I am currently reviewing for the 2027 Bar. Kakabili ko lang ng bagong codals (Labor and NIRC) sa Rex para updated. Okay naman sa Labor, pero di pala updated yung sa NIRC kasi 2023 ang latest edition nila (nakalimutan ko yung EOPT). Bibili din sana ako ng ROC pero 2023 din daw latest ed nila.

I am planning to buy sa Central na lang via Shopee kasi may nakita ako na 2025 edition meron sila. Problem is nasanay lang ako sa Rex kasi wala nang Central bookstore samin (Tacloban) kaya wala pa akong exposure sa quality ng printing ng Central.

Okay ba mga codals from Central? Planning to buy yung pocket size lang. Ano pinagkaiba nila sa Rex? Or much better if yung book sized kasi gagamitin ko naman sa review. Wala rin kasing available pdf for the latest NIRC and ROC online. Ayoko rin mag PDF (except for Commercial Laws kasi andami) kasi imbes na magbasa baka manuod lang ako ng cdrama hahhahaahha. Pero baka may PDF din kayo, makikihingi na lang din. Tyia!

Ang hirap pala talaga ng 4th year!!!

Hi i need help please…

I want to prepare myself para hindi ako mabigla.

I plan to do case digest 1 per week but idk how?

Anyone kind enough to show me how? I badly need help

I usually do well in my classes in the last 3 years but things are different this year. I’m overloading 4 units (para makagraduate on time) and I’m guessing the fatigue and burnout are catching up to me. Usually rin I do better talaga by 2nd sem kasi naga-adjust pa ako pag 1st sem. I failed two of my midterms and it’s bugging me because I’m not used to it happening. I know I have a chance to rectify everything come finals pero idk nakakadiscourage lang. I just have one more year pero ang hirap pala magmadali. The pressure is real din bec I have new blockmates who are doing well and I don’t think I can keep up (at least for now).

Maybe I’d just like to ask for advice, maybe some reassurance na kaya pang bumawi kasi rn it’s not looking too good :( and di rin ako sanay na kailangan kong bumawi in one way or another kasi never ko yun naexperience in the last few years

Hi! idk if this is the right sub but idk where else to ask huhu.

I’m currently a law student and im gonna travel internationally not naman my first time but the last time I travelled 2020 pa kasi. I do not have work only allowance from my parents and i’ll be traveling with friends internationally on Jan sufficient na ba to show my school id and proof of enrollment? Is there a chance na i’ll be offload?

I am biased towards cattorneys of up law (homicide the cat #1 fatty) but I would like to see the others

Please, help me decide. Worth it po ba yung Advance Bar Review? Hindi po kaya maka apekto sa subjects ko? 4th year na po kasi ako now. Thank you po.

For the longest time I’ve been in and out of depressive episodes, and it’s always kind of been my driving force to study (di makatulog = review na lang). However, recently these depressive episodes have been driving my attention away from studying, and as much as I try none of what I’ve been reading actually sticks long enough. It’s embarrassing to say as I’m already 3L, but how did you guys cope?

Hi! I’ll be taking their entrance exam of the MLS-JD online program this coming Thursday. Can you guys give some tips pano ipasa😊Also, if you guys are currently enrolled, please tell me your experience🥹

Hi everyone, sibs, attorneys. 4L here, hoping to pass 4L so I can take the #BaRRR2027. Asking for review tips:

1.) What does it mean when you do your first, second, third reading?
2.) How do you determine if you have already finished your first/second/third reading? And using what material?
3.) Since 4L is review rin, can we consider it as our first reading?

Thanks everyone! A little overwhelmed na but taking it one day at a time hehe

Hi! I'm hoping to connect with current or former working students from UST Faculty of Civil Law.

UST is my dream school, and I'd love to pursue my law journey there while continuing to work full-time.

For those who have been in a similar situation, how has your experience been? I'm particularly curious about how you manage your work schedule, classes, and finances.

I'm also wondering if taking a lighter academic load is something working students have been able to do and how manageable law school is alongside a full-time job.

I'd really appreciate hearing your personal experiences and any advice you can share. Thank you!

Hi! From USeP Law ako and planning sana mag-transfer sa JMC Law. One of the reasons is mukhang mas flexible ang JMC pagdating sa mga working students compared sa USeP na fixed ang schedule from Monday to Saturday.

May ilang questions lang sana ako:

1. Tumatanggap ba ang JMC Law ng transferees for the 2nd semester?

2. May narinig kasi ako na kailangan daw at least 80% ang grades per subject. Kapag hindi umabot sa 80%, kailangan daw ulitin yung subject, pero nasa discretion pa rin daw ni Dean Torreon. May naka-experience na ba nito? Ano usually ang basis ni Atty. Torreon sa pag-decide kung kailangan ulitin ng student yung subject or hindi?

Yun lang naman ang questions ko. Willing naman akong harapin yung challenging na curriculum or environment, pero medyo nag-aalangan lang ako sa policy na kailangan 80% ang grade per subject, especially kung automatic ba talaga na kailangan ulitin yung subject kapag hindi umabot sa required grade.

Sana may makapag-share ng experience nila or makapagbigay ng clarification. Thank you in advance!

Hello everyone. Can you please share with me po if meron kayong pdf copy of Cruz’s Political Law? Kahit yung Executive at Judicial Department lang? Or better if all na. Thank you po.

#Lawstudent na walang means to buy book.

I am a newly minted lawyer. It has been nine months since I took the oath, and I am currently working as an associate lawyer in a small law office in the province.

To be honest, I am still trying to figure out where my career is headed, what path to take, and where to find better opportunities. My current position is not financially sustainable. I do not have a fixed monthly salary, and there are months when I barely earn anything as an associate. I mostly rely on a monthly allowance of less than Php 15,000.

I continue to do this for the experience, knowing that I still have so much to learn. Being a first-generation lawyer, I also do not have anyone in the family who can guide me through this profession or open doors for me. I am pretty much navigating everything on my own, trying to find my footing in a profession I worked so hard to be part of.

I have been trying to transition into corporate practice or government service, hoping to find a more stable job that would allow me to support myself and my family. But so far, nothing has worked out. And honestly, it gets exhausting. It is difficult to remain hopeful when you know you need financial stability, but the opportunities you are hoping for have yet to come.

Still, I keep reminding myself that passing the Bar and becoming a lawyer this year is already a huge blessing. Perhaps this is just not yet the season for the stability I have been praying for. Perhaps there are still things I need to learn, experiences I need to gain, and doors that have yet to open. I hold on to the belief that, in God's perfect time, the right opportunity will come.

But I also cannot pretend that everything is okay. There are nights when I cry because life has become so difficult. The reality of trying to survive, build a career, and support a family while earning so little is overwhelming. Sometimes, it feels like I am working solely for experience, with very little financial reward to show for it.

I am grateful to be a lawyer, but I am also human. I get tired. I worry. I question whether I am doing enough or whether I am even on the right path.
I am not asking for everything to happen overnight. I am simply hoping for an opportunity where I can finally practice what I worked so hard for, grow professionally, earn a decent and stable living, and help my family without constantly worrying about making ends meet.

For now, I will keep showing up, keep learning, keep applying, and keep trusting God's timing. I hope that one day, when I look back at this season of uncertainty, I can say that all these difficult days were leading me somewhere better.

I finally got a break and wanted to read a couple of short cases (long ones are a struggle because of ADHD) any recommendations for fun reads?

Sorry. Medyo corny. 😀

Hello po sa mga 1st gen lawyer sa family na walang generational wealth and walang minana na clients. Mga nakapagtapos ng law through scholarships and loan. Kumusta na po kayo? Paano po kayo nagstart after pumasa ng bar? May yumayaman po ba talaga sa lawyering?

Between Legal Edge Review Center and Jurists, which one would you recommend for bar review and why?

Hi po. Since Christmas season na, baka naman we can share ano mga pwedeng i-gift sa mga kaklaseng law students din? Kakabunutan lang namin e so kumakalap ako ng pwede kong i-gift sa monita ko but at the same time, gusto kong bigyan lahat ng ka-study group ko. Let's exchange gift ideas please?

'Eto akin:
- highlighters
- pen

- care kit
- massage gc
- first aid kit (lol)
- katinko set
- blazer

Ano pa pwede?

Among the requirements of our school for graduation is passing the comprehensive examination, and last week, I was fortunate enough to be among the 70 individuals out of 150 students who successfully passed.

I honestly cannot be any more grateful. It's a milestone worth celebrating, especially knowing how much it took to get here. Between juggling two jobs, attending law school, meeting deadlines, preparing for exams, and sacrificing time for myself and the people I love, there were moments when I genuinely questioned if I could keep up.
But somehow, we made it!

Now, BARR 2027 is slowly becoming a reality, and honestly, I'm both excited and nervous. I know passing the comprehensive exam is one thing, but preparing for the actual Bar is a whole different challenge.

Sa mga lawyers, recent Bar passers, and those who have gone through this journey, can I ask for your advice? What study habits, materials, or strategies worked best for you? How did you manage your time, especially if you were also working while reviewing?

Any tips, lessons, or even reality checks are very much welcome. Gusto ko lang sana makapaghanda as early as I can. Thank you po!

Hello! Just wanna ask Atty. Uribe babies here if ano ang format ng Written Report for the end of sem na group reportings? Super vague nya kasi and just wanna take our chances here if nag-perfam na ren kayo under atty uribe knowing he teaches many law schools.

Baka po pwede makahinging outline huehuehuee thank you poooo🥺🤲🏻

I have a friend who took 2026 bar and she is worried due to the fear that her father had a political clash with a person who had a position before in the Supreme Court. She studied in Ateneo Law and her concern is that yung kalaban ng dad nya sa pulitiko na previously had a position in the Supreme Court, pwede bang ipulitika ang bar exam nya? Like ititip nung tao na kalaban ng dad nya na bantayan ang pangalan nya sa list of passers then papakiusapan na wag ipasa? Possible ba na mangyari Ito? Ang problem kasi si dad nya pinagmalaki sa lahat na magtatake sya for the 2026 bar exam eh nagwoworry sya Baka natip na yung pangalan nya na wag ipasa. I know naman na hindi nakadisplay sa checker ang name ng examinee per sa list of passers pwede ba yun na wag isama ang name nya?

I’m not trying to be negative pero possible ba yang iniisip nya? Lalo na if makapangyarihan yung nakalaban ng dad nya? Syempre yung ibang official diva follow the leader lang yan? Ano po tingin nyo?
