This study aimed to determine factors that are significant determinants of Board Examination scores in Accountancy, Chemistry, Education, Nursing, and Social Work. Specifically, the study sought to describe the performance of PLM in the above board examination from 2001 to 2008 and compare it with the performance of three other universities in Manila and the national passing percentage. It also aimed to develop a statistical model for board examination scores in each of the above fields based on selected variables. Respondents of the study were the 2008 graduates of PLM who took the board examination in 2008. The researcher applied record linkage using the exact matching procedure to integrate database of PLM licensure examination performance from the Professional Regulations Commission, 2004 database of PLM Admission Test results and databased of official student records from the Office of the University Registrar. Findings of the study revealed that the performance of PLM in the Chemist Licensure Examination does not differ significantly with selected universities in Manila, the performance of PLM in the CPA Licensure Examination is better than the national average and selected universities in Manila, the performance of PLM in the Nurse Licensure Examination is better than the performance of selected universities in Manila, the performance of PLM in the Social Worker Licensure Examination is better than the performance of selected universities in Manila. Findings also showed that the examinees of NLE and CPALE generally have higher scores in the PLM Admission Test than examinees of CLE, LET and SWLE. Also licensure examination passers were found to have higher grades in college than the non-passers. The study showed that there is a significant relationship between performance in Licensure Examination subtests and corresponding grades in college. The variable was found to be significantly related to Board Examination scores in the selected courses. Based on the findings, the researcher recommended that scores in the PLMAT subtests be considered as part of the admission criteria for certain courses. For the retention policy, she recommended that for courses that require board examination, average grade requirement be added for the board examination subjects in order to ensure better performance in board examinations. Learning from the best practices of courses that are performing well in board examinations, a comprehensive/battery test should be administered to students of courses that require board examinations. Annual evaluation of student performance should be conducted among students of courses with board examination. Intervention or remediation should be provided for students who will be found to perform below standard. In-house review should be provided for graduating students to prepare them for the board examination. Future researches should consider replicating the present study in other board examination courses.
