MANILA, Philippines -- At least 43 percent of the 67,000 examinees who took the nursing board in December 2007 have passed, Leonor Rosero-Tripon, chairman of the Professional Regulation Commission told INQUIRER.net Thursday.

Tripon said the 43.42 percent passing mark was “within the usual range.”

She said among the nursing graduates who took the exam were those who were required by the Court of Appeals and the United States' Commission on Graduates of Foreign Nursing Schools after the June 2006 leakage of some test questions.

The controversial exam resulted in new procedures for testing and checking of tests.

A radio report said graduates from the St. Louie University, Xavier University, Siliman University, Trinity, Mindanao State University, and Palawan State University were among the top 10.
