00:00The Supreme Court has now released the results of the bar examinations for 2024.
00:06And this year, the passing grade of the examinations was adjusted.
00:09That's why the attendance was increased.
00:12That's the center of the news of Bernard Ferrer.
00:17Angelica received a lot of hugs from her mother.
00:21Because she is one of the lucky ones who passed the 2024 bar examinations.
00:25Aside from the bar examinations, Angelica also passed the Certified Public Accountant or CPA Licensure examinations.
00:37Charmaine was emotional while her son and mother hugged each other when she was one of the bar passers.
00:43I am really thankful to God. That's all I can feel.
00:47In my mother's prayers, my son is here.
00:50She did not expect that she would pass the bar examinations for the first time.
00:55This is the inspiration of her son, who plans to pursue his studies as a lawyer.
01:00I really want to continue. Not just one, but I really want to have two lawyers in our family.
01:07Supreme Court Associate Justice Mario V. Lopez asked for an apology for the delay of the bar exam results.
01:14I apologize for the delay, but the delay is worth a sacrifice.
01:21Because that delay caused the adjustment of the grade so that there will be more lawyers who will pass the bar exam.
01:36From 75%, the passing rate was reduced to 74%.
01:39Because of this, the bar passers reached 37.84% or equivalent to 3,962 new lawyers.
01:47Kyle Christian Tutor was the first one to pass the 2024 bar examinations from the University of the Philippines.
01:53Maria Cristina Aniceto was the top 2 from Ateneo de Manila University.
01:57Gerald Rojas was the top 3 from Angeles University Foundation.
02:01John Philip Chua was the top 4 from the University of the Philippines.
02:04Jet Ryan Nicolas was the top 5 from the University of the Philippines.
02:08Ateneo de Manila University was the top 6.
02:12University of Mindanao was the top 8.
02:14Western Mindanao State University was the top 9.
02:17And San Beda University was the top 10.
02:19Meanwhile, the oath-taking ceremony and signing of the role of attorneys will be held on January 24, 2025 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.
