I got an exemption for 2 exams I had passed before the magic 3 rule was taken away and they're not there now when I go in. Maybe contact them just in case!!

Hi there. I also wrote two exams out of three. They said that it was decided at the meeting. In addition, we were told to write an essay on a free topic on Monday, using tips https://essaydragon.com/blog/attention-grabbers.

I just registered for Constitution and got the 8th Oct as the date ? I thought it was the 14th Oct? ! Did anyone else get the same?

I registered for Constitution as well and it said the 6th. I reckon that was just a default setting on it because the time given for the exam was 12am to 12am.

Finally able to apply there. Signed up for the exams no bother, it didn't ask me to upload proof of my degree this time, just my ID - maybe that's just when you do your first.

Is anyone else still getting the below message when you try to apply for the October sitting:

This form is not available to you. If you believe you should have access to this application form, please contact the FE-1 Section

I was getting this so I emailed them...no reply but I just went onto the site to have another go and was able to sign up for the exams. Every exam was dated October 6th though?

hnum0 · 09-09-2020 05:08PM

Anyone have any tips on how to talk to someone at the law society? I'm out of the country and need to speak with someone about some difficulties with the exams. I emailed them over a week ago, then followed up on Monday, and have not yet been able to get a response. Every time I call it just goes straight to voicemail. Feeling really frustrated

I would also add share/share transfer and minority shareholder protection to this list! I think these may be due a run

Debarramike137 · 09-09-2020 06:40PM

steveeq · 09-09-2020 09:13PM

Many thanks.

First time sitting the fe1s and when I go to register I am being asked for some proof of completing my degree so I can be excluded from the entrance exam, does anybody know if they need transcripts or a copy of the degree itself?

I'm going into final year and I just uploaded a page from my student portal (name, course, expected graduation date) and it was approved.

Haven't been approved yet either and was getting worried i just uploaded a photo of a cert I got from student info desk saying I completed my degree

FE1new · 10-09-2020 09:45AM

Hi All

First time here and this has probably been asked hundreds of time but would anyone know what topics were asked in the March 2020 Property, Equity and Criminal exams?

Really appreciate any help, this will be my first round of FE1s and I'm panicking a little.

lawgrad2020 · 10-09-2020 10:00AM

Hello,

Does anyone have recent sample answers for property, company and/or contract? I have the Griffith ones but I think they're too general and I would like to look at some other examples. I have grids/notes to swap!

Yeah, I don't know of many people doing it in October either. I know of a couple who did Tort & EU in August.

It was the August exams that I was approved for but I ended up not sitting/completing the registration. I think it took about a week from my application.
I thought that was initially why I had issues registering for the October exams.

tommyq94 · 10-09-2020 01:13PM

Does anyone have any idea where the exams might be held in October?

Should we expect to be back to the Red Cow with less numbers in each room etc?

Would need to book accommodation soon enough

loosehead1973 · 10-09-2020 01:13PM

Hi
Does anyone here know the best way to find the latest case law for Constitutional, my manual is 2 yrs old so I presume there is new cases for SOP etc since then.
Thanks in advance
Gus

I’d say there’ll be a few venues due to social distancing so most likely won’t know where you are until the letter comes

rickmatt · 10-09-2020 02:30PM

Hi,

Anyone able to send me the updated Constitutional grid for Autumn 2020.

Have material for everything else if any wants to swap.

Thanks

Check out kings inns syllabus, very detailed with up to date cases

Dliodoir2021 · 10-09-2020 08:45PM

Has anyone heard of a case for UNDUE INFLUENCE called AIB v Rostoff or Rostov? It's in my equity notes from 2 years ago and was under appeal to IECA but can't find anything at all on it. If I got the right name, it would be great!

Also, anyone doing constitutional....order the supreme court book now! You don't need to read it all. brilliant help for exam!
