Students bent on becoming medical doctors would be better off studying in medical schools that have a consistent 100 percent passing rate in the Physician Licensure Examinations.
According to Pasig City Representative Roman Romulo, chairman of the House Committee on Higher and Technical Education, four universities currently have a 100 percent passing rate in the board examinations.
These are the following:
University of the Philippines in Manila
Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila
Ateneo de Manila University
Cebu Institute of Medicine.
This finding was based on the last two Physician Licensure Examinations, which was administered by the Professional Regulation Commission.
Getting into these choice universities is thus very important for aspiring doctors. Thus, reviewing for the National Medical Admission Test (NMAT) should be their top priority. This test is a nationwide examination required for admission into medical schools.

For aspiring doctors, taking the NMAT is the first step towards a career in the medical profession. Moreover, getting into the right school is certainly a crucial step towards the right direction.
