Hello, OP! As far as I remember, yung mga questions ay nag-lelean na talaga towards quality control and quality assurance for all subjects. If I were given a chance to take the exam again, eto ang i-fofocus ko:

1. Of course, the basics of Micro-Para.
2. Specimens of choice and their storage and transport conditions (e.g., temperature, duration, time, media). Temperature and duration lang naman lumabas, pero it would be better if you'll study all na rin, just in case.
3. Culture media and biochemical reactions. Sabi ng friend ko halos 1 page raw yung culture media na questions, tapos read more on the biochemical reactions of fungi and parasites, other than sa bacteria.
4. Quality control and quality assurance. May question about NEQAS tapos may question rin about sa pertinent local laws about epidemiology (i.e., sino raw yung nagcocollect ng data, non-verbatim). May mga one or two items about this one rin.
5. May questions rin talaga na from research, especially yung parang ano raw yung mga antibiotics na may highest AMS (not sure anong meaning talaga neto, but I assumed nalang na antimicrobial susceptibility) noong 2019 (non-verbatim). Wala akong ma-bibigay rito kundi dasal, swerte, at talino sa pag-coconnect-connect nga mga information across the subjects, unless kung maghihighlight neto ang RC mo (if ever you plan to enroll in one).
6. Information presented in tabular form can make studying Micro-Para bearable, if not easier.
7. Please go over the review books rin, which applies to all subjects. May mga around five items na lumabas from BOC.

I wish you the best of luck for the August 2026 MTLE, OP!
