Nursing board exam retake applies to all
'Nursing board exam retake applies to all'
All examinees, whether they passed or failed the June 2006 Nursing Licensure Examination, will be required to retake the leakage-marred Tests 3 and 5, ABS-CBN's Bandila reported Tuesday.
"Lahat ay kukuha sapagkat kung balewala ang [Tests] Three and Five ay walang nakapasa at walang nahulog (All examinees will be required to retake the tests again)...at no cost to the examinees," Labor Secretary Arturo Brion said.
The examination costs P900 per examinee.
Brion said that by sitting for Tests 3 and 5 again, examinees stand to prove two things: first, those who benefitted from the leakage will have another crack at the tests; and second, board passers will have a chance to clean the slate of the tainted nursing examination process in the country.
The labor chief said that his department and the Professional Regulation Commission are now studying the basic guidelines of the retake that is expected to be released within five days.
Brion said that he expects the President to sign a new executive order that would state the guidelines of the retake of Tests 3 and 5.
PRC is now under the supervision of the labor department based on an executive order signed by President Arroyo last month.
With regard to date of the exam retake, Brion said that examinees can sit for the tests on or before the NLE scheduled for December.
"Pwedeng mag-decide ang PRC na before ngunit hindi ko nakikitang mangyayari iyan sapagkat marami ang vacancies sa Board of Nursing at mag-a-appoint pa ang pangulong Arroyo (PRC can decide on a date before December but I doubt it because there are vacancies at the Board of Nursing and the President has yet to appoint replacements)," Brion said.
He said PRC’s Resolution 31, which ordered a recomputation of Tests 3 and 5 to make adjustments on the grades of the examinees because of the leakage, has been invalidated.
"We don’t agree to toning down grades on Tests 3 and 5. I don’t understand why it should be done," he said. "Everybody should take the examination again."
Some 17,000 examinees out of 42,000 nursing graduates passed the board examination given on June 11 and 12.
The leakage, however, prompted the government to order an investigation and invalidate the results of the exam.
Reports said that about 5,000 board passers have taken their oaths as new nurses despite a temporary restraining order handed down by the Court of Appeals. With reports from Korina Sanchez and The Manila Times

Eh inamin na nga ni topnotcher Brion, he does not understand....
Saka dapat nga retake all subjects--para mawala ang STIGMA ng UST na honor graduates nila ay bagsak. Sa retake baka pumasa na.
