UST alumna Mary Kathleen Samarista led the newly registered physical therapists, garnering a score of 86.95 percent. Samarista bested Barbara Jane Auson of University of Perpetual Help-Laguna and Hyacinty Rosario Callao of Silliman University, who took the second and third places, respectively.

Meanwhile, UST’s passing rate in the occupational therapy (OT) board exams went up to 56.25 percent, with 18 out of 32 Thomasians passing the test. In 2012, 18 out of 38 Thomasian examinees made the cut, equivalent to a 47.37-percent passing rate.

The national passing rate for occupational therapists stood at 50 percent, as half of the 64 examinees nationwide passed the test. Last year, only 27 out of 72 examinees passed the test, or a national passing rate of 37.50 percent.

UST, namayagpag sa PT, guidance counselor at OT board exams

Nagtala ang Unibersidad ng 100-porsiyentong passing rate sa katatapos lamang na guidance counselor licensure exam. Pumasa ang tatlong Tomasinong kumuha ng pagsusulit, ayon sa Professional Regulation Commission (PRC).
Malaki ang itinaas ng bahagdan para sa taong ito kumpara sa 66.67 porsiyento noong nakaraang taon, kung kailan apat sa anim na Tomasinong kumuha ng pagsusulit ang pumasa.
Ang national passing rate ay pumatak sa 61.28 porsiyento kung saan 239 ang pumasa mula sa 390 na kumuha ng pagsusulit. Bahagyang tumaas ang bahagdan kumpara sa 60.14 porsiyento noong nakaraang taon.

Ikalima naman si Roel Paolo Calingasan Veras na nakakuha ng 80 porsiyentong marka.
Ayon kay Cheryl Peralta, dekano ng College of Rehabilitation Sciences (CRS), naging susi sa magandang resulta ng licensure examinations ang dedikasyon ng kanilang fakultad sa pagtuturo sa kanilang mga mag-aaral.
“Our faculty members, led by their respective department chairs, internship supervisors, and board review committees have worked very hard to prepare the students for the board exams. The need to transition to outcomes-based education, while still maintaining that our teaching strategies are sensitive to the board exams, is indeed a very big challenge, not only to the faculty but to the students,” ani Peralta.
Dagdag pa niya, hindi naging hadlang ang maraming pagbabago sa akademikong sistema tulad ng academic calendar shift, para gawing mas handa ang kanilang mag-aaral na kumuha ng pagsusulit.
“We had to start the board review program a little later this year due to the movement of the academic calendar, thus cutting the board review duration by about a month. To compensate for this, we have improved the structure of the integration courses in their final year so these continue to develop in their clinical reasoning and critical thinking while helping them prepare for the board exams earlier,” aniya.
Nanguna ang Cebu Doctors Hospital sa OT board exam sa 90.48-porsiyentong passing rate, kasunod ang University of the Philippines-Manila na nagtamo ng 80 porsiyento.
Bumaba naman ang national passing rate ng OT sa 49.79 porsiyento o 114 na pumasa mula sa 229 na kumuha ng pagsusulit, mula sa 62.94 porsiyento noong nakaraang taon. Hannah Rhocellhynnia Cruz at Roy Abrahmn D.R. Narra
