I did criminal legal funding, community orders, police powers and bail. Was a reasonably easy exam I thought except it was 100 degrees in the exam room and I had like a claw hand at the end of it lol.
Hey you know for the bail question the part A bit did you only talk about the bail act or did you also talk about the police powers to grant bail?
I did both I think they're trying to re-word the questions to spook us and my teachers warned us of that! But really they're just asking the same things as they have before How'd you find it?

If only you predict the lottery like that eh? I'd be a millionaire! I don't think I did, I honestly can't remember, probably maybe 1 sentence to conclude I know I think I counted like 8/9 sides of A4 or something crazy like that
Made up Bail and Police Powers came up! Community Sentences and Barristers Training wasnt that bad, hope Ive done good in this one, going to be dropping it and pick up history instead. Found out that law is not the subject for me...
I could not believe how much of a gift this paper was Bail came up, stop and search came up and thank god i read the question carefully cause it said other searches in the police station, and i did roles of the lay mags and the jurisdiction of high court and county court so question 1,5,6 and 7
only revised ADR, bail, detention, stop and search, magistrates and sentencing
got quite lucky!
struggled at the sentencing one though
Me too the ones i didnt bother revising eg judges didnt come up so i was lucky too lol.. Also for the stop and search question i didnt read it properly so lost a lot of marks

Hi there everyone. For those of you who answered the question b on magistrates' advantages in the legal system, did you also mention the disadvantages ?

I didn't as I'd been warned of how some people get carried away with that and don't get as many marks as it wants only advantages. Although to show development you could then go, however a disadvantage of this is blah blah blah. So yeah, I didn't specifically as I'd done it previously and been warned against it. However on some mark schemes they are allowed to credit it
Thank you very much =).. I thought I missed out some marks since i never wrote about the disadvantages myself but now that you are telling me that it is not necessary, I am not worrying nomore about it.
