International Journal of Research and Innovation in Social Science, 2024, vol. 8, issue 2, 572-591 Abstract: This research investigates the preparedness of Bachelor of Secondary Education (BSED) graduating students for the Licensure Examination for Professional Teachers (LEPT). Employing a descriptive causal-comparative research design, the study aims to delineate the characteristics of respondents, their major focus areas, and their readiness for the LEPT, exploring whether these characteristics contribute to observed differences in readiness. The study focuses on fifty purposively identified BSED graduating students at Notre Dame of Midsayap College during the second semester of the Academic Year 2022-2023, with a predominant representation of females and a majority majoring in mathematics. Findings underscore the overall readiness of respondents for the LEPT, particularly in terms of review materials encompassing general and professional education, as well as fields of specialization. Noteworthy variations were observed, with ample review materials available for certain subjects, such as “Understanding the Self†and “Readings in Philippine History,†contrasting with limited materials for others, including “Ethics†and “Arts Appreciation.†Analysis also reveals disparities in the availability of review materials for specific components like “Field Study and Teaching Internship†and “Action Research,†with varying degrees of coverage on concepts and emerging issues in their respective fields of specialization. In assessing knowledge levels, respondents demonstrated a commendable understanding of key subjects such as “The Life and Works of Rizal†and “Readings in Philippine History,†along with a robust grasp of “Field Study and Teaching Internship†concepts and practices within their chosen specializations. Concerning study habits, respondents exhibited readiness, coupled with a consistent inclination to seek Divine guidance, yet with room for improvement in allocating study time across subjects. Attitude-wise, the majority expressed a strong determination to succeed in the exam, albeit with varied responses regarding remaining calm in challenging situations. Statistical analysis revealed that females exhibited higher readiness levels for the LEPT compared to males, constituting a significant difference. While science majors demonstrated greater readiness, the disparity was not statistically significant compared to other majors.
