SC to announce Bar exams passers Tuesday

MANILA, Philippines — The nerve-wracking wait for 5,593 law graduates who took the Bar exams in 2013 is over.

The Supreme Court will announce on Tuesday (March 18) the results of the 2013 bar exam, according to the tribunal’s public information office (PIO).

“After the official announcement by 2013 bar chair Associate Justice Arturo Brion, (the results) will be uploaded to the SC website,” the PIO tweeted.

Brion is expected to announce the top 10 passers.

The bar exams were held on four Sundays in October last year at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila.

The exams covered political law, labor law, civil law, taxation, commercial law, criminal law, remedial law and ethics.

Essay-type questions made up 80 percent of the exam, while 20 percent consisted of multiple-choice questions.
