BAR EXAM Answers

(May also be used in preparing pleadings)

Lets admit it, it is hard to know all the answers in a given Bar exam. Well, that is perfectly normal. But do not ever get discouraged. Familiarize yourself with these
introductory lines Answering the Bar will then flow smoothly as it should be.To my mind, the four year (or more) law study of a Bar candidate is more than
sufficient to at least hurdle the Bar, if not top it. But that is on the assumption that the Bar aspirant has been a diligent law student, meaning he/she has religiously
studied every subject of the course. I made this to be of help to law graduates who will be taking the Bar in the near future. All of them for sure know the law. After
all, perhaps it would be safe to presume, that they will not graduate if they did not deserve to. Taking the Bar and answering every question given by the Honorable
Bar examiners are not based solely in knowing the law. I think that you will agree with me that it is more of HOW TO EFFECTIVELY CONVEY to the examiner
(thru the test booklet answers) that the Bar candidate knows the applicable law and how should it be properly applied in the given scenario. Appropriate usage of
introductory words and statements are great factors, to the point I guess that it would appear that as if we know the law, when in truth and in fact, we do not or that
we have forgotten the same

WHY READ THIS?
Hence, these useful introductory lines were culled from Supreme Court decided cases and compiled for anybodys consumption.Imagine a test booklet with

check such test booklet, chances are, your enthusiasm in checking it might lessen as you go about the docket of booklets
