"The journey of every BS Agriculture students wouldn't end after they graduate. In fact, it's just the beginning of facing the real world."

-imanagrcltrst, 2022.

We, BS Agriculture students, don't just aim to finish our degree course. It's not purely about wearing that "much awaited black toga & cap with yellow tassel".

More so, to aim for bigger achievements like ...

" ... to take and passed the Licensure Examination for Agriculturists." 🤎

In order to proclaim ourselves as a Registered Agriculturists and have that "L. Agr." after our names? We must ace the board examination, regardless of how many take/s it will be.

Here's a fast trivia about the board exam for Agriculturists:

" ... Agriculturist Licensure Examination (ALE) or Licensure Examination for Agriculturists (LEA) were taken every November for 3-days. In 2019, it ranked as the third most difficult board examination in the Philippines."

This year, ALE happens in November 22-24 in different testing centers in the Philippines.

Here in Luzon, only a few Testing Centers offers ALE such as: "NCR (Manila), Baguio, Pampanga and Tuguegarao."

And, finally! The much awaited day of ALE takers has arrived. After almost 2-weeks, the results are all out.

Every takers surely utters & keeps on muttering a prayer before opening the file and while scrolling on the list. Their prayer? None other than to see their names in the list.

According to Professional Regulation Commission (PRC), 4035 out of more than eleven thousand takers had passed the board exam.

Me to those who are adding "lang" to Agriculture students and graduates:

"Does the number of passers enough to prove that studying BS Agriculture isn't like what you think off?"

Additionally, there are a total of 29 Topnotchers in ALE 2022 whereas the two Top 1 are from University of the Philippines -Los Baños and Visayas State University. Like the previous years, UP-LB still holds the title as a "Top Performing School" for having such a high numbers of passers. This year, 100.00% of their takers had passed the Licensure Examination.

And, there's more. The Top 2 and Top 9 are from our university. Yey! Last ALE 2019, the one and only Top 1 is from CLSU. Such a huge achievement it is!

Overall, 67.87% of the total numbers of takers from our university had passed the ALE 2022. Wherein 71.19% are first takers and 54.55% are repeaters (i.e. second take). Those first takers are certainly the "one-time takers." How amazing!

To top it all, let me congratulate every 2022 Agriculturists through this blog.

"Congratulations and here's a clap for you, Licensed Agriculturists." 🤎

I have a lot of friends (Ate and Kuya) who are now a Licensed Agriculturists. They're efforts and everything had finally paid off, so happy for them.

One of them is Ate Mary, a Crop Science major who specializes in Agronomy. She graduated last July 2022 and immediately take the boards. Well, that's my plan too. Which is to take ALE within the same year as I graduated. *crossed fingers*

I saw her Facebook story and I instantly typed a congratulatory message for her:

And, here's her reply. Imagine how motivating it is to receive this kind of message? It feels so surreal.

"Ikaw na susunod!" idiomatically means I will be included in the next batch of ALE Passers, specifically to be a Licensed Agriculturist."

Then, I jokingly said that I will borrow her reviewers and she replied: "Sure! Inform me when you're about to take the exam." I really appreciate how supportive you are (as always), Ate Mary!

CLOSING THOUGHTS

Next year, this will be one of my manifestations:

"Lisensya, cutie!" ♡♡

But for now, I will focus my whole attention in my main goal which is to:

"Finish my thesis and graduate, on-time!" 🎯
