F. Laurena, one of his companions, says that Mabini usually went barefoot wearing a handkerchief around his head as a hat. Of course, he had an outstanding mental capacity obtaining such high grades. He was well-known for his startling memory and he never complained about the length of the lessons assigned by Fr. Malabanan. He could even recite them by heart to the last word. In spite of barely seeing the books until shortly before class, he never missed to know the day's lesson.
As he reached his fourth year of secondary education, he went to the Colegio de San Juan de Letran. Mabini was outstanding in Mathematics and chose English over French. He received a grade of Sobresaliente which is equivalent to excellent. However, he stopped his studies the following year. Mabini clearly states: "The following year (1882) I returned to my town, because of my poor parents were not able to defray my further instruction and I spent two years with my old professor then in the town of Bauan in the same province, as an auxillary teacher, receiving a small salary. At this time my mother died.""3 .
After two years he went back to Manila and enrolled in University of Santo Tomas to continue his fifth year of secondary studies and to get a Bachelor's degree. Again, he attained satisfactory grades though he did not receive the corresponding degree of Bachiller en Artes because of his incapacity to pay the required examination fees. .
The next school year, 1885-1886, Mabini continued taking up the preparatory courses of the Law curriculum. Astoundingly, he finished the course with the grade of sobresaliente. Then again, he came back to Batangas to earn the right money he needs for the examination. He settled in Lipa and worked in the school of Sebastian Virrey. Virrey had reported that "Mabini was so fa1-3ithful to me that when I was absent from home he doubled his work, so that his departure caused me no little distress The most notable thing he did, while under my charge, was a welcome speech in honor of Fr.
