LEPT Passing Score, Weights & Pass Rates
On this page
The legal passing standard
R.A. 7836 sets a general average of at least 75%, with no rating below 50% in any subject.
Both conditions matter. A general average above 75% does not satisfy the standard when one subject rating is below 50%.
Current subject weights
The PRC examination program assigns different weights to the standard Elementary and Secondary levels. These are the weights in the 2026 program; check the program for your exact exam date and category.
Elementary level
- General Education
- 40%
- Professional Education
- 60%
Secondary level
- General Education
- 20%
- Professional Education
- 40%
- Specialization
- 40%
The PRC program also lists an Elementary-with-Specialization category. Use that program—not the standard Elementary card above—if it matches your Notice of Admission.
Pass rate and rating are different
Your rating
Your PRC rating is the result used to determine whether you met the passing standard for the subjects in your examination.
The published pass rate
A pass rate is the share of examinees who passed a particular administration. It describes that group after results are released; it is not the score an individual needs to obtain.
One official example: March 2026
PRC reported these results for the March 15, 2026 LEPT. They are a snapshot of that examination, not a prediction for the next one.
Elementary
18,376 passed out of 32,796 examinees
Secondary
45,001 passed out of 61,561 examinees
Use practice scores as diagnostics
A reviewer or mock-exam percentage is not an official PRC rating. Use it to locate weak subjects, review incorrect answers, and track whether your accuracy is improving under exam-like timing.
Do not infer your chance of passing from one historical pass rate or one practice score. Confirm the actual result only through PRC’s official results and verification channels.
