(Top 10) Philippine Bar Exams 2007

The Supreme Court too two days to release the Bar results because the Office of the Bar Confidant wanted to double-Check the schools since some institutions have changed their names. The decoding of the names was done last Friday. Congratulations to everyone who passed! Both USC and UC Law Schools did not fail to impress.

Cebu Delivered two bar top-notchers in the 2007 Bar Exams. The Cebuana graduate of the University of San Carlos (USC) ranked fourth place among 1,289 passers in the national exams, with a grade of 82.10 percent. And Christian B. Llido of the University of Cebu (UC) was in tenth place, a tie with Vivian Tan of the University of the Philippines – Diliman with a score of 80.9 percent.

Llido will receive a brand new Toyota car as his reward from the school (Atty. Augusto Go – wow, perhaps next year there will be I think more topnotchers). Last year Atty. Go (President of UC) started to give away a car for the UC law graduate Al-Shwaid Ismael who ranked eighth place in the 2006 bar examinations.
