Also Judicial Review comes up in every sitting, always asking about the difficulty of getting standing for individuals (usually an essay but I believe it was a PQ twice, again asking about getting standing)

Besides SOP , any other key areas for Constitution?

William Fry is another firm not doing milk rounds this year!

They're holding an event in November for their summer interns and recruiting trainees from that pool, and they've ditched the traditional Milkrounds for this year at least.

Hey,
Hope everyone is well after the sh1t-show that has been the last two weeks.
Does anyone have an up to date grid for Property that they would be willing to share?
Thanks!

What is our money being used for if the exam is being held over zoom? Very poor

I forgot about that lol
But I'd say the online invigilation could be pretty pricey, and then if it is the same as the August sitting they'll have to send us out answer booklets in the post and still have the usual costs of paying the examiners to correct it etc.

On the bright side those of us not from Dublin will be saving €100+ on hotels per exam

What topics is anyone doing for company? So stressed how to break it down

do you have an exam grid? I found that very useful when deciding on topics, I am focusing on Directors/duties/restriction/disqualification, corporate personality, liquidation/winding up, share transfer/shareholder protection and remedies, corporate borrowings and disposition of company assets. I am also going to go over the advantages of incorporation!

We don’t know for sure any details of if it’s typed / written yet do we? Or did I miss info given yesterday? Genuinely asking as it’s hard to keep up lol

No we have not yet been told, I think most people are following what the LS did for the august online sittings, I kind of wish we had the option, my hand writing is terrible!

I think someone alluded to this before, but now I'm stressing about not having a paper copy of the exam paper, as I go nuts with highlighting, underlining & making notes on it. Feel like it'll be super hard to take in the questions just reading them off a screen Anyone have any tips on how to deal with this?

I will email on Monday and ask about this and I'll let you know (if they respond to me)

If you have a printer at home bring it into the room and print the paper off when it appears online - I assume law society will be able to confirm if this is allowed

Hey folks, can anyone tell me how the scanning answer books part of the online exams is going to work? For example do we have to download specific software. I know the LS will be clarifying this but 'Id like to know now as I'm not very tech savvy. Thanks.

None of us know for sure as details haven’t been released. Go back a couple of posts and read the post re how it was done in august. Assume it’ll be the same but who knows

I asked if I could look over my notes and she said I could, or I could leave to get tea or water or whatever and come back on screen just beforehand, so I wouldn't worry too much.

I just made sure to show her that I was putting my notes behind me before I began (they were in plain sight, on a dressing table right behind me for the entire exam).[/QUOTE

im guessing too that we share our laptops screens?

I didn't have to share my screen, but it would have been pretty obvious if I was doing something on it after the exam started.

I believe they just trusted that we had the exam paper, and the exam paper only, open.
