Individuals vary in the amount of sleep they needed. according to Tyrer`s How to Sleep Better, the cause of this is not known. Memory processes is impaired when there is sleep debt, short-term or immediate memory is strongly affected. This made it hard for us to keep details in our mind. If we were dealing with the task that had many parts that must be considered in relationship to each other, impaired short-term memory would make this difficult. This could have drastic effects on task. The objective of our study was to determine the relationship between sleep and performance in Comprehensive Examination of MICO 2009 - RICO 2009 in Hematology and Serology/Immunology specifically this study would determine the relationship between the number of sleeping hours and performance in comprehensive examinations and to determine relationship between the degree of satisfaction of sleep and performance in comprehensive examination. Statistical treatment was descriptive statistics and further analyzed with Fisher Exact and Correlation Coefficient test. Based on the results, we concluded that there was no significant relationship between sleep and performance in Comprehensive Examination of MICO 09-RICO 09 in Hematology and Serology/Immunology. However, it was noted that for every increase of one hour sleep, there would be a corresponding 0.26-030 increase in grade in Comprehensive Examination. Most likely, this could be attributed to the effective teaching methods of the faculty that were inculcated into the minds of the students. Hence, the researchers proposed for the following study, if possible, to consider the other Medical Technology professional subjects in the assessment, to control the difficulty index and to increase the sample size ER -
