JUNE 2006 NLE RETAKE: PARAMETERS THAT ARE FAIR TO ALL

FACTS:

1) It has been a fact that the (100) one hundred item test III has been leaked of only (20) twenty questions.
2) It has been a fact that PRC released the results for all the tests EXCLUDING the 20 leaked questions of test III.
3) Then it is also a fact that the remaining (80) eighty questions of test 3 are VALID.
4) Any evidence presented beyond what has been presented before can be a product of FABRICATION.

RULES:

1) To pass the NLE, an examinee must average a minimum of 75% from the entire Examination from tests I to V (a total of 500 items).
2) But if an examinee averages 75% or higher but fails to reach the minimum 60% in any (1) one of the tests from tests I to V, the examinee may retake that test alone where he/she was not able to reach 60%. It is termed “conditionally passed”.
3) If an examinee fails to reach 60% on (2) two tests from test I to V, he/she automatically fails the entire examination.

EXAMPLES:

Examinee A’s (Passed June 2006 NLE) grades are as follows:

Test I - 80 (valid because of no leakage)
Test II - 78 (valid because of no leakage)
Test III - 76 (valid because of excluded leakage) Remember, this is 76/80 not 76/100
Test IV - 75 (valid because of no leakage)
Test V - 75 (invalid because of leakage)
AVE - 76.8 (invalid because incomplete)

So if examinee A passed Tests I, II, IV (all without leakage) & test III (by passing said test excluded of the leakage), then the examinee “may have the option” to retake only test V or both tests III & V.

Examinee B’s (Passed June 2006 NLE) grades are as follows:

Test I - 85 (valid because of no leakage)
Test II - 81 (valid because of no leakage)
Test III - 60 (valid because of excluded leakage) Remember, this is 60/80 not 60/100
Test IV - 83 (valid because of no leakage)
Test V - 75 (invalid because of leakage)
AVE - 76.8 (invalid because incomplete)

So if examinee B passed Tests I, II, IV (all without leakage) & test III (by passing the minimum for the said test excluded of the leakage), then the examinee “may have the option” to retake only test V or both tests III & V.


Examinee C’s (Failed June 2006) grades are as follows:

Test I - 72 (valid because of no leakage)
Test II - 75 (valid because of no leakage)
Test III - 78 (valid because of excluded leakage) Remember, this is 78/80 not 60/100
Test IV - 77 (valid because of no leakage)
Test V - 59 (invalid because of leakage)
AVE - 72.2 (invalid because incomplete)

So if examinee C passed Tests I, II, IV (all without leakage) & test III (by passing the minimum for the said test excluded of the leakage), then the examinee “may have the option” to retake only test V or both tests III & V even if he failed the examination.

Examinee D’s (Failed June 2006) grades are as follows:

Test I - 50 (valid because of no leakage)
Test II - 45 (valid because of no leakage)
Test III - 80 (valid because of excluded leakage) Remember, this is 80/80 not 60/100
Test IV - 80 (valid because of no leakage)
Test V - 100 (invalid because of leakage)
AVE - 72.2 (invalid because incomplete)

So if examinee D failed Tests I & II (two sets of tests), he/she may no longer have the options to RETAKE the NLE with this June 2006 batch. However, he/she may RETAKE another NLE together with the December 2006 NLE or any NLE of her choice excluding this RETAKE for June 2006 NLE, and pay new application fees.

Examinee E’s (Passed or Failed June 2006) grades are as follows:

Test I - 80 (valid because of no leakage)
Test II - 80 (valid because of no leakage)
Test III - 59 (invalid because it lacks 20 items) Remember, this is 59/80 not 59/100
Test IV - 80(valid because of no leakage)

So if examinee E passed Tests I, II & IV (all without leakage) & failed test III (due to lack of 20 items that was excluded), then the examinee may retake test III & test V, whether he failed or passed the June 2006 NLE.

WHY have the options to retake test III?

1) Not to retake of test III:
If you passed test III out of only 80 valid questions, then you are more than qualified to have passed that test because the needed points to pass either over 80 or over 100 questions where met. Remember, you only need 60 points to pass per test. It’s up to the examinee if he feels he has enough points to pass the total average of all the tests if he only takes test V.

2) To retake of test III:
Because 20 items where leaked & where excluded/invalidated, an examinee may feel that he could get more points if ever it was computed with a full 100 item test. So if he got 70/80, he/she may feel he/she could get maybe 90/100 & push his/her average score higher.

Best Parameters for a RETAKE:

1) For those who failed on (2) two or more tests/subjects excluding test III & test V, they must not be allowed to RETAKE the June 2006 NLE.
2) For those who passed or failed the June 2006 NLE with a minimum of only (1) test/subject that failed to reach the 60% passing mark excluding test III & test V, THEY HAVE TO RETAKE TEST V & MAY HAVE THE OPTION TO RETAKE TEST III.
3) If you are to RETAKE test III, only 20 items are to be retaken.
4) Schedule of the RETAKE should be done after the December NLE, to give time for at least a brief review. (Most June examinees are working odd jobs at the moment to make ends meet)

I do not favor a retake because it is unjust to the innocent, but if the government favors the unjustly call for a RETAKE, they could at least sort out the best parameters that would be fair to all concerned. It is indeed a poor judgment call by Gloria Arroyo, fueled by the propaganda & disinformation perpetuated by Dante Ang, the UST faculty especially Luis Tadle, the Dean from the UP college of nursing, the ADCPN, the senators & congressmen & worst of all, the MEDIA. All of them had different hidden agendas but only one UNJUST solution, to sacrifice the INNOCENT.
