When are the June 2026 PT board exam results coming out?
The PRB Physical Therapy releases June 2026 PTLE results on June 5, 2026, two working days after the final exam on June 3. This two-working-day turnaround held for every cycle from June 2024 through December 2025 without exception. For all PRC board exam results this year, visit our PRC board exam results page.
| Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Exam dates | June 2 and 3, 2026 |
| Day 1 AM | PT Basic Sciences (8:00 AM to 12:00 PM) |
| Day 1 PM | Medical-Surgical Conditions (1:00 PM to 5:00 PM) |
| Day 2 AM | PT Application (8:00 AM to 12:00 PM) |
| Result release | June 5, 2026 (Friday) |

The PRC releases results in two waves. Wave 1 is a PDF list on prc.gov.ph showing all passers. Wave 2 is the LERIS update at online.prc.gov.ph, where individual subject ratings appear. On release day, skip LERIS entirely. Thousands of examinees flood it at once and the server crashes within minutes. Bookmark this page instead. We post the official PDF link the moment the PRC drops the results, so you get the information without fighting the server.
How is the PTLE scored?
To pass the June 2026 Physical Therapist board exam, you need two conditions met at the same time: a weighted general average (GWA) of at least 75%, and no single subject below 60%. The PTLE has no conditional status. Unlike the CPALE, which allows conditional examinees to retake only their failed subjects, the PTLE is outright pass or fail. Similarly, the ALE follows the same all-or-nothing rule. Fail either condition and you retake all five subjects in December.
| Subject | Weight |
|---|---|
| Physical Therapy Clinical Sciences | 30% |
| Basic Sciences | 25% |
| Physical Therapy Techniques | 20% |
| Electrotherapy and Therapeutic Exercises | 15% |
| Ethics, Law, and Research | 10% |
Clinical Sciences and Basic Sciences together account for 55% of your score. Strong performance in those two areas can pull a borderline GWA over 75%. However, the 60% floor applies to all five subjects, including the lighter Electrotherapy (15%) and Ethics (10%) areas that many first-timers underweight.
Case 1: Outright pass
| Subject | Weight | Score | Contribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| PT Clinical Sciences | 30% | 82% | 24.60 |
| Basic Sciences | 25% | 78% | 19.50 |
| PT Techniques | 20% | 76% | 15.20 |
| Electrotherapy | 15% | 74% | 11.10 |
| Ethics, Law, Research | 10% | 80% | 8.00 |
| GWA | 78.40% (PASS) |
Case 2: Fail (GWA miss)
| Subject | Weight | Score | Contribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| PT Clinical Sciences | 30% | 68% | 20.40 |
| Basic Sciences | 25% | 72% | 18.00 |
| PT Techniques | 20% | 70% | 14.00 |
| Electrotherapy | 15% | 69% | 10.35 |
| Ethics, Law, Research | 10% | 73% | 7.30 |
| GWA | 70.05% (FAIL) |
No subject dropped below 60%, but a weak Clinical Sciences score pulled the GWA to 70.05%. This is the most common failure pattern: decent across the board, but not strong enough in the two heaviest subjects.
Case 3: Fail (60% floor knockout)
| Subject | Weight | Score | Contribution |
|---|---|---|---|
| PT Clinical Sciences | 30% | 81% | 24.30 |
| Basic Sciences | 25% | 58% | 14.50 |
| PT Techniques | 20% | 79% | 15.80 |
| Electrotherapy | 15% | 76% | 11.40 |
| Ethics, Law, Research | 10% | 77% | 7.70 |
| GWA | 73.70% (FAIL: 60% floor) |
A Basic Sciences score of 58% triggers the floor rule automatically. Even a strong Clinical Sciences result and a near-passing GWA cannot override it. As a result, you retake the full exam in December with no carry-over.
June vs December: does the batch matter?
The June PTLE cycle is consistently smaller than December. In 2025, only 630 examinees sat the June exam versus 1,553 in December. However, a smaller batch does not mean a softer exam. The PRC does not adjust difficulty based on batch size.
| Cycle | Examinees | Passers | Pass rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| December 2025 | 1,553 | 1,198 | 77.14% |
| June 2025 | 630 | 416 | 66.03% |
| December 2024 | 1,700 | 1,206 | 70.94% |
| June 2024 | 811 | 516 | 63.63% |
December cycles have outperformed June ones across every recent cycle. December batches typically include more first-time takers from the same graduation cohort, while June batches carry a higher proportion of retakers. Based on this pattern, plan for June 2026 to land in the 63 to 70 percent range.
What my cousin’s PTLE failure taught me
My first cousin failed the June 2024 PTLE and passed on the December 2024 retake. He now practices at a private rehab clinic in Quezon City. I also spent months sitting through my dad’s PT sessions after a minor stroke in 2024, which gave me a firsthand look at what the license actually means inside a clinic. Between those two experiences, a clear pattern of first-timer mistakes emerged.
Treating it like a memorization test
My cousin drilled Anatomy, Kinesiology, and Pathology like college finals. The exam, however, does not ask what muscle originates where. It asks you to take a stroke patient with hemiplegia, state your assessment, and explain your treatment plan. Theory knowledge is necessary, but the PTLE tests clinical reasoning, not fact recall. He scored well on flashcard drills and bombed the case-based sections.
Ignoring Electrotherapy and Ethics
Electrotherapy (15%) and Ethics (10%) together make up 25% of the GWA. My cousin barely touched them because they seemed small. On exam day, one of those areas came in below the 60% floor. That single subject failed him regardless of his performance in the other four. Specifically, this is the warning that most generic PRC results pages skip entirely. Many first-timers pay for it on results day.
What actually worked on the retake
He flipped the study ratio for December. About 60 to 70 percent of prep time went to Clinical Sciences and case integration. He practiced SOAP notes and treatment plans under timed pressure each week. Furthermore, he ran 12 full timed mocks across the three months before the exam and tapered completely in the final five days. He passed with a GWA above 77%.
His advice: “The first time I studied to pass the exam. The second time I studied to think like a therapist treating a real patient in 30 minutes. That shift got me across the line.”
Career paths after passing the June 2026 PTLE
Your Physical Therapist board exam results, once confirmed, give you the legal right to practice as a Registered Physical Therapist (PTRP) in the Philippines. For more on what the PRC credential means for your career, our guide on what a PRC license is covers it clearly.
| Career track | Starting salary | 3 to 5 year ceiling |
|---|---|---|
| Government or private hospital | ₱18,000–₱25,000/month | ₱28,000–₱40,000+ |
| Private rehab clinic | ₱20,000–₱30,000/month | ₱35,000–₱50,000+ |
| Home service PT | ₱25,000–₱40,000/month | ₱50,000–₱80,000+ |
| Abroad (Middle East, US, Canada) | ₱150,000–₱300,000+ equivalent | Fastest ramp-up |
Hospital roles offer the widest case variety (stroke, ortho, pedia), which builds the clinical foundation overseas employers look for. Home service is growing fast for PTs with their own transport and a steady referral network. The abroad track requires additional licensing exams (the NPTE for the US, for example), but my cousin’s batchmates in Saudi Arabia are already earning four to five times their Philippine starting rate after one year. The career trajectory for licensed PTRPs closely mirrors what our Mechanical Engineers board exam guide describes: two to three years of local experience followed by offshore roles paying in foreign currency.
What to do after the June 5 results
If you passed
After your Physical Therapist board exam results confirm your name on the passers list, follow this sequence. First, attend the PRC oathtaking ceremony, announced a few days to two weeks after results with in-person and virtual options. Second, complete your online initial registration at online.prc.gov.ph to claim your Certificate of Registration and PRC ID. Third, apply for membership in the Philippine Physical Therapy Association (PPTA), the PRC-accredited professional organization for PTRPs. Many hospitals and clinics require an active PPTA Certificate of Good Standing for hiring and abroad applications. Prepare your documents early (oath form, Notice of Admission, passport photos, documentary stamps) so you are ready the moment registration slots open.
If you need to retake
The next PTLE is December 5 and 6, 2026, with results expected on December 9. The application window runs September 4 to November 4, 2026. That gives you roughly five months from June 5 to the December exam.
My cousin’s advice: take a complete 7 to 14 day break right after results before opening any review material. Then do an honest post-mortem on which subjects cost you points. Change your method, not just your effort level. Our piece on the teacher who tried 17 times covers the comeback mindset if you are sitting with a failed result right now.
Frequently asked questions
When will the June 2026 PT board exam results be released?
The PRB Physical Therapy releases June 2026 PTLE results on June 5, 2026, two working days after the final exam on June 3. Bookmark this page to get the official passers list and PDF link without fighting the LERIS portal.
What is the passing score for the PTLE?
Your PT board exam results will show a weighted general average (GWA) and five subject scores. You need a GWA of at least 75% and no single subject below 60%. Therefore, a strong Clinical Sciences score cannot save you if any other subject falls below the 60% floor.
Is there a conditional status in the PTLE?
No. The PTLE is outright pass or fail. Unlike the CPALE, there is no conditional provision. Fail either condition and you retake all five subjects in December 2026.
What five subjects does the PTLE cover?
The PTLE covers Physical Therapy Clinical Sciences (30%), Basic Sciences (25%), Physical Therapy Techniques (20%), Electrotherapy and Therapeutic Exercises (15%), and Ethics, Law, and Research (10%). Clinical Sciences and Basic Sciences together account for 55% of the total score.
When is the next PT board exam after June 2026?
The next PTLE is December 5 and 6, 2026, with results expected on December 9. The application period runs September 4 to November 4, 2026. Failed June examinees have roughly five months to prepare for the December retake.
What to do next
Once the PT board exam results are out on June 5, your next step depends on where you landed. Passers: attend oathtaking, register your PRC ID, and join PPTA. Retakers: audit your five subject scores, flip the study ratio toward Clinical Sciences and case integration, and plan for December with a smarter approach.
