Easy Lang!

The Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) announces that 1,631 out of 4,513 passed the Electronics and Communications Engineer Licensure Examination given by the Board of Electronics and Communications Engineering in the cities of Manila, Baguio, Cagayan De Oro, Cebu and Iloilo this November 2006.

The result of the recent ECE board examination was released last Wednesday and based from the outcome, it seems that the ECE license even became more elusive this year. The passing rate during our time was 43.52%, that’s 1,067 out of 2,452. The recently concluded exam was only at 36.14%.

Mathematically speaking, we can expect at most 1,385 persons in total shock as early as Tuesday evening, excluding family and friends. However, don’t despair non-board passers! I had my license for four years now and I haven’t really made use of it! Guess what? I just learned this Wednesday that International Exchange Bank doesn’t even honor a PRC ID as a valid one because it is prone to tampering!

Seriously, if you failed the exam, it’s not the end of the world. You will still be able to find a job. If you want it to feel a sense of fulfillment or because you plan to venture in the communications industry, you could always do a re-take. The license is something that is good to have, but not having it is not a big lost either. Life doesn’t end in failing, in fact it is just starting for you. Enjoy life. You will only experience it once.
