“JOMEL GARCIA LAPIDES has this habit of TOPPING THE BOARDS. 2011 NLE TOP 1. Now, 2020 PLE TOP 1!!! What’s next???” praised Vernal Batocael Orcullo.
There were also a lot of netizens who are saying that it would be great if Lapides will join the government as the Secretary of the Department of Health (DOH), though others are pointing out that he’s probably going to serve the people as a doctor to directly save their lives.
Other netizens joked that Lapides should also try becoming a lawyer because he might also become Top #1 in the Bar Exams.
