EQUITY
Would anyone have any condensed notes on SP and rectification specifically?
Would hugely appreciate it!
Send me a DM with your email address and I'll send you mine from last sitting!
Equity- for resulting trusts is there anything specific to focus on or should I learn all of it?
I'm focusing on
Joint bank accounts
Presumption of advancement
Surplus funds
And hoping that'll be adequate
Can anyone please explain Jackie greene case in contractual terms?
Constitution
Does anyone approve this time schedule based on experience?
30 min to read questions at start, make notes and mind dump. (since it's harder to spot issues, and to choose which ones to benefit from most).
35 min per question (by that stage the notes are basically in the box and I can flesh out faster since I already read through it?)
Usually I'd give myself 10 min at the start of an exam only for reading. But Con is so wordy and nuanced.. I'd hate if I read something in a rush only to realise I read it wrong, didn't know what was asked then frantically find/waste time reading another Q.
I'm sure everybody will have their own plan on how to allocate the time. From memory, here's how I approached Constitutional in March.
So my approach was to get as much marks on the board before I tackled the problem Q's because as people above have alluded to, they are never clear in Constitutional and require a bit of deciphering!
For a bit of pre-exam comfort, I will echo previous comments on Carolan, he is deffo a fair marker! I passed comfortably and genuinely thought I was going to be High 40's or borderline 50 because on reflection I forgot case names or didn't pick up on every detail- but it is clear he awards marks for good logical arguments and not simply the 'right or preferable' answer.
Think I will be doing similar tomorrow, taking longer to read the paper (normally would give 5 or 10, will probably do 20 to do a mind dump too because I will definitely not retain all of the case names for 3.5 hours). Then getting the more straightforward questions done to have marks on the board as lawgrad49 said and time left after that is divided somewhat equally between the remaining questions.
Here's hoping for a sound enough paper and a pass for all of us.
Potentially going to try to squeeze in: Zalewski / Mootness / Entitlement to Damages / Election + Ref Law
Constitutional Law - Case Note Q
Who wants to swap case note lists?
I'll send you the case notes that you're missing, and you send me the case notes that I'm missing.
It's such a good question to do, but even with around 30 case notes, I'm deathly afraid of not having two that come up!
Constitutional Q
How much detail is needed for the case notes?
Do we need names of Acts that were argued in the case etc... Or would the general argument, conclusion and significance of the case be enough?
Thanks!
What do people use for rough work during the online exams. Do they use paper and pen or does better examinations provide an area for that work ?
You aren't allowed to use paper and pen but there's a "note pad" that you can use for rough work or you can write in the answer box and just delete the rough work if you don' want to keep it there.
I used the notepad one exam and my notes disappeared. I read somewhere someone had the same experience. Just an FYI.
As in the notes in the notepad weren't included with your script? They aren't supposed to be viewable by the examiner so anything in the notepad will delete at the end as far as I know!
Contract:
Anyone have any thoughts on whether the below will be enough for contract, I haven’t gone through many past papers so I’m a bit stuck:
Any insights would be appreciated!
No lol.. my mind dump
Sorry! To clarify I meant everything I had dumped down in the little notepad of cases etc before answering while reading. Then I went back to it later in the exam and was gone :(
I think its easier to write everything in the text box. It also allows the examiner to see your train of thought
Yeah that's what I do. I make out kinda plans with all my cases and train of thought.. helped me in the company exam where I didn't get to finish my last question but the examiner could see I had cases laid out etc
Quick Q on Constitutional. Should you write out the provision? For example if it was a question on Religion would you type out Art 44?
Anyone else pull an all nighter prepping for cons... Zzzz
If there is anyone out there that can say they are confident going into Constitutional today, I am beyond jealous! 🤣
...
does anyone have tips/tricks to get their exam over the line? Noting that the pass rate is so low, what is it she's looking for?
Hi all,
Does anyone know if the Constitutional marker is fair, or what his pass rate is? Sitting Constitutional this morning and very nervous.
Thanks a mill guys
Me too it will be a miracle if I pass, there’s just way too much that can be asked that it’s hard to know anything in detail
... DPP v Doherty [2019]
Good luck this morning!!! Hopefully we’ll get a good one!!!
