I'm proud to be a Sebastinian!This is a clear indication that the popularity of one's school can no longer be regarded as a guaranty for success. Thank God! I regret for having chosen another institution for law school though.

(will take the Bar next year) i'll have to admit i feel inferior sometimes when in the midst of those more "famous" law schools students before. pero i know na Baste has a very good law school since Dean Riano's term. in fact, this is not the first time na may nag top 10 within the last 5 years. pero sa mga di nakakaalam, dami din nakakapasa from Baste, di nga lang nasa top 10 lagi.
