The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) Board of Professional Teachers announced yesterday, May 12, 2026 the official results of the March 15, 2026 Licensure Exam for Professional Teachers (LEPT), with 14 out of 18 examinees from Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Pasig (PLP) successfully passing the exam.

PLP likewise recorded a high overall performance for the national passing rate for Secondary Education, which stood at 73.10 percent.

Kristine Evangelio Sancho, a graduate of the Bachelor of Secondary Education Major in English from Batch 2024โ€“2026, shared that the moment felt surreal, especially since she was not able to take the LET alongside her batchmates.

โ€œGrabe yung iyak ko when I saw the screenshot and found out that my name was on the list of passersโ€ฆ It was such an emotional moment for me, especially because I was not able to take the exam with my batchmates before due to problems with my documents, so after months of waiting, finally seeing my name there felt unreal,โ€ Sancho said.

When asked what she could say to future LEPT takers, Sancho encouraged perseverance and resilience despite uncertainty.

โ€œMga kapwa ko guro, ALWAYS SHOW UP… Do it scared, do it uncertain, but never stop trying. I learned that success is not about feeling ready all the time. Sometimes, it is simply about continuing even when things get difficult. Passing the LET taught me that ๐๐ž๐ฅ๐š๐ฒ๐ฌ ๐๐จ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ฆ๐ž๐š๐ง ๐Ÿ๐š๐ข๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ž. ๐‹๐ข๐Ÿ๐ž ๐ฆ๐š๐ฒ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐š๐ฅ๐ฐ๐š๐ฒ๐ฌ ๐ก๐š๐ฉ๐ฉ๐ž๐ง ๐š๐œ๐œ๐จ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐  ๐ญ๐จ ๐จ๐ฎ๐ซ ๐ญ๐ข๐ฆ๐ž๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ž, ๐›๐ฎ๐ญ ๐ญ๐ก๐š๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ž๐ฌ ๐ง๐จ๐ญ ๐ฆ๐ž๐š๐ง ๐ฐ๐ž ๐š๐ซ๐ž ๐ฅ๐ž๐Ÿ๐ญ ๐›๐ž๐ก๐ข๐ง๐.
