11,437 examinees participate in historic Bar exams

Thousands of supporters gathered outside the University of Santo Tomas (UST) on Sunday to celebrate the final day of the 2025 Bar Examinations.

UST served as the national headquarters for the exams, which concluded after sessions on September 7, 10, and 14.

This year's bar exams saw a historic turnout with 11,437 examinees participating out of 13,193 applicants, the highest in the history of the Philippine Bar.

Supreme Court Associate Justice Amy Lazaro-Javier reminded examinees that upholding integrity is the real test beyond passing the exams.

The nation now awaits the release of the results to identify the newest members of the Philippine bar.
