SC to release 2025 Bar exam results on 7 January

Some 11,425 examinees are awaiting the Supreme Court’s announcement of the results of the 2025 Bar Examinations, scheduled for 7 January 2026.

The high court said the results will be announced at 1:00 p.m. from the courtyard of the Supreme Court main building in Manila.

Associate Justice Amy C. Lazaro-Javier, chairperson of the 2025 Bar Examinations, will lead the announcement alongside Chief Justice Alexander Gesmundo and other members of the court.

The 2025 Bar Examinations, which concluded on 14 September, saw 11,425 examinees complete the three-day digital tests — the largest number of finishers in the country’s Bar examination history.

The turnout followed a record 13,193 admitted applicants and 11,437 actual takers on the first day.

The exams were conducted across 14 local testing centers nationwide as part of the judiciary’s continuing efforts to modernize the examination process.

The venue will open to the public at 10:00 a.m. ahead of the announcement, which will also be livestreamed on the court’s official social media platforms.

A press conference with the justices is expected to follow the announcement at the Dignitaries’ Lounge.

Oath-taking and the formal signing of the Roll of Attorneys for successful examinees are tentatively scheduled for February 2026.
