00:00The Supreme Court clarified that they will not just give individual grades to those who will get bar examinations starting this year.
00:08According to Supreme Court Chief Justice Alexander Esmundo, they will still issue the grade of the bar takers who topped the exams and also have a tie of their scores.
00:18But if the schools will ask for it, they will not just give it and a legal basis is needed for this.
00:25According to the guidelines issued by 2024 Bar Chairperson Associate Justice Ramon Paul Hernando,
00:31they will violate the Data Privacy Act of 2012 if they will give the grade and name of the bar takers to the schools.
00:38But if they still want to get this from the law schools, the name or identification of the examiners should not be included.
00:46On December 13, or tomorrow, the Supreme Court is expected to issue the results of the 2024 Bar Exams where 10,490 bar takers have completed the examinations.
00:59We can give you the data but we cannot give you the personal details of the bar candidates. That is the restriction.
