Any idea on Constitutional's pass rate?

How many pages of answers are people putting down? I feel I put too much at the start and then they get shorter my writing gets messier and I just start to panic. Wanna plan better for the next exams!

I'm covering (well,memorise is a different story) :

Offer/Accept
Consideration
Estoppel
Terms
Consumer Law
Discharge
Remedies
Excl Clauses
Undue Influence
Capacity

I'm hoping that sees me through the PQs with a potentially bollocks bullet point essay . . .

Yeah hopefully --- Contract should be OK in normal circumstances but sandwiched between Company and EU is not fun ...

Guys I passed Constitutional and I didn't have a bloody notion. I hadn't read any of the cases so went nowhere near the cases question. I absolutely spoofed an essay and filled it with my own musings. Came out of the exam feeling like I had wasted my time. But I passed! So hang in there!!

I have no clue haha, hoping to see what came up in the last few sittings and get an idea. I really hate estoppel and would love to leave it out but I know that it’s practically guaranteed with consideration.

Edit: I’ve already left out unlawful contracts, consumer protection, agency and mistake, but I think I’ll do mistake really quickly tonight.

I would leave out duress and misrepresentation!

Is there any point in studying case notes for constitutional law? It feels it is such a gamble that there is not much point?

In an essay q on freedom of expression for journalists would you put in the defamation and contempt of court cases?

Feeling very shaky on the EU directives in relation to consumer protection....should I keep battling with it or would my time be better directed going back over my other sections? By shaky I mean I’m reading my notes and I swear it’s like I’ve never seen them before!!
