Bar, no time for doubt — SC justice

One month before the start of the bar examinations, Supreme Court (SC) Associate Justice Amy Lazaro-Javier congratulated aspiring lawyers for reaching the final stretch of their journey.

According to the Supreme Court’s schedule, the Bar Exams will be held on 7, 10 and 14 September 2025.

In her message to the examinees, Lazaro-Javier urged them to trust themselves and their preparations.

“Now is not the time for doubt. Instead, get excited. The finish line is closer than ever. You’ve got this,” said Lazaro-Javier, chair of the 2025 Bar Exams.

She thanked the examinees for showing up and reminded them that their progress is already an achievement.

“Even if you are not at 100 percent every single day, know that your effort, your discipline, and your steadfast, unyielding heart have brought you this far. That is more than enough,” she said.

Lazaro-Javier added that the Bar Exams measure more than intelligence and knowledge of the law.

She described the examinations as a test of faith, endurance, grit, and determination, expressing pride in all examinees for making it this far.
