The Supreme Court (SC) announced that the 2024 Bar Examinations results will be released on December 13.
In a statement, the SC said that the results will be displayed on LED walls in its courtyard in Ermita, Manila, and also published on its official website.
Public access to the courtyard will be available from 12:00 noon to 6:00 p.m., with regulated entry due to space limitations.
This year’s Bar Examinations were conducted on three separate dates, with 10,483 law graduates out of over 12,000 applicants taking the exams.
The examinees comprised 5,234 first-time takers, 4,060 repeaters, and 1,189 refresher examinees.
Moreover, the SC noted that female examinees outnumbered males, with a ratio of 6,108 to 4,375.
Among the 2024 Bar examinees were 155 senior citizens and 313 persons with special needs, with the youngest aged 23 and the oldest 78.
Meanwhile, the Oath-Taking and Roll-Signing Ceremonies for successful Bar examinees are scheduled for January 24, 2025.
Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo, in an earlier statement, reminded law deans to emphasize to aspiring lawyers that preparation for the Bar Examinations begins the moment a student enters law school.
