Bar exams out on Friday—SC

The Supreme Court (SC) is set to release on Friday the results of the 2009 Bar examinations held at the De La Salle University in Manila last September. Court administrator and spokesman Jose Midas Marquez said all the justices of the SC will meet to deliberate on the passing rate of the exams before releasing the final results. Deliberations on the Bar results will be led by Associate Justice Eduardo Nachura, chair of the high court's 2009 Committee on Bar Examination. The list of new lawyers will be displayed on LCD projectors at the front gate of the Supreme Court building on Padre Faura Street, Manila. Some 5,903 Law school graduates took last September's Bar exams. - ABS/JV, GMANews.TV
