2023 Testimonials

Hello, Jurists! I was one of the students who availed of and attended your pre-bar lecture series
that you conducted January 2023-April 2023. I wanted to express my gratitude and thanks to the
lecturers, admin staff who planned the well-thought of presentation and sequence of subjects
that kept the topics interesting. One of the reasons why I passed the 2023 bar. More power to
Jurists! God bless.

ATTY. WEALTHIE T. KHO

It was all worth it!!! Thank you so much, Jurists Bar Review Center!

I would not have made it if it was not for your system, guidance, and teachings!!!
From my last bar attempt, I needed 6 points to pass in my average… And now for this 2023 Bar
exams, the needed 6 points was made possible all because of your help!
I gave it my full trust and focus, to follow everything you have taught us. Sir Manny’s words kept
on reminding me, even while I was inside the examination room.
I had so many wonderful coaches! Special mention to Coaches: Paul Vincent Cunanan,
Francesca Cabral, Kathlene Benzon, and most of all… to Coach Mark Genesis Pareja! Coach
Mark truly kept in touch… Sent me emails before the day of the exams, during the waiting period
and after the results came out. Even in the little things you do, it saved this examinee’s life!
Coach Mark, please know that your help and sincerity in doing so, means so much to me! Hats
off to all of you!
I trust that Jurists will keep on moving forward and innovate in keeping up with the trend,
especially on how to make it in the Bar!
I could not thank you all enough. Sir Manny and Ma’am Hazel, and to everyone in Jurists,
Ma’am Cynthia, and to all the AMAZING coaches at Jurists!
I will never forget all your teachings, advice, and compassion that you have given to me, us
reviewees.
Thank you so much my Jurists family!

Good day, Jurists Bar Review! 

I am very pleased to inform your good office that I have recently passed the September 2023 Bar Exams. I would like to express my sincerest gratitude sa review center na ito for helping me pass the Bar. I availed of the one-on-one coaching program and it was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Your coaches were of great help to me in answering especially during the times when I don’t know the answers. As advised by your coaches, I applied the CRAC method and always considered the convenience of the examiners. I firmly believe that the Jurists method was one of the main reasons why I passed the Bar Exams. 

No wonder marami ang pumapasa from this review center. Proven and tested talaga. 

Thank you so much and God speed!

ATTY. LOURDES ANNE GAMALO

Good Day Jurists and coaches! 

I am happy to say that I passed the 2023 BAR Exam with your guidance and support. I initially didn’t want to take the exam especially I know in my mind that I lack the required knowledge and confidence to pass. Adding the fact that I will not be able to fully utilize the 6 months’ review, that scared me even more. Nonetheless, I took the risk to try, whatever the results may be. I asked my classmates what review school is the best to enroll in, and here I am a proud Jurists Reviewee.

Thank you Jurists because you were with us since day 1. I am one of those reviewees who keep on emailing you questions. Sometimes, I hold myself back in asking since I feel like it is too much. But you never left me hanging, and you tried to answer as soon as possible. I am and forever will be grateful to Jurists. I may not be 100% confident in passing the BAR exam, but you helped me boost my confidence and say to myself that, “I am ready and I will be a lawyer.” 

Once again, thank you!

ATTY. ROVELYN PAMOTONGAN

Hi, Jurists Fam! Thank you so much for helping me hurdle the most grueling exam I have ever taken. Your techniques and approaches indeed is the strongest battle shield that helped me survive. Mabbalo! 

ATTY. JALE ANN A. ESPAÑOL

To my Jurists Family,

I would like to extend my profound gratitude to the entire Jurists Bar Review Team.

I made it po  (#Hernandidit), despite the struggles in my BAR journey…. A working reviewee. Was not given a leave (Was able to use Forced Leave only during the Bar Exam week). Had a son with Autism to attend to……

Why did I pass the 1st try?…

BECAUSE I trusted and used exclusively Jurists materials. Followed to the letter, what Prof. Manny preaches.

During my entire Bar Review Journey, I did not entertain any other review materials. I 100% put my trust to Jurists.

And, that Jurists method of answering Bar questions is my saving grace .

DIOS MABALOS JURISTS… 

Yours sincerely,

ATTY. DOMINGO R. SALDO, JR.

I am a mom of three and a public elementary school principal in the province. I was only able to take two months of study leave. And while I am thankful for the training I received in law school, I know that the Jurists method gave me the edge to successfully hurdle the bar in my first attempt. I will never get tired of recommending JBRC to friends and colleagues. Thank you so, so much!

Thank you, Team Jurists. Thank you, Atty. Riguera. I am one of the 2023 Bar Passers. I benefited much in your program, especially the mock bar exams. During the bar exam, I applied what you taught us — “to argue no matter what with legal basis”…

ATTY. JACK LORD L. DELA CRUZ

Thank you so much, JBRC. You have been instrumental in helping me claim the dot. I wouldn’t have made it if not for your esteemed roster of lecturers and coaches. Your CRAC method work wonders. I diligently applied it during the bar and fortunately I passed it on my first try. Maraming, maraming salamat po.

First of all, thank you, Jurists!

Apart from the lectures and the lessons from the amazing professors, Jurists helped me the most with what goes beyond the legal bases and the manner of answering. Jurists equipped me with the right calmness, humility, and confidence a Bar Taker must possess. Even when you have all the legal knowledge, without the right attitude or mental and spiritual fortitude, slaying the Bar Dragon would be impossible. Thank you, Jurists!

Thank you so much Attorney! 

I am very grateful that I have chosen the Jurists Review Center for my Bar review as it really helped me not only in reviewing for the bar subjects, but also in the proper and effective way of answering the Bar exam questions. The Jurists format really helped me convey my answers in a clear and logical manner. It is also easier to draft my answers using said format, which gave me more time to analyze the questions and be responsive to it. The mock bar also gave me the needed experience on the type of exam that I would be taking as well as in practicing on how to answer said exam. The affirmations and the inspiring words of the lecturers at every end of the lecture videos kept my spirits up and to persevere all throughout the review season. Finally, I am very thankful to the coaches, the lecturers, and the staff of the Jurists Review Center for helping us and for ensuring that we get the best out of our review experience and in preparing us for the Bar exam. 

Best Regards,

A pleasant day.

I am from the Rizal Memorial Colleges – School of Law in Davao City. This is to show my gratitude for having helped me in the recent Bar Examinations. I hurdled the same in just one (1) take the JURISTS WAY!!!

There were quite a number of items in the Bar Exam that I found difficult, yet I was confident in answering them based on the styles and techniques you taught us.

For that, I am very grateful to have enrolled in your review.

Pro Deo Et Patria!

Gratefully yours,

ATTY. ROLANDO M. REUBAL

Thank you so much, Jurists Bar Review!  Great lecturers and very effective coaching. Thank you, Atty. Riguera. Thank you, Atty. Apaya.

ATTY. YSABELA MARASIGAN

Thank you for the guidance and the knowledge that you have imparted. 

I honestly didn’t think I was ready given the lack of time and the capsulized schedule of the Bar Exam but I just took all the lessons and lectures to heart. 

I am convinced that one of the strong grounds I had was the method your review center had shared  

After a series of mock bars and face-to-face coaching, I could honestly say that I have more or less honed my usage of the format on how to answer the bar questions cohesively and logically. 

ATTY. ANNYKA DELA CRUZ

Thank you, Jurists. Big factor talaga kayo in my success in the 2023 Bar exams. I mainly relied on your lectures and materials. The mock bars are also very helpful. Glad I trusted your process and the tips from the lecturers in answering. I strictly followed the Jurists method. Thank you! Thank you, Jurists! 

Much love,

Thank you, Jurist Bar Review, for helping me achieve my childhood dream of becoming a lawyer. Before enrolling in Jurists, I am clueless on how to hurdle the Bar especially constructing my sentences. But Jurist taught me to believe in the CRAC format, it made my answers logical and organized. I was able to learn how to spot the issues and answer what is only being asked. Atty Manny and his team were part of my success, I will be forever grateful for this opportunity and privilege. I would like to also thank my coach, Atty. Arlene Ang, for being with me and guiding me during the mock Bars. I can really say that Jurists Bar Review Center is excellent in giving updated and relevant lectures. Thank you, Jurists. God bless!

ATTY. MATTHEW JASON SABILLO

I passed the 2023 Bar Exam. Thank you, Jurists! Special thanks to my coaches who taught me how to present my answers well.

Thank you very much, Jurists Bar Review, particularly to Atty. Manny Riguera, all the lecturers, and my coaches. I was able to conquer the 2023 #HernanDoIt Bar Examination following the Jurists Method. Talagang subok na! 

Maraming maraming salamat, Jurists Bar Review! 

ATTY. ROMEO R. MALIGAYA JR.

Thank you Jurists Bar Review ! 

I trusted the Jurists’ system and in all my answers I never departed from the CRAC method. I am a full time employee, only able to review full time on weekends, and took an official leave from work only on September 5th – with barely 2 weeks to review so I made sure I studied for 20hours a day until Day 1 Exam. 

I specifically would like to thank my coach Atty Mark Genesis C. Pareja for being so patient with me, and never gave up on me when I was hitting rock bottom in my review. I almost doubted myself but his constant reminder to stick to the Jurists system made me get through the grueling 3-day bar exam. I passed on my first take despite being a working student and a mother of three children. 

Next to God and my supportive husband, I thank my coach and Jurists for making it possible. 

Thank you Jurists, more power to your team and God bless you more! 

ATTY. RUSSEL MUSA BINAGATAN

Hello, Jurists! Thank you so much! A huge factor of me making it is because I used your method in answering the exams. 

ATTY. INGRID CATOLICO

Dear Jurists Bar Review,

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Atty. Manny Riguera, to the roster of professors/lecturers, staff, and to the whole Jurists family. This is my second take. I also enrolled in Jurists back in 2019. At that point, I failed the bar. Re-enrolled in 2023, put in some more hardwork and focus on studying, used Jurists format in all of my answers which I think are well appreciated by the examiners as I am now one of the 3,812 SBEs. More power to Jurists Bar Review! Again, thank you.

Sincerely,

ATTY. RUSTY JOHN Y. ABELLO

JURISTS BAR REVIEW CENTER FAMILY/TEAM:
