Letran Pioneer Electrical Engineerin­g batch gets 100% board rating

-

COLEGIO de San Juan de Letran’s (EE) students passed the Septem Engineer Licensure examinatio­ns.

James Van Chan, Blessie Rose Bondoc, Myra Lalaquil, and Ma. Abigail Jordan achieved a 100% passing rate for Letran in the exams. The national passing rate is at 62.94%.

“We are very proud and very happy because we’re the pioneer batch [of Electrical Engineerin­g] and we were able to carry the name of Letran,” said Jordan.

Engineered to overcome

their Engineerin­g degree had been, many times, tough for Jordan and Co. What started as a batch of twelve in 2012 trickled down to just four and there were times that they wanted to shift also, admitted Jordan.

“We had [ that] feeling,” she said. “But we really liked what we were doing; we loved it so much that we happily endured the challenges.”

And it all paid off. Bondoc became a Registered Master Elec- trician in her fourth year, Chan graduated Magna Cum Laude in - gineering courses at her alma mater, and now, the four EE alumni are legitimate Electrical Engineers.

Jordan bared that prayers played a big part in their achievemen­t, especially after having their own personal ‘Visita Iglesia’ prior to the examinatio­ns.

“It is a joy that, in our own way, we were able to promote the Engineerin­g program of Letran,” she said.
