SU gets 100% passing rate in Physician Licensure Exam

Silliman University Medical School (SUMS) got 100 percent passing rate in the September Physician Licensure Examination, with all 42 successful examinees.

It was supposed to be the eighth consecutive 100 percent for SU, except for  last year when  Silliman only got 87 percent passing rate.

Dean Walden Ursos expressed his happiness over this year’s perfect results and said, “Of course, God answered our prayers.”

The national passing rate is 82.19%

SUMS will hold a fellowship breakfast “Pakig-Istorya” and thanksgiving devotion for the newly registered physicians, parents, faculty, and staff on Oct. 6.
