Hi LegalCity,
First round interview offers are out from Arthur Cox. I got an email from them this afternoon about the group interviews. They will be held next week.
Cheers for the reply. Yeah I got the same. I was just curious did other firms emails get sent today. Just have to play it by ear. Good luck

Sooooooo
..... Who else is taking the plunge for the first time this sitting? I just started Company & Tort in Griffith this week - Forgot how much is involved in Company so that's my biggest worry! Tort seems manageable though. Also doing EU & Criminal but am comfortable enough with those (famous last words). 0 -

I did Company and Criminal last sitting. Your right in company, there is a lot to it. Courtney can be random in that you can bet no matter how well you know the course there will be one question he puts in that your not sure where it came from. I'd recommend getting your hands on the Companies Act I used it for three questions last time. And cover everything, I did and I could answer my 8 but things like examinership came up which has been asked only twice since 2005 if I can remember. He does have bankers like directors duties and borrowings.
Learn all criminal, he mixes alot for his questions and you can easily have 5 or 6 topics in one question. I will be (hopefully) doing EU and tort this time round but Im hoping to stay in denial about studying for another two weeks!0 -

Dreading it. Will certainly be buying the Acts but aren't they 250e new or something along those lines? Crazy!
Thanks for the advice though. No doubt I'll be trolling this thread for the foreseeable future
On that note actually, if anyone has the exam grids for EU and/or Criminal it'd be greatly appreciated. 0 -

Im from Cork and there is the book shop Liam Russells who supply the law books so I'd look them up. Thats where I saw it new for €120. Also in Cork there is John Smiths Bookshop in UCC, they sell in there to and sometimes can have second hand copies. Both order it in when you need it so may be worth giving them a ring and see their prices now and if they will post it out if your not in Cork. I dont think their websites show what they have but Id ring and check with them.
I rang a few places today ... There seems to be some confusion as to what I'm searching for
Hodges Figgis reckon that there hasn't been one in print for a long time. Liam Russell wanted 160e. John Smiths were quite helpful and actually rang the OPW to clarify matters. They have a 1963-2009 in stock which is apparently current but shouldn't there be a more up-to-date version than 2009?
If not, they're quite cheap (by comparison) - 95e for anyone else searching.0 -

The newest version to date is the CA 1963- 2009. Thats the most recent one as it listed in the law society allowed legislation (of course you can have older versions). So thats the one you want to get and thats a amazing to go from €160 to €95! Some people have it in exams and never use it. I think it depends on the paper you get as there are about 5/6 topics that are heavily legislation based. I would not say that its the difference between pass and fail, but if you can afford to buy it, its worth the piece of mind in the exam if you were to need it.0 -
