FE1 Exam Thread (Read 1st post!) No trading

Hi all,

I am selling company law 2014 legislation. Bought for €75, but selling for €70 plus postage. Some light underlining from previous owner.

Let me know if you're interested. Thank you.

Would anyone have any recommendations for what are the main priority topics to study for Company?

Have sign ups for March 2022 sitting opened yet? I can't see that they have on the LS website but want to double check so I'm sure I'm not missing it

I came here to post this exact question lol. I've been checking the LS website every couple of days and haven't seen the applications open yet, even though the closing date listed on the info sheet for the March 2022 sitting is 27 January.

Hi Guys,

Just starting to get myself together for the next set of exams. What do people think are the non-negotiable must cover topics for Constitutional?

hi all. just started studying for 4 fe1s last week (property, equity, contract and tort). getting overwhelmed with the material and the idea that i’ll have to study all day every day to cover it. is anyone else in the same boat? how do you manage the stress and anxiety?

I agree with above - it is very stressful... BUT doable!

My tips for equity - Charities and Trustees Duties always tend to come up so two topics and (probably) two guaranteed questions. Likewise Injunctions usually make an appearance. The rest of the syllabus can be a bit more unpredictable but I used Law School for the last sitting and they predicted the topics pretty much spot on and I passed first time.

I agree with the above comment that a look at the exam grids would be really useful and if the going gets tough, take a risk and be strategic with what you study.

Property - I only ever studied Succession (Succession has appeared as two questions in the exam paper for at least the last 3 sittings), Adverse Possession, Family, Easements, Co-Ownership, Finding and I managed to pass (60%) but I would have 1 or 2 back ups on top of that if time permits.

also - last question! for those of you who studied full time for 4 subjects, was 9-6 studying okay? or did you have to continue 7-9? I’m planning on 5 days per week but find myself getting so ready to quit at 6!

By any chance do you have Equity Exam Papers for sale?

I studied part-time for four over the same length of time you've mentioned and I think you're gonna be fine with full-time study, just pace yourself and stick to your study plan. If you've put in a solid day then maybe your brain is just done with it at 6pm and there's no value to slogging on just to feel like you're putting in 'enough' hours. If you feel like you're not getting enough in by 6pm maybe break for a couple hours for dinner etc and then read back over some stuff for a while? Don't burn out though, gotta keep something in the tank for actually sitting the exams!

I will send you on the equity past papers and reports if you want to send me your email

thanks

Hi, I did that one day revision course before for contract and tort and really did not find it helpful at all! I obviously don't know what the company lecturer is like but in general (and from other hearing peoples opinions) I would not recommend Griffith College. If you want to pm me I can send you my condensed notes that I used for the March 2021 sitting.

I would highly recommend to attend this examiner's lecture. He has his favourite topics but he also focuses on recent cases and the best way to know which ones is his lecture which takes place I think around February but might be wrong.

Ok, if this is the case I would recommend to ask somebody who attended the last lecture and to take the notes.
