Thus far, only the Ateneo De Manila University has announced that it will be one of the many testing centers for the 2022 Bar Exam. They expect around 2,500 examinees to enter their Katipunan campus and everyone is being warned of potentially heavy traffic on the specified dates. Everyone is advised to plan their travels if they would traverse the length of Katipunan avenue.
As always, to those who will brave the traffic and to the Bar Exam takers, good luck to you all!
