The examinable subjects are: Political Law and Public International Law 15% , Labor and Social Legislation 10% , Civil Law 15% , Taxation 10% , Mercantile Law 15% , Criminal Law 10% , Remedial Law 20% and Legal and Judicial Ethics 5%. Examinees were tasked to answer open-ended questions in long hand. Those questions, carefully selected by the committee, are formulated to test analytical ability, facility in expression in terms of written argument, comprehension of basic principles of law, and grasp of jurisprudence. In 2012, the Bar exam committee lowered the passing average to as low as 70%. In 2013 and 2014, the highest court lowered the passing grade to 73% in view of the structure of the results, the difficulty the candidates encountered with the MCQ portion of the exam, and in light of past precedents. Meanwhile, the standard passing grade of 75% was kept for the 2015 and 2016 examinations. Section 14, Rule 138 of Revised Rule of Court added that there should be no grade falling below 50% in any bar subject. The Bar Examiners committee manually checked the test papers which caused the long waiting period of about five 5 months.

Same with the previous examinations, The Summit Express will provide immediate and live updates on this page and our social media accounts in time for the announcement of results. PHILIPPINE BAR EXAM OVERVIEW AND HISTORY The Philippine bar examinations, dubbed as the most prestigious professional licensure exam in the country for aspiring lawyers, is the only professional exam not handled by the Professional Regulation Commission PRC. It is exclusively supervised by the Supreme Court. The SC conducts the Bar examinations pursuant to Article VIII, Section 5 of the Constitution which provides that it shall have the power to promulgate rules governing the admission to the practice of law. Some Filipino lawyers say the bar exam is tough because it is centralized on eight bar subjects, with the expected annual passing rate of 20% to 30%. Special en banc session for the 'decoding of bar exam results' is being done morning prior to the release of results. Decoding is the process where the SC orders the OBC to open the sealed envelopes with the names of the candidates who passed the exams. From 2000 to 2006, the Bar exam passing rate exceeds 30% three times in 2001, 2004, and 2006. After that, the passing rates saw a decline, with the rate going as low as 20. However, the following year, in 2011, the passing rate suddenly increased to more than 30 percent 31. This was the year the SC introduced multiple-choice questions MCQ in the exams. For two years, results for MCQs weighed more 60 percent than the results for essay questions 40 percent. But unlike in the 2011 results, the 2012 passing rate plummeted to a 12-year low of 17. The following year, in 2013, the high court decided to change the Bar exam rules anew. This time, essay questions were made to weigh more 80 percent than the MCQ 20 percent. That year, the passing rate recovered 22. The 2014 exam also resulted to a low passing rate of 18. Last year, a record-breaking 59. This was a historic high for at least 30 years. University of San Carlos' Karen Mae Calam aced the bar with a rating of 89.
