MANILA, Philippines - The results of last year’s Bar examinations will be released tomorrow.
Supreme Court (SC) spokesman Theodore Te said justices decided yesterday to set the special session for approval of the results.
Associate Justice Diosdado Peralta chairs the 2014 Bar examinations committee.
A total of 5,987 examinees took the exams consisting of 20-percent multiple-choice questions and 80-percent essay-type.
The SC used bar codes on exam booklets for the first time in 113 years.
Bar codes were placed on examination booklets with corresponding stickers bearing the name of examinees placed on their assigned seats.
It replaced name cards for examinees used in previous Bar examinations.
The SC also required all examinees to use transparent or see-through bags for purposes of convenience and security.
Several measures have been put in place since a grenade explosion marred the September 2010 Bar exams in De La Salle University on Taft Avenue, Manila.
