MANILA, Philippines – The Supreme Court released the performance of law schools with the percentage of passers or passing rate for the 2020-2021 bar exam.
Associate Justice Marvic Leonen, 2020/2021 Bar chairperson, confirmed this plan last year saying "everyone is now a bar bet."
In the past, only the list of successful bar passers and topnotchers were released by the high court.
In addition, instead of announcing bar topnotchers, the Supreme Court will recognize examinees who recorded “exemplary performance” in the licensure test.
