The St. Paul University Philippines โ School of Medicine (SPUP-SOM) proudly celebrates a historic milestone as it earns the distinction of being the Top 4 Performing Medical School in the October 2025 Physician Licensure Examination (PLE) under the category of schools with 50โ90 examinees and at least 80% passing rateโthe results of which were officially released at 10:20 PM.
With 54 examinees and an exceptional 98.18% passing rate, far exceeding the benchmark of excellence, SPUP-SOM once again reaffirms its unwavering commitment to academic distinction, integrity, and compassionate service.
This remarkable triumph stands as a glorious testament to the dedication, perseverance, and faith-driven pursuit of excellence embodied by Batch Bellatorumโthe newest cohort of Paulinian physicians who now join the noble ranks of medical professionals healing with compassion and serving with purpose.
The entire Paulinian community rejoices with profound pride and thanksgiving for this extraordinary achievement that brings honor not only to the institution but also to the enduring legacy of St. Paul University Philippines as a cradle of excellence and virtue.
โWe were the batch during the pandemic. The batch before us told us to keep fighting since we were already there. We were the ones suddenly sent out right after the lockdown was liftedโimmediately thrown into face-to-face internship and clerkship without any decury. Dr. L reminded us that aside from our books, we should always carry with us the values we learned, especially integrity, as true Paulinians. Board preparation was tough. We had online review classes where you couldnโt really talk to anyone; it felt like everything was up to you alone. Still, Iโm happy and proud to be a Paulinian doctor. Iโm grateful for the experience of entering the hospital and doing clerkship because the school, under the guidance of our Dean, truly prepared usโnot just academically, but with integrity. In the end, your only real opponent is yourself. Thank you, Batch Bellatorum, for making history as part of a top-performing school. To God be all the glory.โ โ Dr. Donesthel Pattaguan, RPh, Top 1, Batch Bellatorum
