The Professional Regulations Commission’s (PRC) website is the main source of data used for the table above.  In the last three years (2008-2010), an average of 76 schools participates in every licensure exam in Architects.  680 out of an average of 1,547 examinees pass the exam or 44% passing percentage.

PRC presents its top schools in categories.  For Architecture, categories used did vary.  For June 2008 and June 2010 exams, top schools were derived by getting those “with 50 or more examinees and at least 80% passing percentage.”  On the other hand, for June 2009 and January 2010, the categories were “with 20-50 examinees” and “with 51 or more examinees.”  To eliminate these categories and come up with an over-all top 10 in consideration of the  PRC ranking, then, the limit used for the table above is simply “with 20 or more examinees” with exception though.  Once a school has entered the top 10 in whichever exam date, the limit ends.  Take for instance, UP-Diliman.  Even if UPD had below 20 representatives for January 2009 exam, it was still considered in the ranking.  This is because in the other exams, UPD has always been in the top 10, limit observed.
