PRC Room Assignments (Social Worker Exam – Aug 2019)

If you see a “Now Available!” note beside the exam venue, it means the PRC already released the list for that province or city and you may now view the room assignment. If it is not yet available, the PRC is still finalizing the school and classroom details. We will update this post once the official Room Assignments are released.

Here are additional useful tips we suggest you follow before the exam.

1. You’ll notice that even in just one school, several buildings and classrooms will be used as testing centers. To make sure that you proceed to the correct location, write down and take note of the exact Building, Classroom, and Seat Number assigned to you.

2. Before the day of the board exam, find out the address of the school or venue where you’ll be taking the exam. Research the actual location using Google Maps or a guide map to determine how to get there.

3. Better yet, try visiting the venue a few days before the board exam! Doing so will help you discover the best transportation or routes to take. If you simulate going to the venue beforehand, you’ll also have an idea how long it will take you to reach the exam center from your place. This allows you to change your transportation plans, if needed.

4. On the day of the exam, don’t be late! According to the PRC, examinees who will be late will NOT BE ALLOWED to take the board exam. We suggest you arrive at the exam venue at least one (1) hour before the start of the exam. This gives you enough time to locate the building, classroom, and seat number assigned to you.

What happens if you did not show up or weren’t able to take the boards? The answer is in this article: I registered but I did not take the board exam.

Tips to Pass the Social Worker Exam

Do you want some tips to help you pass the Social Worker exam?

Without a doubt, passing the Social Worker Licensure Exam requires tons of preparation, hard work, persistence, and determination. You will surely do your part. You will study long hours, read a lot of books, and answer hundreds of pages of reviewers.

But do you want to hear useful tips, this time straight from those who already passed the Social Worker boards? Here’s our collection of the best insights and tips from Social Worker passers and topnotchers themselves!

Check out and adopt the following tips which we compiled from Bernadette Mapue on Facebook.

Tip #1: Set your mind to the goal and focus.

The key to motivation is looking at the prize or what you want to achieve. For this instance, passing the Social Work Board Exam. I was already working when I took the Social Work Board Exam and Bar Exam. I then filed for leave to be able to focus on these exams. This may be difficult but you just need to budget smart and stay focused.

Tip #2: Plan for your goal and execute your plan.

Check how many days left before the Board Exam, how many hours per day you can study, how many pages of materials you need to cover. I personally can cover only 12-15 pages per hour depending on the topic but pages can go up as you gain your study momentum. Set a daily routine. Stick to this pattern until you reach the habitualization phase. As they say, starting is hard but the rest is easy.

Tip #3: Study hard and prioritize the subject matter.

Check the latest syllabus. Plan your review schedule based on the examination scope and percent allocation for topics. Devote more time in reviewing subjects with the highest point percentage.

Tip #4: Take down notes.

SULAT!!! is the famous aggressive utter of Atty. Kit Villasis every time there are important notes in his lecture. 

Social Worker Board Exam Coverage 2019

The general topics included in the Social Worker Licensure Exam are the following.

Prayer for Social Worker Board Exam Takers

“Almighty Father,

Guide me and be with me as I take this exam

Inspire me to be calm, confident, and clever.

Help me concentrate and clear my mind

Remove my anxiety and relieve me of stress.

Grant me the wisdom to remember what I studied

And discernment to know the answers that are right.

Provide me strength to pass this challenge

Help me conquer this exam.

I now lay down before you my nerves and fears

Please endow me your peace and warm my heart.

I pray for my success in this exam

All for the glory of God.

Amen.”
