Tips-for-2nd-year-1st-sem-_.pdf 684lx

Congratulations and Welcome to 2nd Year! ☺ First of all, I want to start off by scaring you and saying na ang kalisod sa 2nd year kay times 3 sa First Year. Why? Because that mindset helped me survive 2nd year 1st Sem. Halos tanan subjects kay major na. Bar subjects naman gud tanan. NatRes ra siguro maconsider na minor. BUT, Ayg tuo na di kaya ma survive ang 2nd Year 1st Sem na way bagsak. Kaya man basta maningkamot. ☺ Strike a balance lang jud between strategy and diligence. (2nd year 1st sem guide ra ni ha kay wa pa koy locus standi mag share about 2nd sem kay wa pa niabot tanan akuang grado..haha). Best thing to do now is to read in advance. Ngano? There will not be enough time for everything na during the sem. Maski 10 pages a day or one case a day ra gud para makabakasyon and makapahuway gihapon kag taman for Summer. You won’t regret reading in advance, promise. Ang top 3 jud na akuang ma suggest na basahon in advance are: • • •

CRIMPRO – Use LA TSN PROPERTY – Use Paras SALES – Tung case list ni Ma’am. Di man kayo to ga change. If naa, gamay ra. (I attached sa e-mail ang latest course outline ni Ma’am. Kabalo ko hugaw pero bawal mag judge. Haha)

Also, here are some prof and subject-specific tips for 2nd year 1st Sem especially kung sa 2Manresa ka ibutang ☺ Subject and Professor Atty. Batacan PROPERTY 5 units (Si Atty. Suarez for SR)

Atty. Suarez CRIM PRO 3 units (Si Atty. Europa for SR)

Most Effective Material/s (For Me) Paras Book CODAL

Book ni Atty. Suarez LA TSN CODAL

Tips Read the book in advance then paminaw sa lecture. Si sir Ed ay murag si Atty. Buena mag lecture. Gina highlight lang ang important. Pati sa exam, especially sa prelims, kato pud nagagawas. Buotan sya and di na sya terror pero ayaw kumpyansa kay akuang Final Grade sa iya way plus. All exams divided by 4 lang. So careful jud. *For exams: Book (especially tung iyang gi highlight as important), CODAL (MEMORIZE!!!), TM Notes (Kalat ni na notes ni Sir Ed pero NEVER make him feel na naa moy copy kay di sya ganahan), Past Exams 2nd year experience is not complete without her. Haha. And she expects you to know her rules even without her telling you. Some of her rules: • Wear ID all the time, maski wa ka sa sulod sa classroom • Dress well (sa amuang 1st day of class, gipaadto mi sa atubangan tas gi check

• •

•

niya ang propriety sa amuang attire) Don’t wear YELLOW (she hates that color) When reporting/reciting, NEVER use petitioner or respondent, gamita ang name mismo sa petitioner ug respondent. Kung daghan, ingna lang “et.al.” When reporting/reciting, make it short and concise, focus lang sa important and sa iyang ginapangita. Ayaw pag pa impress na wala sa lugar.

For Atty. Suarez, impression matters and 1st impression lasts. So work on that. For reporting, read the full-text. She will know kung nag digest ra ka.

Fr. Gus LABOR STANDARDS 2 units

TSNs

*For exams: LA TSN, CODAL (Memorize!!!), Past Exams Walking genius ni si Father. So record his lectures. Daghan kayo kay ma learn. He won’t terrorize you. Mag lecture ra na sya. But he is known for not adjusting your grades. Imung grade is all exams divided by the number of exams ra jud. Unya kana na na. Maski 74.5 pa na. Round down man so 74. Maski muhilak pa kag ice drop. Final na na. True or False rapud iyang exam. So study in a detailed way. Precision is the secret.

Atty. Elman PUBLIC CORPORATION 2 units (For both Manresa and SR)

LA TSN

Atty. Valencia Sigma TSN ELECTIONS 2 units (For both Manresa and SR)

*For exams: 3 TSN rule. Record him this year. Tas pangita ug maayong TSN for the past 2 years. Basaha jud tanan iyang handouts. Kung kaya pa, read Azucena. Sir Elman is one of the kindest professors in law school. He won’t terrorize you. For recit, I can say na even digests would be enough basta makabalo ka sa issue and relevant ruling. *For exams: LA TSN, Sir Elman’s Powerpoint Presentation, Past Exams Atty. Valencia is similar to Atty. G. Mother figure. But her recitations will give you mild heart attacks. For her recits, at first masunod pa ang order, and it would suffice na maka read kag 10 cases. Pero ma shock nalang ka kay mag skipskip na sya and there is no possible way na

nabasa to nimo na kaso kay ika 35th case na sya sa list (except kung alien ka and mabasa jud nimo tanan). Ana gud. So giunsa nako pag survive iyang recit? Reading what I can and the rest was divine intervention. Swear. Pag matawag ka sa recit, and you know the case, MAKE HER FEEL THAT YOU DO. If she feels na kabalo ka sa case, it will save you from her asking you questions like “how many votes were cast”, “how many precincts”, “what case was filed and where”. Kay kung unsa ka specific ang recits ni Atty. Suarez, ato ka all-encoming ang kay Atty. V. P.S. Know when her birthday is and paghatag mog gift as a batch. Pag makalimot mo, kamo ra ang batch na wa sya na . And she will that. Hehe.

Atty. Sarona-Lozare Class Transcription SALES 2 units (For both Manresa and SR)

*For exams: Sigma TSN, Bar Reviewer ni Atty. Valencia (Batch 2016 graduates ang latest source ani), Past Exams Atty. Sarona is my personal favourite ☺ Wala syay igawas sa exam na wala niya gitudlo. So best way to survive sa iya is to record and transcribe her lectures. Most 2nd year students have that erroneous thinking na TANAN subjects dapat i-transcribe. In my opinion, makabuang na. It would take most of your time. Mawad-an kag social life ana, hala ka. So choose the profs to transcribe and number one sa list si Atty. Sarona. She’s like a book talking man gud. ☺ For recits, read full text. Reasonable man ang iyang ginapabasa, 7-10 cases per session.

Atty. Panes Agcaoili Book LANDTI 2 units (Nakalimot ko kinsa sa SR)

*For exams: Class TSN (I suggest na apilan na ninyo ug case digest para kato nalang inyung study-han), Past Exams (although not indispensable) Na stress ko sa LandTi. Haha. Basta basaha lang tanan kaso na iyang ipa recite pati ang part sa book na related ato. Loyalist man si Ma’am kay Agcaoili. Pansin nako na her exams come from the book and full-text raman jud.

Atty. Coronel

*For exam: Book and cases Naga quiz si Sir every meeting. And iyang exam,

TSN

NATRES 1 unit (Si Atty. Tan for SR)

compilation of quizzes plus additional questions. Okay mag full text sa iyaha, especially sa sugod, for recit and quiz purposes. Pero tung nagkabuang nako balance sa tanan subjects, I ended up with digests. Just have a good TSN. The one I got was from the Graduating Batch of 2016. Okay to. For your class activity, daghay naga ingun na pinaka gusto ni Sir na mag tree planting mo. Haha ☺ *For exam: TSN

There you have it. This is practically everything I wished someone told me before nag 2nd year 1st sem ko. Haha. I wish it helps you. God bless and enjoy the journey! ☺ Lovelots,
