It was almost 2 months or 60 days to be exact of stressful and anxiety-provoking experiences before the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) finally decided to release the much awaited exam result of this land – The November 29 and 30, 2009 Nurses Licensure Examination result. About 37,527 board takers or 39.7% survived the nerve-wrecking NLE. I jolted in surprise & couldn’t stop my tears running on my cheeks as i saw my name in the list of NLE passers on the Inquirer website last January 30, 2010. I couldn’t believed myself I belong to these survivors and now here i am – a full-pledge Philippine Registered Nurse. Lucky Me! hehehe!

This morning, about 1,000 new nurses from Davao City and nearby regions gathered at the CAP auditorium for an oathtaking ceremony. Due to a large number of oathtakers, PRC decided to split the populations into morning and afternoon sessions. Parents & spectators were not allowed to enter the hall in this solemn ceremony, of course PRC would not want all of us to fall down during the event due to our huge numbers.

The oathtaking was attended by Hon. Marco Antonio Sto. Tomas, one of the member of the Board of Nursing.
