We've heard about the hype on the recently-released November 2011 Bar Examination result. A total of 1,913 new lawyers were happy to hear the news. The anxiety that they went through in waiting for the result has already been concluded.
As we celebrate with the successful examinees, we cannot help but think about the greater percentage of barristers who did not make it. What happens after the bar? Well, everybody waits. What happens after the result? That's a question that divides the group because the bar has never had a 100% passing rate. Some rejoice, while some would honestly not know what to do.
As most people would say, LIFE GOES ON. It's a cliche, but it's true.
Four years of law school isn't a walk in the park. Except for people who enroll in law school for the sole purpose of promotion (or if he has nothing else to do but to just enroll to keep his allowance flowing), every law student would definitely have that goal of becoming a lawyer. And that wretched bar examination is the most difficult and treacherous part of the battle that you would have to surpass before you get the title.
If you were not successful on your first try, you have four more chances to make it right!
You don't have to hate the bar or the people behind the examination. You just have to try again. Just like in a real battle, you practice and hone your skills, sharpen your sword, polish your armor, and most of all, ready your self to give your ALL. Don't ever let yourself be drowned in regrets. DO YOUR BEST.
