I'm the same right now - not sure how much is sinking in!

Dr Ice

Mod. Pls do not discus examiners here

Anyway, would someone be kind enough to send me an up-to-date grid for Tort please.

Thanks.

Hi, I was wondering if anybody could give me some guidance on the common question that appears on the EU paper as

"How have the principles or equivalence and practical possibility been developed by the union judicature to provide clear guidance for national courts on how they should deal with breaches of EU law".

I'm struggle with how to go about answering that question it is arises - any pointers would be great!

I'd also love an answer to this is anyone has any idea - the manual I'm using only has a paragraph on the principle of equivalence and it doesn't mention practical possibility either!

I have a list of bankers. You could answer at least 3 on every paper back 7 or 8 years with it if I remember rightly. Hitting the sack now but will PM in the morning!

That’s great, thanks so much!

Anyone fancy helping a brutha out and letting me know what topics you're covering for Company?

I actually work in a Company law-related job so it would be terribly embarrassing not to pass this one .....




....but not terribly unlikely...

Guys, apologies. Went to look for the EU notes this morning and I think I must have given them away to somebody

So sorry about that but best of luck for the exams!

Hi, would you mind sending it on to me? I can give you sample answers, exam grids and past papers and reports for EU, Criminal, Property and Company if they're any help to you.

Tippgal93

Hi all - does anybody have an up to date exam grid for criminal and equity. I would be super grateful! I have up to date ones for Tort and Contract in exchange!

Thanks a mill.

Hi, does anyone know what came up on the EU paper in October 2016?

The new examiner seems to avoid freedom of establishment, services and capital (pretty thin on Competition too) so I'm wondering if I should bother squeezing them in at this stage.

Constitutional- Does anyone have tips on what to cover for the case note Q?

March 16 he didnt bring up services or establishment either he brought up free movement of goods.. i'm not sure whether to cover services either.. he seems to stick to the same topics in his papers

How do you know the difference between a recreational user and a visitor?

Henderson is the owner of Geddon, 100 acres of land which legend says contains the remains
of a pre-historic settlement buried deep underground. As the hype concerning the alleged
Mayan end of the world in 2012 prophecy begins to take hold, many have come to believe that
Geddon is the one place which will provide safety on the fateful days to come and that if there
is any hope of survival, it is to be on the sacred ground of Geddon.
As a result many people have begun to gather close to Geddon in trailers, tents and caravans
and they are causing an obstruction on the surrounding roads. To ease this, Henderson has
begun to allow people enter Geddon but has erected notices that they do so at their own risk.
The numbers of visitors has risen dramatically and Henderson notices that they have re-opened
a dormant well to provide drinking water for themselves. Henderson is aware that the well
was closed as it was near collapse, but is of the view that it is of no concern to him as they are
staying on his land for free. In addition, he then posted notices around the well, stating that
people drank the water at their own risk and that there was no guarantee that it was free from
contamination.
Henderson has now also begun going to Geddon daily, seeking a voluntary, ex gratia payment
from those present in recognition of his generosity. If people refuse, he simply moves on.
One day, a large group are gathered around the well. Some are there to get water, while
others are engaged in a ceremony in preparation for December 21, 2012. Suddenly the well
collapses and a number of people are injured.
Advise Henderson as to any potential liability in tort that he may owe those injured in these
events

For this question i presume it is a visitor and did not take reasonable care. While he put up signs he should have maybe fenced it off?

Probably a really random question but is it absolutely necessary to underline case names in the exam? I know some people say you should but I hate doing it and was wondering could I get away with not doing it?

You don't have to, I certainly didn't for Tort and passed.

It won't get you any marks but, they way I see it anyway, if it's make your paper that little bit easier to mark then it might just work to your favour in a 'benefit of the doubt' scenario where you're sitting between 49 & 50.

You would get away with it fine. The underlining is just to differentiate and highlight them to the examiner so they're harder to miss and will be spotted on the first skim read before they go in to reading the answers properly.

SM1803

for eu is it ok to just learn one name for the cases?

Robbie25808

I'll check the laptop later. But, it's quite an easy area in company law. So worst case you could build one .....

I would say be careful with property, the examiner has said it a good few times in the reports that she has asked students to underline and highlight cases in previous reports and they have failed to do so! just a heads up
