The U.P. Law Aptitude Exam - November 22, 2009

Sunday, November 8th, 2009

UPDATE: CLICK THIS TO SEE THE UP LAE 2010 RESULTS

The University of the Philippines College of Law has announced the holding of the Law Aptitude Exam on November 22, 2009 at 7:30 a.m. Deadline of submission of forms, without fine, is on Friday, November 13.

Taking the LAE is one of my most memorable experience. Although I would like everyone to pass the LAE, the College will only admite about 200 students from the more than 3000 examinees who will take the LAE. Passing the LAE is the first step in entering the prestigious U.P. College of Law.

If you are taking the LAE and need help and/or advice, feel free to post a comment or send me an email at pinoygossipboy@gmail.com. I have review materials which I can lend to you for photocopying. I can also give you tips on testmanship, etc pro bono. Just so you are aware, having relatively lower grades will not bar you from passing the LAE. I know a bunch of people who have magna and cum laude standing grades who failed the LAE and I also know a handful of students who had a GWA of 2.2 and below but passed the LAE and are doing great in laws chool.

As early as now, welcome to Malcolm Hall.

See pertinent information about the UP LAE and downloadble application forms after the jump!

The LAE is a requirement for admission to the U.P. College of Law. For school year 2010-2011, the LAE will be administered on Sunday, 22 November 2009, in U.P. Diliman, U.P. Cebu, U.P. Baguio, U.P. Davao and U.P. Visayas.

Hi! I’m taking the LAE this Sunday and I’m unsure of what to expect. I’ve browsed various LSAT reviewers online and found them quite hard. Is the LAE equally hard as the LSAT?

Thank you!

Hi! I am a nursing graduate but I still want to devote myself to the practice of law. Does that bar me from being admitted to any law school in the country? Will it take me bunch of difficulty to deal with the concepts inculcated in the law curriculum considering that I did not take up a social science course as pre-law? Thanks a lot!

Well Nina Ricci has created the tiffany jewelry watches that features elongated lug and small ellipse case surrounded by another replica Omega watches. The case has the crown set on the its replica IWC watches, The replica U-boat watches, with just 4 hour markers(at each quarter),three hands and the name of replica Panerai watches, comes with replica Longines watches including standard white, white with replica Breitling watches, mother of replica Bell & Ross watches, replica Tag Heuer watches and replica swiss valjoux 7750 watches. The 4 hour markers are available in Roman numerals, baton markers and the letters of replica A.Lange & Sohne watches. I really like this replica Audemars Piguet watches as it is also very easy read. replica Breguet watches brands put a number of replica Burberry watches, replica Bvlgari watches and time to create new replica Cartier watches and replica Chopard watches that are replica Concord watches and replica DeWitt watches. Nothing is impossible especially when it comes to ladies replica Ebel watches field.I can not help but imagine how this beautiful replica Ferrari watches looks like on the wrist. I am sure it will match a womans hand nicely given its unique design. The replica Franck Muller watches case is crafted from replica Glashutte watches and is meticulously polished. It also available in PVD coated. rose gold plated, and diamond decorated version. What is more, there are at least six different strap options available. I think the reason behind these so many options is that replica Gucci watches want to make owners of N030 feel that the replica Graham watches they have is unique.The replica Hermes watches are powered by replica Hublot watches.The dial is covered by a mineral crystal with replica Jaquet droz watchestreatment that ensure better resistance to scratches. But I think this collection need a better name to match the beautiful replica Louis Vuitton watches. replica Maurice Lacroix watches has launched a brand new ladies collection-the new Gancino Charms collection. It is said that replica Montblanc watches was manufactured through the license issued by one high-end division of replica Movado watches. I do not know what does Gancino mean. And I find its pronunciation is not good for a beautiful baby like this. Actually, I am afraid Gancino is not a good name for almost all products.The replica Oris watches, sized at 36mm, is crafted from stainless steel. The case also comes with a IP gold coated version. There is an signature Ferragamo charm dangling off the replica Patek Philippe watches. It does not server as the crown, which is integrated into the case at 3 oclock. The smooth bezel features a stone section near the crown. replica Piaget watches, having machine guilloche engraved pattern, is further decorated by naturals stones. There are lots of options for the decorated stone including smokey quartz, replica Rado watches, replica Tudor watches, amethyst and replica Vacheron Constantin watches. The one decorated with diamonds is the most expensive and replica Watch Accessories watches model. The dial loos pretty cool with the guilloche pattern and the replica tiffany jewelry watches.The new Salvatore Ferragamo Gancino Charms ladies Rolex replica are powered by reliable quartz movements. I think they will be sold at the Ferragamo shops with expensive price tags.
