Philippine Bar Examinations

Drill the law.
Then check my work.

A review tool for the Bar where every item — all 415 of them — carries the provision or the case it came from, so you can verify it against the codal. That's not decoration. It's the point.

Where the answer moved

What changed

The fastest way to fail a question you actually know is to answer it with the rule you were taught. Kodigo tracks 51 provisions where the answer moved — old rule, current rule, effectivity date, citation. Three of them:

RemedialJurisdictional amounts30 July 2021
Was
MTC: civil actions ≤ ₱300,000 (₱400,000 in Metro Manila); real actions with assessed value ≤ ₱20,000 (₱50,000 in Metro Manila).
Is now
MTC: civil actions where the demand ≤ ₱2,000,000; real actions where the assessed value ≤ ₱400,000. The Metro Manila distinction is gone. — R.A. No. 11576
Civil LawPsychological incapacity11 May 2021
Was
Republic v. Molina: a medical condition, requiring expert psychiatric testimony, proven by preponderance of evidence.
Is now
A legal, not medical, concept. No expert required — ordinary witnesses suffice. Quantum: clear and convincing evidence. — Tan-Andal v. Andal
EthicsThe CPRA replaced the CPR30 May 2023
Was
1988 Code of Professional Responsibility — 22 canons, 77 rules. The old Lawyer's Oath.
Is now
Six canons: Independence, Propriety, Fidelity, Competence and Diligence, Equality, Accountability. If your reviewer cites "Canon 15, Rule 15.03", it is quoting a dead code. — A.M. No. 22-09-01-SC
Read this before you rely on any of it

What this isn't

A review tool that oversells itself is worse than no tool, because you'll find out where the gaps were in September.

This is a study aid, not authority, and not legal advice. Every item cites its provision or case precisely so you can check it — and you should. When Kodigo and the codal disagree, the codal is right and Kodigo is wrong.
Multiple choice is not a bar review. The Bar is twenty essays per subject in four hours — twelve minutes a question, with no menu of four choices to jog you. The drill finds your holes; the flashcards close them; the essays prove you can produce the rule cold and apply it to facts.
Verify the schedule. Content is written against the coverage announced by the Office of the Bar Chairperson — law and jurisprudence in force as of 30 June 2025. Bulletins get amended. Confirm at sc.judiciary.gov.ph.
