QUESTIONS ON UP LAE


It's November already, and the UP LAE is only 2-3 weeks away. I'm not sure if the tips I provided in my previous post (http://onetitleonesubject.blogspot.com/2013/10/for-those-taking-up-lae-exam-tips.html) helped in giving you an idea of what to expect in the exam. But if you have questions on particular parts of the exam that you weren't able to find in the tips, feel free to comment your questions, and I'll try my best to answer it based on what I remember from the exam.

This year, the UP Law Aptitude Exam will be administered on November 24, 2013 (Sunday) in U.P. Diliman(for Luzon applicants), U.P. Cebu(for Visayas applicants), and U.P. Davao(for Mindanao applicants). Good luck to all of you!
