Hi all, anyone know where I can get unmarked legislative sources, like 2009 Land Law Act and Succession Act?

I just wanted to check before I do anything to it, but I can highlight and tab the Companies Act can't I? I just can mark anything in pen etc?

The OPW, if you go back a bit in this thread you will find their contact details. Think you have to call them to order

Does anyone happen to have a constitutional grid?

Howdy all, was just reading this thread and someone said they handed out copies of the Companies Act 2014 last time? Any chance of a repeat performance for October or do you think we have to supply our own as usual?

Just making sure before I bite the bullet and shell out €100

You should ring the law society and check, only way to know for sure.

Can anyone share grids for company, contract, eu or equity? I would be very grateful!

Anyone doing equity, for charitable trusts do you think it's necessary to cover the case law on what is and isn't considered a charitable purpose considering this is all explicitly defined under section 3 of the 2009 act?

If a question came up singling out one area of a topic are you expected to outline the entire topic or is that seen as not answering what is asked?

For example, a question in equity asking to discuss the certainty of objects and one other certainty - if you discussed the requiring of formalities here also would this been seen as misreading the question as they might consider you just wrote down everything you knew about that entire topic.

Hi m8s! Have been reading this thread and growing increasingly panicked, I'm sitting Property, Constitutional, EU and Tort in the Oct sitting and I have no idea what a ***grid*** is but I feel like I might need them? What even is this life.

I've just been trying to cover as much of the syllabus as possible but every day at around 4pm I have a daily breakdown where I laugh hysterically because I definitely cannot cover everything and don't know what to prioritise. I don't have manuals or anything

Anyone wants to help a drowning gal out, I have nothing to offer but my eternal gratitude and the naming of my first born.

P.s. you all seem like nice people xo

Examiners hate when student's don't ask the specific question. Writing about the whole topic shows a lack of understanding of what is being asked. I know it can be scary and you feel like your trying to get everything down but for one thing you absolutely wont have time only to answer what is specifically is being asked.

A grid has the topics for a subject and shows when they have come up in previous years. At this stage the exams aren't all that predictable but it can help to show topics that never really come up or ones that have come up in the past few years. I don't have any up to date ones for your exams but I'm sure someone will help you out.

If you don't have manuals I strongly recommend talking to someone that has or has recently taken the exams because they contain a lot of info and tips specific to the exams and the examiners.

Hi all,


Has anyone else been in a study slum ? Last two days were possibly the most unproductive days of my life! I find studying is making me scared because I'm constantly second guessing myself as if I'm covering enough.. I know I still have time but can anyone give me any tips on what they found the most effective way to study is?


thanks in advance

Just looking at March's Property paper. Am I reading it right that two Qs on Landlord and Tenant came up in that? Does that mean I could risk leaving it out?

Which ones do you think are Landlord and Tenant? To my knowledge it is only question 7.
