The Bar Exam for Dummies

by Atty. Analou Sazon

THE MOMENT

The make or break nature of this examination is not debatable but the good news is, we have the opportunity to make it lean more on the “make” side.  Of course, it is expected that you have done your share of studying and preparation. This is the moment of truth.

1. Remember your 4L’s.

2. Be conscious of the time but don’t let it get the better of you.

3. Calculate the minutes you would want to spend on a question to make sure you finish on time.

4. Remember the techniques in formulating your answer.  The pyramid or the inverted pyramid will be very helpful.

5. Call to mind that the MOST minutes an examiner would spend on your booklet is 10.  MAKE SURE HE GETS WHAT YOU MEAN IN TEN MINUTES.  I’M TALKING ABOUT ALL 20 QUESTIONS. TEN MINUTES.

6. PRAY.

7. Think of someone who inspires you.
