27 Agosto 2013, 11:23 p.m. -  NANATILING pangalawa ang UST sa listahan ng top-performing schools sa katatapos na physician licensure exams.

Nagtala ng 99.53-porsiyentong passing rate ang Unibersidad, kung saan 427 sa 429 na kumuha ng pagsusulit ang pumasa, batay sa resultang inilabas ng Professional Regulation Commission.

Mas mataas ito kumpara sa 98.71-porsiyentong passing rate (382 nakapasa sa 387 na kumuha ng pagsusulit) noong nakaraang taon.

THE UNIVERSITY dominated this year’s “off-season” licensure exams for physicians, physical therapists, and architects, yielding two Thomasian topnotchers.

Chicco Xerxes Pangan led this year’s newly registered physicians after getting a score of 86.33 percent.

Twenty-one out of 23 Thomasians made the cut, equivalent to a 91.30-percent passing rate. For the past two years, UST has maintained a 100-percent passing rate in the medicine board exams.

“We’re happy that UST maintained its standing as one of the best schools in the country,” said Faculty of Medicine and Surgery Dean Graciela Gonzaga.

March 2, 12:30 a.m. - THE UNIVERSITY maintained a 100-percent passing rate in the recent licensure exams for physicians, but no Thomasian entered the Top 10 list of topnotchers.

All 24 Thomasian examinees passed this year’s “off-season” physician board exams. Last year, UST also posted a perfect score, with 26 Thomasians making the cut.

Last year, Thomasian Censon Lemuel Cabanas placed sixth with an average score of 84.92. In 2010, UST's Charlene Rose Haw also got the sixth place.

No school met the requirement set by the Professional Regulation Commission to be proclaimed as a top-performing school -- at least 80 percent passing rate with a minimum of 50 examinees.

Agosto 18, 7:21 a.m. - BUMABA sa ikalawang puwesto ang UST sa listahan ng top-performing schools sa katatapos na Physician Licensure Examination ngayong buwan, ngunit ito naman ang nagtala ng pinakamaraming bilang ng mga bagong doctor mula sa isang unibersidad.

Nagtala ng 99.73 passing rate ang Unibersidad matapos pumasa ang 371 Tomasino na kumuha ng exam. Isa lang mula sa UST ang hindi pumasa.

Samantala, tatlong Tomasino ang nakapasok sa top 10—mas kaunti kumpara sa bilang noong nakaraang taon.

UST WAS named the second top performing school in the Physician licensure exams after gaining a 94 percent passing rate last January, unchanged from the same period last year.
