Six lawyers who successfully hurdled the 2017 bar examination are products of the Palawan State University School of Law.
The new lawyers are Atty. Arlando G. Arlando, Atty. Jephraim Baguyo, Atty. Margarita Concepcion A. Nalus, Atty. Christopher Joselle C. Molato, Atty Rizza Mea L. Borja, and Atty

In a press conference, four of these newly passed lawyers shared their preparations and the hardships they have been through during the examinations.
Atty. Baguyo, a graduate of BS Accountancy, is also a real estate appraiser and broker, while Atty. Arlando is a certified public accountant. Both of them applied in the Public Attorney’s Office (PAO) and signified their willingness to help the public.
Atty. Borja is also a CPA, while Atty. Nalus is a registered nurse.
Last year, PSU School of Law has a passing rate of 100%. This year, out of 12 examinees,
only half of them made it.
