I know its easier said than done but I sat 4 for the first time in October and was in yer exact position and couldn't stop crying in the run up to it because i was so stressed. I'm definitely calmer now with 4 under my belt but I promise that half the anxiety is just the fear of the unknown and the build up to them. Someone said to me before my first sitting, think of every single trainee you know - they all passed these at some point, so why can't you?

Although Davis followed and held the accused did not have a defence of provocation because there was no objective act of provocation (accused's girlfriend wouldn't account for where she had been). The CoA said obiter that this casts a shadow of doubt onto the test but for now it's considered to be subjective. That's my understanding anyway!

From my notes it seems really arbitrary, like there's no clear distinction as to why the court would choose one charge or another.

For example would it change how a case like R v Aitken (1992) would have been decided if today? Any help on the area of consent and assault would be great!
