In this paper, the proponents assessed the Physics qualifying examination in Lyceum of the Philippines University-Laguna (LPU-L) for incoming third year Electrical and Electronics Engineering students for A.Y. 2013-2014 using Statistical Item and Option Analysis. Using the descriptive method and stratified random sampling, the researchers evaluated 35 test questions from Physics subject. There were 77 incoming third year respondents (28 EE and 49 ECE). The percentage composition of items in terms of difficulty level justified that the test questions were good. However, when the actual percentage composition was compared with the desired distribution of difficulty levels in a test, it was found out that the distribution of test questions for “Moderately Difficult” and “Difficult” categories were valid. It was determined that there were a total of 8 (22.86%) test questions that should be revised/rejected and there were a total of 27 (77.14%) test questions that must be retained, since it passed the difficulty and discrimination index measures.
