YES it's saying there's a fault with my 'Desktop' i.e. the screen sharing. It worked perfectly last week and I did all the troubleshooting for it and everything's authorised...

Starting to panic me now

And of course can't get through to Law Society.. not even that the phones are busy, they're just ringing out...

Article 101 and 102, but can't remember the specific questions off the top of my head unfortunately!

Was that for the online one? I know for the physical august sitting the question was on what is meant by x terms under arts 101 ad 102.

Did that same question come up for the students who had to sit it online as they were in lockdown?

Hi everyone,

I applied to view my tort law script but still haven't received it via email. Is anyone still waiting to hear back from the Law Society with a copy of their August script. I applied to view it towards the end of September.

Also, when you log onto the law society website does it state clearly that the result there is your recheck result? I don't think I have received my recheck result and have received no update/email from the law society about it, apart from paying the fee.

Thanks.

I applied for mine the day I did the online exam because I knew it would take ages and I received it last night!

Meg!

I got an email from Carmel re my extra time etc. Did everyone (who is suppose to get it) get this?

Whoever was talking about campus oil test/ granting interlocutory injunctions, there is an important 2019 SC case - Merck Sharpe & Dohme v Clonmel Health - reformulates the campus oil test a bit - would definitely need to reference it in an injunction question!
Best of luck

Does anyone have an up-to-date grid and recent exam papers/reports for Property?

I've been working from material that's a few years old so it would be super helpful to make sure I'm not totally out of the loop for next week. Any help is appreciated and will of course be reciprocated any way I can!

yeah, pm me your email

I’m curious too. I’m running out of time to finish it all. I’ve done classification of offences, strict liability, sex offences, murder and manslaughter, nfoap act, property offences and bail. Omissions and insanity came up in March. Reckon they’d come up again?

Hey guys, just wondering is anyone leaving any topics at all out for criminal? I know he covers a lot and mixes topics but I’m under pressure and just wondering is there anything at all I could cut? Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know what generally happens if you don’t pass fe1s by the time your traineeship is due to commence?

Currently applying for a few - have 5 exams passed and sitting 2 next week. I was planning on applying to start blackhall 2021 but honestly the online system has thrown me right off, I’m nervous about passing these ones and have my toughest subject left for last next spring. I’m afraid of cutting it too close for a 2021 traineeship but also afraid firms wouldn’t be much impressed with my applying for 2022 with just 3 left...

Any advice?

If you're more comfortable applying for 2022 I don't think firms would be put off by that at all.

When I was applying a lot of firms asked me if I was planning on taking time out to travel after the FE1's, before starting training and they seemed pretty surprised when I said no... it seemed like they would actually encourage that type of thing (obviously now there's guarantee's we'll be able to travel any time soon

but none of the firms I interviewed with seemed to mind people applying for training contracts a couple of years down the line).

I applied in 2019 (in final year of college) and was initially offered a 2020 TC which only gave me one sitting for the FE1's - so when I asked to change the start date, I explained that I wanted to allow myself 3 sittings to pass the exams, just in case I needed three, and the firm didn't mind that (it's one of the big Dublin firms too and they were fine with that). And a lot of people who applied in 2019 with me got contracts for 2022 at that stage, so wayy in advance!

I wanted to give myself 3 sittings bc I thought it would be easier to have that conversation when accepting the contract rather than putting pressure on myself to pass in 1 or 2 sittings and having to tell them at the last minute that I haven't passed all 8 and I can't start my contract on time. I'd say just do whatever you're comfortable with - if you want to start in 2022 apply for that, if you're eager to get started in 2021 then put that down

What year was Feehan v Leamy?
Everywhere I can find says it was 2000 but none of the exam reports or sample answers mention it till 2012, even though the question came up several times between 2000 and 2012.
Am I missing something?

Would anyone have a sample answer for directors duties or concise notes? Struggling to learn this topic. Willing to share any material for company if you need it. Thanks
