is anyone focusing on any specific charitable trust ie poverty/religion/education? is anyone in particular due a run?
It's definitely possible. If you've got a few 12/20s and 13/20s in the other questions it doesn't be long boosting you up.. For example if your other 4 questions get 12/20 each then you're already at 48% without even doing the last question. Even if you scribble down a bit of waffle for the 5th you'd scrape it!
How do you think the marks would be allocated for this ? I blitzed fair procedures out of it but didn't answer on Religion because I didn't know anything on it, got about 15-20 cases down for F.P to give you a fair idea of what I did !
I did the opposite! Wrote everything I knew about Religion but only dawned on FP at the very end and threw in one sentence!
Fairplay Bob !
I passed Constitutional last time with one question talking about a completely wrong topic (but he gave me 8), and I did the case note question with only very minor details on one case and nothing correct on the other. There's hope!
I discussed the point of religion and equality and the area of presumption of invalidity where someone is said to have been discriminated on basis of religion.
Hoping he is open to interpretation lol
Was rather painful yes, but I’m a seasoned veteran with these so I know better than to let myself think about how I done. Was convinced on a few last sitting that I’d failed but I was wrong.
For those who sat any this week or last, what’s done is done - whether a pass or a repeat - no use worrying. To pints tonight 🍺
(edit: seems I have lost my ability to English after these exams)
Advancement of religion came up last time as far as I remember as part q and the exceptional cats of non char PT so I might focus on benefit to community and education …
im really struggling and stressing as to what to pin down on …
Pretty sure the poverty aspect came up last time... Which has me thinking we could be due a PQ to Inc the usual sports association, is it charitable etc. But I'd be stupid to try & predict anything knowing what these exams are like 😂
Anyone else's brain starting to go nope? I had Constitutional today and can't remember a thing now for equity 😂
Anyone have condensed notes on illegal contracts?
EQUITY
anybody think it would be safe to leave out Anton Pillar?
Probably, it's only come up a couple of times. I've a feeling we're gonna get a Mandatory Interlocutory question or a Quia Timet question since Mareva came up last time. That said Anton Pillar is really short with only like 7 or 8 cases so shouldn't take that long to learn, but it's unlikely that it will come up.
Anyone who has done the prep courses for contract and EU, have they given you any predictions for them?
Definitely! On a related note, does anyone have any tips for what to do if you just blank during the exam? It's happened to me once where I could remember a load of material in terms of the developments in law but not the actual names of cases, really just froze up and ended up wasting time trying to remember them. Just write down the gist, move on to the next question and try to come back to it?
Even if you can't remember the name you should definitely still write down the facts and decision, you're bound to get marks even if you didn't specify the case name. If you have time at the end of the exam you should come back and see if it pops back into your head. I find that the harder you try to remember a case name the more difficult it is actually remembering it so if you come back to it at the end it might come back to you. Another thing I find helpful with remembering case names is to try and find a connection between the facts and the case name. The connection doesn't even have to be law related it could be something completely arbitrary you take from your own life. I find it really useful especially when you need to learn about 300 cases haha.
Anyone also chancing their arm and not learning the departure from campus oil? 🙏🏻😅
Anyone know what is due up for terms? Or what are people focusing more on
i have briefly looked over them, don’t seem to come up too much do they?
I learnt only unilateral in only in general terms.
Do you think the following would be enough for Equity tomorrow or should I add anything else? I have failed this exam before so am v v nervous about it.
Charitable trusts and Cy Pres
Strong v Bird
Hastings Bass
3 certainties
DMC
Estoppel
Undue influence
Injunctions (qua and manditory)
Trustees
Specific Performance and rectification
This happened to me with contract last sitting and I just wrote down the facts of the case and the important principle from it - managed to scrape a pass. I did have one very good answer that I got 14 in which likely saved me but the rest were very poor. Still managed to get 7 and 8s in the answers that I forgot case names as it was clear I knew the facts and decisions in cases and applied that to the question.
I have pretty much the same.
The law school prep course believe constructive trusts are due a run but I haven't covered this.
I did write few notes on Presumed RT's
Any chance anyone has the examiner's report for november 20 contract exam please?
Hi all, for contract are we safe to completely leave out proprietary estoppel and only focus on promissory?
I just have the differences between it and promissory like can be a sword etc and two cases (thorner v major / gillet v holt) just incase
Anyone else feeling stressed for contract tomorrow
100%
Super stressed for contract as it's hopefully my last ever FE1 and is probably standing in the way of me starting the Hybrid course in December.
One tip I got from a tutorial session I did with someone though which I've found helpful when doing past questions- when you go into the exam, write down a shopping list of all the topics you've covered and refer to it after reading every single question. The examiner often mixes topics and has some hidden topics that aren't fully evident at first glance. Looking at each question and asking yourself "Is Estoppel here, is UI here, is Capacity here, is there breach, etc" can help prevent anything being left out.
