Is there such a thing as the best LET Review Center?
In choosing a LET Review center, one must not be swayed with advertisements or good branding alone. Instead of dwelling on the number of FB likes or viral posts, it is better to check the quality of a review center with the following:
- Number of topnotchers
- Passing rate of the attendees
- Quality and quantity of the materials
- Background and achievement of the instructors
- Accessibility of the location and schedule
- Payment options (full payment, installment, reservation fee)
- Other activities such as mock test, final coaching and online review
- Recommendations of your friends, instructors, teachers, and other trusted references
Personally, I believe that the factors stated above must not compromise any of my daily activities such as work, convenience, personal budget, and time for self-review. For instance, if you live in Baguio, it might be unwise to travel to Manila every weekend just to attend the review sessions. When in fact, there are many review centers that might offer the same quality with the ones found in Metro Manila.
While writing this post, I found out that a review center in Mindanao produced the highest number of topnotchers from the recent LET examination. (Wow!)
Don’t hesitate to conduct a research about your target center, and read the details below. After all, good reading skill is necessary for LET takers.

To future professional teachers,
This post does not claim that enrolling in a review center is the best option to obtain a license. In fact, some topnotchers described how they did self-review. But if working with a group works better for you, do not hesitate to go back to the details of this post.
