Should be enough. Criminal is by far the easiest imo.

Thanks. Loads left to learn but hoping by sound lots of papers it’ll sink in!

Hi. Some last minute advice needed. Thinking of attempting criminal. Notes done and need to start exam papers. Have about 2hrs per day minimum to study. Do you think I’d be ok?! Thanks!!

2 hours a day of productive study here should be enough to pass i reckon. Criminal in my opinion is one of the easier exams to pass with short study time.

good luck

In the Griffith one I have, it's covered under Chapter 9 - SOP & the Doctrine of Non-Justiciability. Section heading is "The Wording, Content & Conduct of Referenda".

For company law does disqualification ever come up or is it just restriction

Out of interest, has anyone here been doing the fe1 ones for over 2 years?

I am! I’m working full time and have a child so time is hard to come by. And I’ve no law degree/experience, just passed the preliminary exam a while back. I missed one complete sitting because I couldn’t get time off work. It’s fairly daunting but nearly there now!

Hey, In the prep course I completed we were told just to cover restriction that disqualification rarely ever comes up

Anyone know what is likely to come up for constitutional this year?

Hi guys, this is my first time taking the exams, are we permitted to highlight and put sticky tabs in our legislation?

hey, does anyone know if employers' liability for occupational injury was on the november or august tort paper, and if it's one that comes up often? the manual for tort doesn't have the usual exam relevance/past qs section so just trying to figure out if i can leave out any topics

Not on November for that particular question. There was a question about a car dealer that took someone out for a test drive without a licence but I answered it as vicarious liability. I got 11 out of 20 so could have had something to do with employers liability! But nothing in relation to occupational injury. Products liability and occupiers liability came up so employers might be due a run!

Anyone think it's worth getting the Nutshells books for some subjects like constitutional or eu?

Products liability and occupiers liability came home so employers might be die a run!

thank you so much, hugely appreciated!

Does anyone have the link to the 2021 Night Before Notes? Can't find them online / not sure if they're out yet / terrified they're not doing it this time!

LawLearnin

Is anyone else still trying to get clarity/confirmation from the LS over recheck results?

I can only find the 2020 link, don't see the 2021 one on their website yet either. Maybe they don't release them til closer to the sittings?

I have the Cons one at the moment and its clarified a few things for me already. Wont be using it as my main source for any topic but its good to have a second explanation for some areas of the course.

Hi, a quick query regarding Eu law - Fundamental Freedoms - Free Movement of Goods.
My manual says when approaching a problem question to do so in 4 steps .
The first is ‘ highlight the national measure’.
Does anyone know what this means in practice?
The next 3 steps make sense just stuck on this one.
Thanks!!
