FE1 Exam Thread (Read 1st post!) NOTICE: YOU MAY SWAP EXAM GRIDS

RandolphEsq

Equity tomorrow. What are people predicting/hoping for with injunctions. I would like some sort of essay on Campus Oil principles and deviation from them or an essay on Anton Piller, Marevas.

If you handed it on deadline day or thereabouts they probably won't send one out for another few weeks.. I remember one sitting I never got an acknowledgement letter just the letter a few weeks before the exam with exam number etc. Don't panic yet

I've received mine. Last year I sent mine off the 2 days before the deadline and received no letter of acknowledgement. When everyone else was getting their letters of acknowledgement and I didn't, I began to really worry. I rang them up for peace of mind and they were able to tell me over the phone that I was registered. I'd ring them up and ask to be put though to the FE1 section, just to put it out of your mind. I do remember they were very hard to get hold of.

I know this question has been asked before but I'm not sure the response. Can I tab my EU legislation? Will make life easier in the exam...

numbnuts78

Got through to them. They have my application. Still sending out the acknowledgments. They said it would be Friday at the latest.

You can tab the legislation, just no writing

Just a very random quick question on criminal law - does property offences (theft, robbery, deception) ever come up as an essay question or is it just dotted all round the paper in short snippets of problem questions ...

Prob a silly question, just want to be sure I'm covering it within reason

Anyone have any inclings as to particular topics that might be due to come up in equity? Obviously studying the majority of the course but if anyone has any tips..

Hey everyone!

What's everyone's positions with being set for the exams? I hope I am not the only one who has yet to even get through even half of the revision, nevermind learning everything off!! Will need a miracle to get me through these dreaded exams yet again!!

Hey guys,

My notes on ROT clauses are a little out of date. Could anyone explain what the current law is regarding the registration of ROT clauses. Is it still the case that 2 need to be reg'd and 2 don't?

Cheers!!!

I'm still just writing out notes at the moment...!

How many topics are people studying for EU? I'm looking at 15 at the moment but find the subject dreadfully boring so hoping to cut it down somewhat. Any predictions for EU?

Also, I've heard that Company and Tort are regarded as the two most demanding subjects volume-wise but I don't find this to be the case? Im doing 12 topics for Tort and 13 for Company. Wondering if I'm doing something wrong...

So far I have done notes for:

Competition
Direct and indirect effect
Preliminary Reference
Infringement procedures
Judicial standing
Free movement of goods
Citenzship
Fundamental rights

Still have to do case notes and maybe just doing one more topic....

I was hoping to get away with that.. any suggestions?

annmc882

I don't feel on my own so ... Still loads of notes to do... Roll on the 15th March

12 for tort seems on low side ?

Guys, I know these exams can be a struggle and there seems to be a mountain of stuff to learn for everything but I definitely think it's a mistake to be cutting out too much. The examiners have consistently mentioned in the reports that people are underprepared and most people who fail do so because they can't answer a fifth question. There has been a trend of mixing topics in questions so you really have to know everything. I get that there's a lot to learn but I think people are taking a risk in trying to cut down too much. You can get lucky; I definitely did with Company, but I covered all or almost all topics on the syllabus for the other 6 I passed. There's boring parts to all of them but they'll be a lot more boring the second time around.

Edit: Apologies if this comes across a little harsh

I definitely was in that position! My first three questions were answered perfectly, fourth was an ok question but I know my fifth question in the two exams I failed I was only giving the examiner what I knew and not answering the question because I had only learned the broad outline of the topics... it might've took one more day to learn them off but definitely would've been worth it for not having to face back into the same subjects again this time around!

Here's my two cents with four behind me: go through the past papers with your topics. If you can answer at least 6 of 8 in each FE-1 going back the years then you're likely to get your 5 on the day. Besides you really want to have 6 of 8 on the day, having some choice is a huge stress remover right at the start of the exam.
