11,437 examinees attend first day of 2025 bar exams
Business World Philippines
|September 08, 2025
THE SUPREME COURT said 11,437 aspiring lawyers sat for the first day of the 2025 Bar Examinations on Sunday, marking an 86.7% turnout from 13,193 registrants.
Associate Justice Amy C. Lazaro-Javier, chairperson of this year’s exams, said the attendance reflects an increase from 2024, when 10,483 examinees reported on the first day.
“The trend is going up,” she told a news briefing. “Whenever there is a significant casualty rate, those who did not pass tend to return the following year.”
Of this year’s candidates, 5,215 are first-time takers, 4,239 are retakers and 1,984 are refresher examinees. The group also includes 241 persons with disabilities, 206 senior examinees, 41 pregnant examinees and 139 with medical conditions.
