Abstract:

The study investigates the correlation between teacher education graduate’s academic performance and Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) rating. The study employs a descriptive design. Data on academic performance was retrieved from the Registrar's office while the LET ratings were obtained from the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) Cebu City office. The researcher used Mean and Percentages in describing the performance, and Pearson Product Moment Coefficient Correlation in determining the significant of the relationship between academic performance and LET rating. The study revealed that the Physical Science and Filipino Graduates’ academic performance did not correlate with their LET performance rating while English and Filipino graduates obtained significant results. Hence, the graduates’ academic performance does not indicate graduates’ success in the LET.
