Associate Justice Marvic Leonen, 2020/21 Bar chairperson, said in a virtual press conference on Friday that 11,378 examinees took the exams on Friday morning in the 31 testing sites scattered in 22 local government units across the country.

 

For this Bar exam, takers must also observe health protocols. The SC administered antigen test for examinees, but they may also opt to undergo COVID-19 testing under Department of Health-accredited facilities.
