As far as I can remember, my psych prof said that shades of orange (or chromatic yellow, like yellow pads) boost our brain functions when studying. So, I think that explains why we absorb more details from a yellow paper hehe.

[@isawnisa]

+Rapz Maluto thanks for that Unzel! 😉 sobrang effective talaga. :)

[@titaindayvlog]

I agree with investing on ipad. During my first sem, i used to print cases and photocopy scra and it so bulky that i have to put it in a separate bag. Aside from the cost of printings, well now I am using my Ipad and i am able to save money. I just make sure that I leave the house with fully charged ipad and bring along a powerbank. :)

[@Legal_Eagle_Ashutosh]

Which iPad version do you recommend? Is 9 gen good?

[@elizabethrobles5376]

So it's true. Only a law student can feel the struggles of another law student. I feel you teh. 2nd year law student here :) i subscribed to your channel :) thumbs up!

[@larissajoygolingay1915]

Hi Atty! Thanks to ate Tippy I'm here so happy I've learned more. God bless po!

Ang ganda ng hair mo dito Isai! :D Thanks talaga for this video. You never fail to guide aspiring law students, like me!

[@isawnisa]

Napressure naman ako dun sa hair comment kasi magpapastraight na ako ng buhok. Haha. But thanks Renkz93! Ito na ata muna, sa ngayon, ang public service na maibibigay ko. Masaya akong nakakatulong :)

[@renkz93]

Isai, I have a question pala para sa iinterviewhin mo. Pa ask lang if how long did he/she finish law school considering that he/she is working full time. Kasi sabi ng boss ko sa work, it took her 5 years to finish instead of 4 because of the work schedule. Thanks so much! Much love pala from Iloilo. :D

[@isawnisa]

+renkz93 usually, lalo pag working students. 5 yrs though I know someone na 4yrs lang siya and she worked for the nbi. We're not close tho, kaya nahihiya akong magapproach. Hahaa

[@ronoelbacarisas2380]

Hi isai!! Your videos were really helpful, especially that I am feeling really anxious to enter law school. I always watch your videos when I am driving, listening to your advices and tips. Can you be my mentor please? I am a single mom, incoming freshman in one of the top law school. I need guidance from a person like you. You are very inspiring. God bless! Hoping to hear from you. 😊💕

[@aaronlance3099]

Hi Ate Isai, thank you very much for making this video. It really helps me alot to make my law school less difficult. Sobrang nakaka relate ako sa recording ng lecture. Lagi ko iyan ginagawa kahit bawal mag record sa PFR class. Haha Gumagawa ako ng way para maka record kasi mas madaling maintindihan yung mga difficult topics kapag na e explain ng mabuti ng professor mo. Haha. Btw, Congratulations po for passing the bar ate isai. :D

[@isawnisa]

Hi RJ, meron sa Rex Bookstore, Central or National Bookstore. Thank you for your prayer! :)

[@euniciamayeruiz]

Ate isai how do you color code your highlighters for cases/notes/books? Huhu paturo po. 😭

[@johnyboyxyz5719]

Hi Isai. Thanks for this, a very big help. Can you suggest the best reading materials/topics aside from the law books that we'll be soon purchasing? Like local or foreign politics? How our government works? Terminologies to learn? Are these important preparations as well? Thanks!

[@jinjujhung4189]

Hi Isai! Thank you for the super helpful tips :) Could you do a video on how you avoided burn out in law school? Thank you

[@isawnisa]

+Hope Jhung Hi Hope! Thank you for your video request! I'll take note of that 😉👍

[@MsNotaBene]

My favourite is the capsule pencil case. Bumili talaga ako. After watching this. Haha

[@xtinalvaran4201]

Hello, i am glad we have the same look of civil law codal. When my judge borrowed it and said "wow hirap na hirap un libro mo sayo" i asked myself if what i did like posting colorful notes & markers were unusual. Is it a nega remark or what? But this vlog made me realized that it's normal for us to do it. Maybe nun panahon ng judge ko di uso ang post its and highlighters hahaha... Joke! Thanks atty.! #IamALawyertobe

[@tamarynmina8270]

thanks for the video! excited ako mag-law school :)

You are inspirational, Atty. Rivera. I am a full time public school teacher and wishes to pursue law school. But the nearest law school in my workplace is san beda alabang, a prestigious school, which I cannot afford financially. I'd have to quit my full time job and find jobs near the school if ever. I dunno if ARELLANO U is affordable. Please enlighten me. Thank you.

[@kylechristianmanejero5738]

Hi po Ate Isai! Isa akong Filipino student dito sa Turkey at political science yung course ko. It's been a year na din na parati kong iniisip mag law school pagkatapos ko mag aral dito. Hingi naman po ako advice sa yo kung ano pwede gawin ba, ano yung qualifications kung pinoy student nag aral sa labas ng pinas kasi yung course ko ibang language of instruction at hindi sa english. Taga Iloilo po ako at ito yung pangarap ko na one day gusto ko matupad. Yung makapaglingkod sa bayan at matulungan na din pamilya ko. Salamat at God bless po! :)

[@isawnisa]

Hi KC! You can search the specifics online, I'm not too sure ngayon eh. Anyway, something na kailangan is that you've finished units in English, Social Science and Rizal. :) I think you can take those before you go into law school. Parang nagbago na kasi ata yung patakaran ngayon. Before kasi, you can take those incomplete units while you're in law school but now, di na ata. You must finish them before entering law school. :)

[@kyleinfinite7028]

Hello po ate isai. Would you recommend po ang mga bagong ipad ngayon in replacing laptops? Or mas mabuti po ba to invest first in laptop then pag nakaipon na tsaka na mag tatablet/ipad? Thank you po sa pagsagot 😀
