Hello Lotters, It's nice to know to see over nine hundred new graduates. one of them was a taxi driver who kept stopping his studies because of lagging flow of money. now, he is a official attorney, another one is an old person who graduate also. they were challenge by the Chief Justice to show and change the face of the lawyer image and change the country. not a referral link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6d9OPbdM_Y

Hello Johndur, Some of them did everything to finish their studies, whether they are defending a victim or a criminal it's their job to simply give the person the right to defend themselves. i just hope most of these future lawyers would end up protecting more victims of abuse of simply from powerful people in our country. have a nice day

Hello blackrusty, I wouldn't want to think something like that, some of these lawyers work really hard just to graduate and in fact some of them stop school to earn money for tuition. so, i wouldn't wanna put it like that with every one of those who graduate. i wish most of them would run for politics in the future and change the phase of the country.have a nice day

Well I guess 900 is how much of the total examinees. I heard that the passing percentage is getting lower each year. I hope the new batches will be of good use to us for defending their clients the best they can.

Hope they won't end up as defense attorneys who will defend someone guilty for cash and Prosecutors who will jail the innocent.

I am one of the lucky few who passed the 2010 Bar Exams...It makes me really proud that I have accomplished this in my life because not a lot of people are given the opportunity to take further education. I'm just blessed to have very supportive parents!
