At least kay sanchez roman magiging first lawyer pa lang siya... Hindi pa masyado pressure yun..
Kung baga... happy family niya pag naging lawyer siya, yun lang.
Mas may pressure sa mga anak ng abogado tapos yung parents nila DAKILANG TAKE ONE pa sa bar...
BUt I think it is better to have pressure than to have none. Pero wag lang sobra.

YOu do not need to be really "intelligent to pass the bar" or to become a lawyer.
hindi din kailangan kung superb ang english (flowering english ba). Simple but grammatical english will do
Failing a subject is okay... BASTA pasado agad sa bar!

Don't Quit



When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all up hill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up, though the pace seems slow -
You might succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup.
And he learned too late, when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out -
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt -
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things seem worst that you mustn't quit.

Ok na yung masayang ang isang taon kesa hindi ka maging abugado.

Take it easy and enjoy the ride kasi the more na maintimidate ka at mapressure the more na paralyze ka ng takot mo.

Mahirap talaga ang law and normal (sa ibang law school) din ang bumagsak sa law (pero kung makakiwas the better).

napag-tripan na din ako ng mga kumag na prof before, every meeting ako lang ang nagrerecit halos. tapos dahil asar sya sa pagmumukha ko and dahil i never showed fear nor gave him the pleasure na pakita na nahihirapan ako, binagsak niya ako just to see if i'll come to him and beg for a decent grade.

Pag super hirap kana, just read this:
