The
Bar Exam for Dummies

THE FIRST SATURDAY
This day should not be taken
lightly for it is as nerve-racking as the first Sunday itself,
especially for first time bar takers.
The “fear of the unknown” will occupy
position number one.
Be weary of possible apparitions courtesy of
early childhood traumas and fixations.
You can never tell…
-
Do lots of calming exercises.
Panic attacks and anxieties will be in
overload on this day.
Be sure to catch yourself and not waste
your energy on useless worries.
Pray a lot.
-
If possible, visit DLSU and find your assigned
building.
Familiarize yourself with the place and
go through the anticipated routine. This
will at least ease your nerves at some level.
“Knowing thy enemy is winning half the
battle”
-
Limit your review to codals.
Pace yourself and do not overdo it.
You are already expected to be finished
with deep studying during the past 5 days or so.
This is the time to relax a bit.
-
Attend the Bar Ops mass. – You will need God’s
blessing as well as a break from studying.
Fresh air outside the four walls of
your condo or dorm will do you a lot of good.
It will clear your head.
Also, this is the time to break away
from the monotony of legal provisions and indulge your weary brain
in some good old “tsismis” of what’s and who’s.
-
Savor the fellowship and the moral support
given to you by your well wishers.
They will be overflowing during the
first Sunday but you will sorely miss the action after they abruptly
become invisible during the 2nd and 3rd weeks.
So get a load of them while they are
still there.
-
Call or
talk to someone who inspires you.
-
TRY to get enough rest.
(or sleep if you’re one of those who
can)
