MANILA, Philippines — Examinees who missed the Career Service Examination, Pen and Paper Test (CSE-PPT) in August 2018 due to bad weather may take the exam in March this year, the Civil Service Commission (CSC) said on Thursday.
The CSC said that examinees from Regions I, III, IV (except Morong, Rizal,) and Cordillera Administrative Region (CAR) who were not able to take the exam on August 12, 2018, will be allowed to take the March 17, 2019, CSE-PPT free of charge, upon request.
It said that its consideration for the examinees were in light of the torrential rain brought by the southwest monsoon, or “Habagat,” on August 12, and might have caused non-attendance for some examinees.
The CSC noted that affected examinees will only be given one chance to take the examination.
The examinees are required to register at the nearest CSC Regional Office (RO)/Field Office (FO) until January 16, 2019, and submit the following documents:
Duly accomplished Application Form (CS Form No. 100, Revised September 2016)
Four pieces of passport sized I.D. pictures, with handwritten and handheld name tag and taken within three months prior to filing of application
Original and photocopy of any valid and existing I.D. cards
Original and photocopy of Application Receipt and/or CSC Official Receipt for the August 12, 2018 CSE-PPT (if available)
The CSC clarified that affected examinees will only be accommodated in the same level of examination supposed to be taken in the August 12, 2018, CSE-PPT.
Furthermore, examinees who were absent in the August CSE-PPT but took and failed the same level of examination in the October 14, 2018, Special CSE-PPT for government agencies, will also be considered and accommodated in the March 17, 2019 CSE-PPT.
Those who would not be able to take the CSE-PPT in March 17, 2019, will have their examination fee and slot forfeited, the CSC said.
Any request for postponement or another rescheduling would not be allowed, it added. /cbb
