The study made used of both qualitative and quantitative research. Grades of the respondents was requested to the university registrar and a standardized comprehensive examination was given to the respondents to validate their readiness in taking the board examination. A face-to-face interview was also conducted to know the problems they have encountered in taking the course and in taking the comprehensive examination. Weighted mean was computed and determine the readiness of the respondents using the Pearson R correlation. As revealed by the findings, both general weighted average and the result of the comprehensive examination registered a very weak linear correlation. In order to respond to the observations cited by the respondents the researcher suggested to provide an in-house review before taking the board examination and a strict retention policy among education students.
