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

So for Tort I'm covering:

DOC/SOC
Causation/Remoteness
Occupiers Liability
Products Liability
Defamation
Trespass to Person
Nuisance/Rylands
Passing Off

What else should I be covering? I know that's probably not enough but I'd almost take my chances at this stage...

Anyone have an up-to-date grid for EU?

Anyone hear from law soc about the exam numbers etc? Is it usually this late??

Can anyone tell me what came up in 2018 March for Contract?

Response to L124, I called them today, they said they would be out next week and they confirmed that they got my application

Thank you! Procrastinating by worrying.

Anyone willing to share which topics they're focusing on for constitutional??

Are there any topics (other than constitutional interpretation) which are safe to cut out?? Or would I be totally misguided leaving anything out (1st time fe1 sitter)

Hey everyone! Hope you’re all not too stressed approaching exams... (even though I am lol). I’m thinking it’s time to put a few reasonable predictions for papers... I need to start cutting and refining chapters I’m studying. Anyone have any thoughts on essay type qs for either contract,equity criminal?? I can share info re property as the new examiner was my undergraduate lecturer, he lives for mortgages and only recently wrote a book on JM so expect a probelm q or reform essay on mortgages. Succession and AP are certs as usual. Easements will definitely show and probably the acquisition Nd extinguishment of them.. I’m aware extinguishment doesn’t have much emphasis in the manual so have a look at a book/google. Family property, freehold estates & co-ownership also pretty likely.

Could the chapter Formal and Evidentary Requirements be left out in contract?

I’d briefly go through it!

I have a quick question on constitutional that's been bothering me, could anyone give a hand?

How do you know whether to apply the non-delegation doctrine or ultra vires? Do you just mention the presumption of constitutionality and the double construction rule, and say it could go either way for every question, but acknowledge the preference for a constitutional reading (which would result in ultra vires)?

From the case law I always find it difficult to see the reasoning behind how some cases were read as UV whilst others applied the non-delegation doctrine. I'm not confident I'd know which route to go in an exam, especially with a strict time limit. I have plenty to say about both, but am never sure which to apply...

What could I leave out of EU AND EQUITY?

Thank you in advance... in a panic trying to cover everything

Would really like to know this too... I was told equity would be one of the easier ones but there seems to be so much in it.

Yes anyone got any hints for equity, contract or company?

I can't grasp constructive trusts at all!! Can anyone try help me out with on overview of the chapter? Please!

It can be asked in 3 ways
- The new model constructive trust EQ
- Liability of strangers EQ
- Fiduciary relationship (likely a PQ or could be a write all you know EQ)

I just started it last night but I don't think you need to read all the chapter, just focus on those areas I think??

Ok thank you! Within fiduciary relationships do I look at special bribes, company directors and all that? or is that another section?

Cover interpretation, definitely! Its useful to just add into a question. Probably okay to leave out trial in due course/liberty.
National emergency - know the basics, I think its appeared as part of a pq before and not a whole lot to it other than what's in the constitution??

Do you think it's safe to leave out trial in due course of law? It didn't appear on the March 2018 appear, and is frequent enough? I have already studied it anyway!
