FE1 Exam Thread (Read 1st post!) NOTICE: YOU MAY SWAP EXAM GRIDS

smugairleroin

Hi, I just started having a look at the manuals today and I'm already a bit overwhelmed! Would anyone please be able to send me exam grids for Property, Company, Equity and EU? Hopefully it'll give me a heads up on where to focus. Thanks a million!

Does anyone have an up to date criminal grid that they could forward me? thanks

Thanks a mill!

For property, do most people leave out topics like tenure and freehold / hybrid estates which haven't been examined since 2009? It seems like a waste of my time to study them when it's so unlikely that they'd how up on the paper.

I have exam grids for criminal, property and contract, currently seeking out an equity and tort one if anyone wishes to trade!

Also have a few sample answers in respect of the above for if interested

Thanks!!

Hi all!
I'm attempting to sit equity, contract, criminal and constitution this October. I unfortunately don't know anybody sitting them this March and would love some assistance if anybody has the time.

I only have pretty shabby 2014 manuals so I'm not much use for swapping materials.

If anybody knows what aren't very examinable topics in constitutional and criminal I would be super greatful! I know the general rule is to study everything, but I wouldn't love any tips to reduce the work load even by just a topic!

Look at the exam grids, and then hedge your bets.

The unfortunate thing with Criminal is that it is very hard to predict.

Thus, as you've said, the general rule is study everything.

After been diagnosed with debilitating migraines, I wonder does the Law Society provide a sick bay if the need arises and where is it located?

I'm not sure what you mean by sick bay but the Law Society provide good exam supports for those who need them such as extra time or a classroom on your own. If you get them you sit the exams in Blackhall. I'd give them a call and see what they can do.

Hey, would anyone have an up-to-date exam grid for Company Law please? In return I can give you comprehensive notes for any of the subjects...except Company. I used the notes to pass all so far first time. Thank you in advance

fujilaw

Hey,

Would anyone have the last 5/6 exam papers/reports for EU?

Would be able to swap for whatever, as I have comprehensive material on the other subjects.

Thanks.

Hi all,

Would really appreciate being shown an exam grid for constitutional law, equity and/or property law. Everyone is referring to grids & I have never sat the FE1s before, I guess you mean the topics but if anyone can share an example even i would really appreciate it, thanks M

With grammar like that, are you sure you're not looking for the Junior Cert exam thread?

Mod: Easy now. Nobody is perfect. Pls keep to thread topic

Hi! I've just started revising. I'd recommend getting the exam reports and past papers and then a good book on the topic you're revising. And maybe a revision book for keeping it short and snappy. I'm a fan of the nutshells. Good luck!

Nasty, we support each other on this forum. Id say they love your friendly disposition in your work place, not.

Anyway going back to the original question, not too late to start. Nutshells are a god send, you need concise general knowledge of all topics. So Nutlshells is ideal, dont bog yourself down, a little goes a long way. Spend the next four weeks writing up notes and then maybe mid August to exam week spend revising/memorising. It can be achieved, it just takes perseverance and a bit of burning the midnight oil. You will get there!

Yesterday's SC judgment in DPP v. Dekker provides quite a comprehensive breakdown on the mens rea element of murder as an accessory.

Anyone doing criminal should give this a read as (and I may be corrected here) there's always a murder/manslaughter question on the paper. If there's more than one person involved on the "kill side", you're going to have to discuss the criminal liability of accessories. Dissecting the mental requirement is essential to a good answer here.

I started studying for the March exams in January and somehow managed to pass all 5 of them. If you don't spend too much time procrastinating in the next two months you should be fine.
