A total of 10,770 Nursing graduates took the exam, but only 64.39 percent passed.

"Indi gid kamo magsugot nga magwa kamo sa classroom n'yo nga indi n'yo maintindihan ang lesson sang mga CI [clinical instructor] n'yo kag ang tanan-tanan nga lesson from first year asta sa fourth year indi gid paglipatan kag always mamati sa lecture sang CI and always man mangamuyo," Villanueva said in an interview with GMA Super Radyo Iloilo. 

Villanueva hails from Davao del Norte, but took up Nursing in Calamba Doctors College in the Province of Laguna where a sibling helped send her to school. 

She transferred in Iloilo City and finished Nursing at the Iloilo Doctors College.
