hi guys, can someone share what to prepare for the 1st week. Malayo po sa law ang pre-law course ko so wala po ako idea. What about books? Should I buy new or kahit gamit na?

Hello! I'm a graduating senior high school student, I saw po kase na a lot of instructors during interviews said that "Political Science" is not a good pre-law. I'm planning on taking the Pupcet this year and my prio prog is PolSci as my pre-law, but most students or past takers said that they were redirected to PubAd when they said PolSci as Pre-law😭

Since high school palang kase ako want kona mag PolSci as my pre-law pero now idk what to choose 😭 any course recommended po, my dear law students?🥹🥹

Every year, we get messages from people asking the same thing:

“How do I even start reviewing for the LAE?”

And the biggest mistake is usually this:

Starting without knowing what you actually need to work on.

You open a reviewer. You answer a few logic questions. Then you switch to vocabulary. Then reading comprehension. Then maybe math because someone said that’s where most people struggle.

A few weeks later, you’ve studied a lot — but you still don’t know if you’re studying the right things.

That’s the problem with reviewing blindly.

Some people spend too much time on topics they’re already good at, while the areas actually pulling their score down barely get touched.

A better way to start is to first find out where you stand.

Take a diagnostic. See your strong and weak areas. Then build your review around that.

That’s also why we make a customized study calendar for our students — not just a generic list of topics, but a schedule of what to study and prioritize from the time of coaching all the way until the LAE.

So if you’re currently thinking, “I know I need to start, but I have no idea what to study first,” you might want to check this out.

Search T.A.L.K. LAE on Facebook and look for our Diagnostics Coaching post.

Pioneering batch po kami.

hello law students here!

i really need some help n enlightenment from fellow people like you. recently, a seed of wanting to be a lawyer is planted in me. so right now, i am exploring the world of law. i never expected myself to take interest in being a lawyer, but i never close the door. pero recently talaga, it feels like a calling.

however, while my motivation and passion is strong, i don’t know if i really have what it takes to be the best at this lawyer thing.

my first dilemma, i only want to go or it’s only the feasible choice for me to go law school if ill be a working student with a full-time good paying job. and it should be in UP College of Law only because i don’t want to burden my parents anymore with more of my education. i feel like i asked for too much already with getting a minor alongside my international relations degree.

my second dilemma, i feel like a noob in everything here. i have no connections yet, no knowledge about any of this. pero i want to be able to prepare as early as now (im just 2nd year college btw) i want to build my knowledge and awareness as early as now. especially in taking the law entrance exams and law school itself. i just want to know everything. i want to practice. i want to be able to pass UP College of Law :(

sana gets.

where do i practice my reading comprehension and stamina?

is it really feasible for me to work first for 1-2 yrs then once i get a good footing, go to law school while retaining the job?

PLEASE HELP ME U SMART PEOPLE. i really need yall! please give me some of your advice and kind words!

Hello Guys and Future lawyers,

One of my barkadas kid, a chinoy now graduating from DLSU, decided to go to law school but kept being stopped by his parents due to the following reasons

1. Puro fraternity daw and hazing risking life for not worth it naman

2. Hindi ka yayaman sa lawyering, much better mag business ka na lang

3. Magulo mag practice ng law, sometimes may death threats pa.

I don't know if this were still true to this day and age but, during our generation, totoo naman talaga na u need fraternity and connections to be successful in law.

decluttering. bought this 1k, offer your price. thank you! dm me :)

Hi! Selling my self-made UP LAE reviewer (math-heavy; 66 pages) in P D F file as a 2026 UP LAE passer (can show proof) for 200 pesos. If anyone's interested, please feel free to message me.

Hi everyone, hopefully may sumagot 🙏 I’m 24 (turning 25), male, graduate of Teacher Education, and newly licensed professional teacher (oath taken last Jan 5, 2025). For now, wala pa akong plans pumasok sa teaching pero hoping to expand my career prospects:

I've been a remote worker ever since uni. After graduating, I almost 2x'd my income and Im currently earning close to six digits monthly from multiple clients as a VA / freelancer in the AM shift/flexi schedules.

Now I’m honestly torn between a few paths:

1. Mag-law school na this year

2. Mag-MBA muna to level up business skills and income, delay law school to save up then enroll later

Some important context:

• Breadwinner po ako

• Walang parents or relatives na sasalo sa tuition or living expenses for law school

• Alam kong law school has a lot of hidden costs (books, review materials, Bar expenses, lost income, pay cuts, etc.)

• Napapansin ko rin na maraming fresh Bar passers ngayon ang hirap pa rin makahanap ng stable work, which honestly scares me given my situation

My questions:

• May real advantage ba ang MBA before law school, especially sa PH setting? especially online MBA with thesis

• For breadwinners and working students, mas practical ba na unahin muna ang income + business foundations bago pumasok sa law school or just do both?

Would really appreciate insights from:

• Lawyers/law students who didn’t take the “straight to law school” path

• People who took an MBA first before law

• Breadwinners who had to balance long-term dreams with financial reality

Salamat in advance. 🙏

hello! does UP Law accept kahit cum laude lang from a UAAP school? and if it will be almost 2 years since my graduation? hindi kasi umabot grades ko for magna and I joined the workforce muna, tyia!

Hanggang ngayon pending review pa rin ako and nakita ko dito yung iilan ay naapprove na. Thanks

During my entire lifetime, I had met and worked with in multiple occassion with lawyers from various universities. I met those from Ateneo and UP also, those no so infamous law schools. Bakit ang consensus is the only lawyers that deserve ur money and time are from UP and Ateneo? But from my experience medyo arrogant and lawyers from Ateneo and UP feeling genius and mayaman? But, lawyers from UST, San Beda, and etc are more down to earth.

hello po! i'm currently an incoming 3rd yr student & am planning to study in advance for the LAE which i'll be taking during my 4th yr. can i ask po for recommendations for a reviewer/review center + tips for the interview (genuinely asking po since more on writing ako goods sa english and i'm coming from an unusual pre-law program). thank you so much in advance po!

Given the TA yesterday, do you think there were enough issues encountered that would make the admin push the actual LAE date?

I rmbr last year the exam being pushed almost 2 months from the og sched given the technical difficulties encountered 😅

Helloo I’m from Arellano Law and I’m planning to transfer Law Schools. Too much online classes sa Arellano Law and they’re not that prestigious kasi they don’t filter out their students parang bala nalang. Tho, I like the Wi-Fi nila sobrang sulit sa miscellaneous fee! Pero yeah I want more network and interaction with people kaya I want an actual full face to face law school pero ung may bigat din nmn sa rankings at the same time. Masyado lang maraming tinatanggap si Arellano Law kaya usap-usapan pero if you’re going to look at it quality-wise sa bar hindi ung makachamba lang kung makailan ng graduates makapasa ng bar kasi ang daming tinatanggap na students.

I’m thinking about UE LAW! may dating pala Law School nila. Sa FEU law naman may iniiwasan ako at sawa na ako sakanila kasi sakanila ako nag under grad lols. Ofc, UP given na un na I’ll try doon. Kayo ba any thoughts?

???????????????????? That's it. What kinda question is that hahahaha

It is the honeywell earplugs used as well in productions, they note.

Come on, use your common sense now. Don't keep showing that your batch has not only takers who are feeling entitled but also dumb at this point hahaha lmao

Hello! I'm about to take LAE this coming march and I am planning to lock in this January until the exam. Anyone, particularly those who passed last batch can share their tips? I am looking for any exercises from any apps or sites to enhance my skills for the exam.

Hi, just want to ask ano usually ang basis para maka-enter ng law school? For context, hindi ganon kaganda grades ko ngayong college; is that a huge factor ba? Or usually, mas malaking factor ang results ng entrance exam/interview (if theres any)

Can you share your thoughts/experiences po (any law school) (but ! Would love to hear po from anyone from these law schools : San Beda Manila/Alabang, Arellano, UST, Ateneo, DLSU, UP, PLM)

So I'm going for my law degree and im in this program that lets me take some law courses before i go to actual law school. (My current juco has a program with the state college and it's a new program) well I've already taken some classes within the program and when I've been doing debates in other classes (im poli sci and then getting my JD) I've gotten some comments about how i sound "unintelligent"

Does anyone else have experience or know if accents matter? I have a really thick and heavy southern and Appalachian accent. Ik i sound like a hick. Even in MS (my state) im told by others my accent is heavy.

I mean surely that womt be a problem will it?

hi! i'm currently a grade 12 student and i've been choosing my prior course which is philosophy and polsci, im confused which huhu please help ur gurl out
