But how does one take a step toward a life-changing decision?

When the first-ever digital Bar Exam results were out, it reported that 8,241 out of 11,402 hopefuls passed, equivalent to a passing rate of 72.28 percent.University of Southern Philippines FoundationIf you’re thinking about taking the first step to achieving a dream, let’s be inspired by personal notes from Atty. Ruelan and Atty. Medalle.Like any other kid, Medalle, who hails from Minglanilla, Cebu, was taught to focus on her academic performance and to always aim higher.

And Ruelan and Medalle proved that although they started as beginners, they definitely finished law school with the confidence to take on any challenge. As a working mom and law student, Medalle shared that USPF was a welcoming institution. Studying law while getting pregnant, giving birth, breastfeeding, and taking care of a newborn was indeed no easy ride for her.

“The environment is conducive to learning and personal growth. The school is very understanding and accommodating to the personal lives of the students as long as the concerns are reasonable. The law professors are also very knowledgeable, updated, and relatable,” she added. But indeed, after graduating from law school, only half of the work is done. The preparation for the bar exams was almost twice as hard as in the past years when you had to study law.

“I was told to stick to one textbook, one review material, and one codal, so I did. I also followed the syllabi to the letter. I allotted buffer days for when I get sick, or feel unmotivated, or for some mental health break,” she shared.Happy and overjoyed would be an understatement to describe Ruelan’s and Medalle’s reactions after finding out they passed the Bar Exams with exemplary performance.
