Kaban ni D_BystandeR: SALIKWAOT ANG KATUYUAN SA PAGLISOD-LISOD SA PASULIT

Taking up this course is a Calvary to parents who spent a lot for their children to become lawyers. The national percentage of 17.76 percent reflecting a poor 949 passing the Bar Exam compared to a total of 5,686 takers is a grim reminder that there really is a need for something to be done to improve its passing mark. The views expressed by Dean Jonathan Capanas of College of Law of USJR to decentralize the testing venue instead of concentrating it in Manila alone is a valid argument to claim for the high mortality rate of the bar exam held last year. And another factor cited was the "multiple choice" newly  instituted by the examiners which took 60 percent of the total results

wherein most of our law students were trained to excel in essay writing where their talents are expected to characterize most of their lives as lawyers. 

This bar exam's grim result would be interpreted by many parents as a reflection of the kind of group of examiners who put up these questionnaires in an attempt to show to the world so they will be known as "intellectual giants" for attaining only a mediocre result of passers.
