Re: latest news- retake!

He said the labor department will soon announce when the exams are to be held. The PRC and the labor department will also decide whether all those who took the affected exams will be asked to undergo the retakes, Ermita added.

GMA orders new exams for nurses in some places

PRESIDENT Gloria Macapagal Arroyo yesterday ordered the Professional Regulation Commission to administer new licensing exams to nurses in the areas where tests questions had been leaked as the best way to repair the damage caused by the cheating.

But Executive Secretary Eduardo Ermita said the new exam would only be administered to examinees in the review centers or areas where the leaks had been established.

. . .

Labor Secretary Arturo Brion will meet shortly with PRC officials to determine which examinees would be required to retake the test.

Ermita said Brion and PRC officials would also decide whether the new test applied only to subjects where the questions had been leaked.

another can of worms...how will they determine who got the leakage? subpeona the list of enrollees at the review centers? what about the people not on the list who got copies from friends who enrolled in review centers?


why not just a retake for everybody, as CGFNS suggested?

Re: latest news- retake!

I hope this is good news because reading the news makes me wonder how are they going to do it and when they are still thinking who are going to take the exams, etc.

Instead of saying that everybody will take the exam they are telling now they are still thinking who will take the exams. Nobody knows who benefited from the leakage except those cheaters.

To be fair and square, have everybody take the retake. For those who passed through hard study will surely pass on the retake. For those who cheat, well, you better study now.

This is my opinion.

Re: latest news- retake!

“As to whether it will be a retake of everything or only the test where there was leakage, or whether it will be only for those who may have taken advantage of the review centers where they had registered, all these details will be discussed by Brion and the PRC,” Ermita told reporters at his weekly briefing in Malacañang.
