Terms of Service
Vocatus is a free study tool for Philippine bar examinees. Using it means you agree to the terms below — written in plain language, because you have enough legalese to review already.
Last updated 9 July 2026.
What Vocatus is
Vocatus lets you practice past Philippine Bar examination questions, in relaxed or timed mode, and compare your work against original suggested answers. It is free to use, with or without an account; signing in simply lets you save your attempts and track your progress.
A study aid, not legal advice
Everything on Vocatus — questions, suggested answers, and any feedback — is study material for exam preparation. It is not legal advice, and using the app creates no lawyer-client relationship with anyone. If you need advice on a real matter, consult a lawyer.
About the suggested answers
Suggested answers are original model answers commissioned for Vocatus, many drafted with the help of AI and reviewed for this purpose. They are one sound way to answer — not the official answer key, and not a guarantee of how examiners would grade. The law also changes; an answer correct for its exam year may read differently under later statutes or rulings. Spot a mistake? Tell us and we'll fix it.
Your account
You sign in with Google, and you're responsible for what happens under your account. Keep it yours — don't share it or use someone else's. You can stop using Vocatus anytime and ask us to delete your account and attempts (see the Privacy page).
Fair use of the app
Vocatus is for personal study. Please don't:
- copy, scrape, or republish the answer bank, in bulk or for a fee — the suggested answers are original works owned by Vocatus (quoting a few in class or a study group is fine);
- probe, overload, or interfere with the service, or try to access other users' data;
- use the app for anything unlawful.
We may suspend accounts that abuse the service. The past bar questions themselves are public documents of the Supreme Court.
Your answers stay yours
Anything you write in practice belongs to you. You give us only the permission needed to store it and show it back to you. We don't publish or share it — see the Privacy page for the full picture.
Affiliate links
The Bar Passer Picks section contains clearly-labeled affiliate links. If you buy through one, the shop may pay us a small commission at no extra cost to you. Those shops are third parties with their own terms; we don't operate them.
Free, as-is, and honest about it
Vocatus is provided free and "as is", without warranties of any kind — including that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that any material is complete or current. Practicing here does not guarantee passing the bar (we wish). To the fullest extent the law allows, Vocatus and its maker are not liable for damages arising from your use of the app; if liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to the amount you paid us — which, for a free service, is nothing. We may change, pause, or discontinue features (or the service) at any time.
Changes to these terms
If we change these terms in any meaningful way — for example, when the AI examiner launches — we'll update this page and the date above. Continuing to use Vocatus after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, and any dispute belongs to the proper courts of the Philippines.
