The Bar - Bar Exam News

Its 2009 and we all know how time flies so, as early as now, we are suggesting of forming a bar committee. The 2009 BAR EXAMS will be sooner than we expected especially for people who will be taking the exams, so why not prepare as early as possible? If you approve of this plan, please signify your intentions in this thread in the forums http://www.batasnatin.com/ANNOUNCEMENTS/53-Materials-preparation-for-the-bar-exams.html#53 . We are also currently looking for forum moderators, those interested please signify your intention in the same thread.

Thanks,
