59-year-old examinee passes the 2025 Bar Exams on 11th try
After 11 attempts, 59-year-old Eduardo Rivera Regio finally passed the 2025 Bar Exams.
Regio first took the Bar exams in 1993 and was motivated to continue by his belief that he could succeed.
He was initially prevented from taking the exams in 2005 due to the Supreme Court's 'five-strike rule,' which limited examinees to five attempts.
Regio was able to re-take the exams after the Supreme Court lifted this rule in 2014.
The 2025 Bar examinations saw 5,594 examinees pass out of 11,338, resulting in a passing rate of 48.98%.
