SC: 982 pass 2010 Bar exams, Ateneo law graduate tops list - Nation - GMA News Online - Latest Philippine News

The Supreme Court announced on Thursday that only 982 out of 4,847 examinees passed the 2010 Bar examinations, bringing the passing rate to 20.26 percent, the second lowest in the last 10 years.

Oath-taking of the successful Bar examinees is on April 14, 2011, at the Philippine International Convention Center.

The passers were part of the examinees who took last year’s controversial Bar exam which was marred by a grenade explosion that injured some 50 people.

The passing rate for the 2010 Bar exam is lower than the 24.5 percent passing rate in 2009. The passers received a mark higher than 72.5 percent. Last year, the passing mark was 71 percent.

The passing rate for 2010 is also the second lowest in the past decade – next only to 2002 when only 19.68 percent passed the Bar exams.
