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

Just wondering does anyone have an updated grid for criminal?

Any tips for doing criminal?

Does anyone have a grid for criminal and property they could spare? Thanks

Is it possible to leave out topics for criminal law? According to the grid most things come up every year...

I wouldn’t leave anything out personally because I likes numerous issues in problem questions! You can make some educated guesses going by the grids but I think you should know the basics of everything! Personal opinion!

If I had a choice to leave out studying 1 between Mortgages, Family Property, and Licenses and Right of Residence, which should I leave out?

How many topics do you already have done? :pac: I never looked at entire section on Landlord and Tenant Law, Family Property (except in the context of inheritance) nor Mortgages and I passed Property Law twice. Property is very predictable, I wouldn't waste your time with loads of backup topics. So by my logic there, all of them as I didn't study any of them but I knew the topics that come up all the time. Not even sure if I did right of residence, I think I learned it with co-ownership?

This is what I'll be covering for property, let me know if I should leave anything out!

Co-ownership; Succession; Adverse Possession; Easements; Landlord and Tenant; Family Property; Mortgages

I would cover finding as well. Comes up quite a bit and it’s very easy to learn

Does anyone have an up to date Criminal exam grid?

Would love one too if anyone has one to send

What is the general consensus on the Company exam, re volume & difficulty? Could I do it along with say Constitutional, and not be completely swamped?

Very silly question maybe 🀷ðŸ»*♀️ is blackhall only once a year? September?? I find any information hard to get on law society. So if u finish FE1s in October u are still waiting till following Sept till u start? And does this include new hybrid ppc1 course?
I've only joined in the middle of FE1s, find the information here very good, straight to the point and supportive so well done to those who contribute ðŸ‘ðŸ‘

Yes if you finish your FE1s this October you’ll have to wait till next September too begin PPC1.

Re the Hybrid, info on the Law Society website indicates that the deadline for applications is around the time of the October exams. Not sure if you could apply with exams still pending.

What topics would people recommend for equity? I'm currently going with Charitable Trusts, Constructive Trusts, Express Trusts, Mareva, Interlocutory, quia timet, DMC and wondering if there's more I should be covering or even ways of whittling down the topics with those?

I was told that if you are doing your last exam in October there will still be time to apply for the Hybrid that starts in December if you pass the exam in October. You can’t apply for hybrid until you have passed all 8.

They supposedly open up applications again after the Oct deadline

Just reading there and I think it is usually open 14 days after the October sitting

It's not the worst of exams. Being able to bring in the legislation is a huge plus. I actually did it with constitutional as well and it was grand.

This is good to hear, thank you! :-)

Does anybody have an updated criminal grid by any chance?

does anyone have constitutional manual, exam grids, exam reports and sample answers they would be willing to sell me? Looking for emailed version if possible.

If anyone has a criminal grid that would be great. I have Contract & Property grids, and Tort Samples in PDF form I can swap
