UP LAE REVIEW '08

We successfully held our review classes last September and October 2009. To further improve our services, we invited a guest lecturer with 8 solid years of teaching experience to handle Mathematics. The main lecture, which included discussions on the admission process, legal essay writing, communication skills, reading comprehension, vocabulary, critical thinking, verbal reasoning, tips for the interview, as well as various stories, trivia and anecdotes on life in UP Law, was handled by Atty. Kat.

Here are some of the comments written by the students in their evaluation of the review. (The names are not indicated since the students were allowed to write anonymously):

On Atty. Kat's lecture...

Clear explanations. Clear voice and loud enough. Approachable and encourages questions/clarifications. Bottom line: I had a productive whole day. I think the fee was worth it. Food was great too. Good serving. Good taste. Materials provided were great.

Atty. Kat's lecture tackled everything we need to know about the UP Law Admissions. The discussion was simple and concise. The discussion was really patterned after the UP LAE format. I loved the tips. =)

The review was a comprehensive discussion of what is to be expected in the LAE. It provided guidelines and practical tips on what areas will be covered in the exam.

Comprehensive. Excellent handouts. Tips have been very helpful. Suggestion: If it's possible, can you also give out sample curriculum/syllabus. =)

I learned a lot, especially about the essay and logical reasoning. I've always been too wordy before. I also got a lot from the tips she gave us about the admission requirements and the interview.

Very pretty. =) Has very interesting stories. =) Explained the lessons well.

Very friendly and amiable. Very detailed in discussing the tips. Shares thoughts and experiences about law school.

She's a very good lecturer. Broad-minded.

From a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the highest, I would rate the lecture an 8. Atty. Reyes was very confident with her lecture, gave concrete examples and explained things very clearly. The tips on taking the exam will be very helpful.

On John's lecture...

Everything basic was tackled. Reviewer's very helpful. Math was definitely simplified. Yehey!

Clear explanations. Thank you.
Great materials. Thank you.

You made Math a lot easier for me, even though you're in a hurry, that's okay because you explained to us the formulas well. Maybe next time just be relaxed. But all in all it's good.

Detailed handouts are very good, it will surely help me. It was a good idea to use the test items as examples.

He makes things (problem solving) seem simpler/easier.

Gives us tips on how to solve the problems easier... like cancellation in fractions, etc.

Very comprehensive handout! Thank you! I think it will be very helpful!
