  11. Hope that the PRC will not rush the board exam since we are still in a battle with the pandemic. Please make sure that it is safe before giving out exams. Examinees from provinces will go to Manila which is a high risk for the influx of covid cases. I know academic matters are your priority but please do weigh in if it's really worth it to give out the exams this year. If this exams push through then let us just hope for the best.
