SO SAD!!!THE PRESIDENT CAN'T EVEN FIGHT FOR JUSTICE OF THE INNOCENT!!!!

potek.. sa gnawa ng PRC Convicted na tyo.. maswerte lang kyo.. kc pumasa kayo.. well cno ba ang papayag.. lisensya na bka maging bato pa.. hahahaha.. gud luck nalang.. mag aral kyo nursing law.. dnt know bkit kyo pumasa.. tanung ko lang panu nga ulit makapasa??? unfair mukha nyo..

sa 1;10 pm poser

the answer is simple: pumasa kami dahil nag aral kaming mabuti at sinamahan namin ng dasal at paghingi ng tulong kay Lord.

Pumasa kami ng fair and square. Wag nyo lahatin ang mga sinasabing mga nandaya.

siguro isa ka sa mga nakakuha ng leakage kaya di ka pumasa!

hehe nagiisip ka ba? mas kawawa bagsak sa amin kung may retake? kasi isasabay sa december retake ng passers and board flunkers. Test 3 and 5 lang papa ulit, yung bagsak na iba hindi kakayanin abot sa average ng 75, so pag bumagsak sila ulit sa JUNE NA SILA ULit mag retake? kasi kayo hilig nyo makisawsaw hindi kayo nag iisip.

Dapat magreklamo ngyon yung mga bumagsak ano yan magiintay kayo ulit 6 months before kayo maka test ng lahat.

NAG ARAL KA BA NG NURSING LAW? PAG NILABAS NA PO ANG RESULTS SA DYARYO AT INTERNET AUTOMATIC MAY LICENSE NA KAMI? ikaw nag aral ka ba? :p

sa mga ndi nakakaintindi.. dapat kay prc rosero kayo magalit. ndi kay gma, ndi kahit kanino. bakit nya nilabas ang results?! sa totoo lang tayo din ang maykasalanan din nito. prenepressure natiun sila para ilabas na ang results.. pinoy tlga!!!!! walang question sa tinangal ang leakage. ang question ko lang, unfair ang ginawang statistical treatment sa exam natin. lahat apektado. kahit walang leakage. sana un ang isipin nyo. and yung leader nyong aquino ba yan?! mukhang walang kwentang tao naman un! u want to prove them wrong sinasabi nyo mga pumasa.. so yan na yung chance nyo na ipakita sa kanila na mali ang ginawa nilang pagretake sa inyo!

i salute mr aquino dahil may paninindigan sya same thing with commissioner rosero di tulad ng iba dyan.. walang word of honor..pero come to think of it kung uulitin lang ang 3 and 5 mas kawawa nga ang mga bagsakers kase pano kung di parin umabot ng 75 eh di tengga ule sila unless mag apply sila for all the exams this dec...hay only in the philippines....passers, we once made it we can do it again..lets just pray that God will help us to pass again...sa mga iba dyan nakikisali, think first before you speak who knows you might be in the same situation, well may be then youll understand the how we feel right now .

lam nyo, simple logic lang yan eh... parang if... then... therefore... statement lang yan... there was a proven leakage, right? so IF THERE WAS A LEAKAGE, THEN THERE WAS CHEATING, THEREFORE THE EXAM SHOULD BE VOID.

The PRC and/or BON tried to mend this problem by eliminating the Test III and Test V dahil dun daw ung leakage. But they should have not done that kasi those are major areas of nursing. If they deleted that how can they measure the competence level of an examinee on those areas? Another question again is how were they able to compute for the grades? sa tingin nyo tama yung computation nila para masabing passed ka or failed?

accdg to NBI they already have the list of schools/review centers who participated in the leakage. helo, cno ba namang matinong tao ang aamin na nagcheat sila? and sure ba sila na among those students and reviewees lang nakalat yung leakage syempre kumalat na rin pati sa iba yun.

ano bang kinakatakot nyong mag retake?? e test III and test V lang naman, di naman buong exam i-retake nyo.

pare-pareho lang kayong kawawa. buti think PGMA's stand is much better option for all of you guys! thats more fair and square for everyone. I am for retake!

di kme takot mag retake.. cnu ba me nagsabi na takot? kau lng nmn ng iisip na takot eh.. besides, sa nagsabing "lahat apektado dahil sa pag compute" nasabi mo na, lahat naman pla apektado, lahat ganun ginamit na computation, 17k lng pumasa.. BAGSAK ung iba? gets mo ung logic? kung sana sa mga bagsak lng ginamit ung computation na un well OK unfair !! pero sa LAHAT nga eh.. SA LAHAT? gets? papao maging unfair un... un fair lng un kung bumagsak ka ksi inalis ung LEAK questions.. meaning UMASA KA SA LEAKAGE !!

pwede bang magkaisa lahat na huwag n lng mag retake...para lng makita nitn kung ano gagawin ng pamahalaan, kung baga try nting huwag sumunod sa maling desisyong ito ni gloria...ano kya mangyayari sa 17k n nakapasa... nagtatanong lng!

more than 50,000,000.00 pesoses ang inilaan ng pamahalaan para sa retake (ang laki)... 14,000,000 lng ang kailangan...db tayo dapat mag-isip kung saan n nmn mapupunta ang sobra!

gumising tayo mga kapwa ko! d kaya tayo nagagamit para magkamal ang iba(corruption baga).

kahit anong isipin mo iisang computation ang ginamit para sa lahat sa mga nakapasa at sa hindi...anong problema dun!

kung iniisip ng iba magaling sila sa iba(ust,up,etc.kung sinu-sino man kayo n magagling wala nmn problem dun e...ed magaling n kayo, wala nmn kumokantra e!) kung jan kayo liligaya e...no problem

Hoy mga pulitiko n nakiki sawsaw sa issue... wala kayong alam sa profession ng nursing... buking n kayo kc malapit n nmn ang eleksyon...MATALO N SANA KAYO NGAUN!

tigilan nyo na iyang sinasabi ninyong tainted sa nursing profession...talaga lng mahirap ang buhay ngaun kahit sa ibang bansa...mga gago!kaya huwag ninyong gamiting dahilan ang hindi pagkuha sa mga pinoy na nurses ngaun mga panahonh ito sa amerika, united kingdom, maski d2 sa kinalalagyan ko kc kahit nakagraduate kat pumasa k ng board sa pilapinas kailangan mo p rin ng experience...mahirap talaga ngaun kahit saang dako ng mundo...

gumising ka pilipinas!

HAY NAKO, WILLING ANG GOVERNMENT NA MAG-ALLOCATE NG 50 MILLION PESOS PARA LANG SA RETAKE NG MGA KAWAWANG JUNE 2006 NURSES, ANG MGA TAO NMAN TALAGA D2 SA PINAS O! LALO NA UNG MGA NASA ADMINISTRASYON, AKALA NILA PERA LANG ANG KATAPAT NG LAHAT,HOY GMA, BAGO KA NGUMAWA NG RETAKE SA EXAM NAMIN, BUMABA KA SA PUWESTO MO, HINDI MO DESERVE ANG PAGKA-PANGULO!!!
