One of the most in demand professions in the Philippines is Teacher Education. However, becoming a professional teacher takes a lot of efforts to pass the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET). This study assessed the readiness of Education students in taking up Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) at EAC-Cavite. This study was a pretest-posttest design utilizing the researcher’s self-made questionnaires to assess the readiness of the participants in taking the Licensure Examination for Teachers. Paired t-test was used to assess the participants’ readiness in taking up LET at the beginning and at the end of the study. Results indicated that the posttest mean (µ = 53.042) is higher than the pretest mean (µ = 51.153) which means that the review program is somehow successful at the end of the study. Significant difference (p<0.05 was observed with the p-value of 0.027 between the mean scores of pretest (µ = 51.53) and posttest (µ = 53.042).  Based on the result, the participants are ready to take the LET. The study recommends to pursue the mentoring and coaching program for the next batches of 4th year students; however, there is a need to modify some procedures and strategies in the program for further improvement and to meet the specific needs of the reviewees.
