I would say they will arrange the next sitting as soon as possible

ihatethesea · 12-03-2020 03:46PM

Sorry for change of tone, i'm ploughing on with my bottle of hand sanitizer at the ready haha!

Does anybody have simplified condensed EU notes they would be willing to share, i'm trying to cram but my manual is shocking! I have papers/reports if anyone is stuck?

spygirl · 12-03-2020 03:47PM

If they couldn't reschedule in time for Blackhall, they would have to just give a pass to those affected.

They will organise in time to avoid such a situation. My two cents anyway

EAL2019 · 12-03-2020 03:47PM

Other people have confirmed already but this is the email I received.

Extra sitting will be in time for PPC 2020 subject to the coronavirus situation allowing.

Emmaslaw17 · 12-03-2020 03:51PM

Outraged at the law society....A doctor just sent me this

The preparation/ anticipation is horrendous in the hospital seems a lot more serious than even the media are putting out. Do your own thing but avoid gyms/ crowds and tell your parents to completey limit any social contact and stay at home.'

I won't be doing any more exams. It's more serious than losing money on a hotel... Think of everyone or we could end up like Italy

Is a county council a state authority? I said it was for adverse possession q

No a county council isn't a state authority. It's a bit mean because they're always the ones put in to see if you knew. I'm sure you wouldn't lose loads of marks for it. Provided your answer on the basis it was, was correct.

CiaranS93 · 12-03-2020 04:15PM

I've just made the decision not to sit. Hopefully another sitting before PPC 2020 intake. For those on the fence, health is the most important thing. Also I have asthma which has effect d my decision. Best of luck anyone doing it

Thanks. Angry with myself. My 4 other answers were brilliant.

I haven't been able to get any study done today due to worrying about whether I should do them or not. I absolutely hate that they have given the choice, either everyone does them or no one does them.

I'm completely put off now and tbh feeling fairly upset about the whole thing

Vegetarian2017 · 12-03-2020 04:33PM

Same. I think il be giving tomorrow a miss, I cannot concentrate with the current events. Really frustrated.

I completely agree.
I was stuck already for time for EU and lost hours not knowing, and still now can’t concentrate as I haven’t my mind made up completely.

I feel like a cop out if I don’t sit them but then I feel like I’m part of the problem if I do

I feel for anyone in this position. I have no idea how I would cope with trying to do an exam the day after this.
If you are set on doing the exam, stay off this for tonight and get the head into it.
Study has been hit but it is still not beyond you to get it back.

For me, decided not to sit on Monday. I could well be panicking but would prefer to over react rather than under react. I will just get it next time.
raging as missed tort by one point last sitting and am well ready for it this time. I just can't take the chance I carry something home.
New figures of infected made the decision an easy one for me.

If it is not contained we are Italy in two weeks time. Being asked to stay away from mass gatherings, so essentially take responsibility for everyone. Finding it very hard to ignore that. My job is making the decision this evening if we are open or going remote working. Hoping for remote working as no wages otherwise. The joys.

12-03-2020 04:45PM

Tort

Can someone please list the dunne principles re medical negligence?

I have my manual and another book and notes online and they all have a different amount! I have the general consensus of it but just want to double check that I am not leaving anything out

z6vm1dobfnca3x · 12-03-2020 04:54PM

What did people think of today's Property paper?

My topics came up but the questions were formatted and phrased in a way I haven't seen before.

I knew my stuff but I felt very stretched for time.

From my understanding - The principle is that a medical professional acts negligently when they do something that no other medical professional of equal skill or standing would have done.

This allows for inherent defects in medical practices to be held as negligent.

Cottstain v Maguire - Failure to train someone in replacing a breathing tube was considered an inherent defect.

Great post and a totally sensible and responsible way of looking at this. Getting your last FE1 won't matter much if infrastructure ends up collapsing because we as a society failed to take proper precautions when we had the opportunity to do so.

Jeremiah25 · 12-03-2020 05:11PM

Turnout for tomorrow should be interesting...

Reya10 · 12-03-2020 05:14PM

Does anyone know what happens if we don’t reply to the law society email? Or if we tell them we’re sitting and then decide later on not to? I’m still so torn this is a joke

I'm in the same position as you, wondering if we need to reply before they close at 5pm

I don’t know - I haven’t replied either.

I’m trying to study but still haven’t made up my mind. Horrible horrible situation to put us in

I've been trying to study as well but feel like I haven't take anything in because I've been worrying about what to do

I’m the exact same- nothing going in whatsoever and losing precious time

spygirl · 12-03-2020 05:23PM

There will be no panic if you don't respond this evening. Very unfair they left the decision to students.
Should have just led from the front and been done with it.

12-03-2020 05:26PM

its crazy these exams are going ahead.The public and University libraries have closed, DCU summer exams have been replaced with alternative assessments, and yet here we are with exams going ahead!

Thank you! I have that, was unsure as to whether we needed to go through each point in the Dunne principles step by step in an exam question

If it comes up as an essay question I'll be avoiding the crap out of it. Hoping it's combined with another.

But knowing the steps in Dunnes would be the best bet for an essay, then elaborating on the other requirements set forth in following case law.

milktray22 · 12-03-2020 05:56PM

Stupid question and apologies in advance, but if you sit exam tomorrow and you fail, will law society let you sit the additional exam (whenever that my be) before October?
