When I was in first year, law school was more of a task to me- something that I needed to accomplish not because of the love of it but simply to prove myself. Now that I am almost there, I am seeing the real beauty of law. Studying is more than giving into the whims of one’s cognitive demands, rather, it is getting a step closer to self- actualization. The road may be tough and arduous, but we will thank ourselves for choosing this path over the others when that time comes.

You’ve made the right choice! Congratulations!

I left a high paying job at a multinational firm to enter law school.

It has a long dream of mine to become an excellent lawyer. I find the study of law the most interesting. Why? When you know the law, you can defend yourself, and defend others as well. I believe this is the very essence of legal studies, to learn how to defend and protect your rights!

im a first year stud of LL.B.a working student and a mother of two kids who still needs care and attention. i enter law school because of some influences and for self improvement.its a dream of mine also (i have so many dreams but none of dream comes in reality.human as I am).now, i’ve come to the point that i have to choose between my dreams and my family. should i continue this, my role as a mother seems to obliterate…the guilt is incomparable when during weekends which my time will be supposed to be spend with my children instead of reading my civil,political and criminal books.my relationship with my husband who is working abroad is affected also.i rarely texted him and return back his call because i am so occupied with my work and school.but, before i enter law school, i am aware that i have to make many sacrifices.my concern now and the biggest question in my life right now is, should i pursue my dream?or i just leave it there and accept the fact that becoming a lawyer is not a calling for me.pls help.

I graduated in 1999 with a degree in Business Administration. Though I’m now at my early 30s, I still bear the dream of becoming a lawyer. As a matter of fact, I gathered every bits of information from the previous bar exams for the hope that it could help me a lot to trigger the desire that is within me. Learn from such materials and arm myself with thought and inspiration that I could be a lawyer someday. My only fear is that how I could finish the law course and pass the bar exam…

I enrolled in a Baguio university 16 years ago, hoping then to become a lawyer after graduation and passing the Bar. I stopped my law studies after a year due to an unfortunate personal circumstance. How I envied some of my batch mates who eventually became lawyers in 1999! Since then, I feel like being one of the examinees, eagerly awaiting for the results year after year.

Now, after years of contemplation, I decided to give it another try. I plan to enroll this June and finally make my dream of becoming a lawyer a reality. Some may consider me old enough now to take up Law but it’s not really an issue to me. Why I still want to be one? More than the prestige, it’s the only profession I want to indulge myself in for the next decades of my life.
