HONOR CODE FOR BAR EXAMINEES

I acknowledge that the lawyer’s oath shall be applicable to me from the time
I apply to become a lawyer. On my honor, I declare that I have not done and will
not do any act that can be construed as cheating or dishonesty by the Bar Chairperson
or by the Supreme Court. Likewise, I commit not to aid or tolerate anyone who
attempts or commits any form of cheating or dishonesty before, during, and after the
Bar Examinations. I commit to report and stand as witness to any act of dishonesty
regarding the examinations.

To protect myself and others during the Bar Examinations, I commit, on my

honor, to voluntarily isolate or quarantine myself and strictly follow all health
protocols (including COVID-19 testing requirements) within the period required by
the Bar Chairperson, so as not to infect others with the virus causing this pandemic.

I understand that my carelessness with respect to isolation, quarantine, and

health protocols will affect the future of others who, like me, aspire to pass and
become lawyers.

Any failure on my part to comply with these commitments may constitute

grounds for my permanent disqualification for this and any future bar examinations.
