    hey whats the quote?
    Most likely it will be source 5 47-49 or 50-51. If Q1 is on Non Fatal Offences, Q2 will be on consent. That quote is source 6 36-38

    tbh I dont think I will have enough time to write a decent answer in about half an hr

    i reckon it might be the other way round, consent q1 and offences q2.
    i think spend about 15 mins on q1
    scenarios - 15 mins
    and then a whole hour on the essay.

    I thought I did awesome. The scenarios... were odd. Like not what we practised at all! I assumed there'd be some consent in them?! Or am I being dense and there was? =/ I kinda edged consent into the first, by saying crap about sexual gratification in hitting her. Yeahh...

    Wilson, hell yeah. Not what I expected but pleasantly surprised that I didn't have to write the whole of effin' Brown. Or I/B =) And the essay was... good, like exact same quote as my teacher gave us, but the question was slightly different. You didn't have to talk about Assault and Battery really in that essay did you? I figured not, cos it said .47, .20 and .18?

    i didn't mention battery and consent because it just said the relevant sections

    I didnt mention battery or assault either, but I had that exact same question, with answer in my book! glad I had a look at it!

    In the 3c, what did everyone charge it as? ABH or GBH?

    i said it could be either depending on the seriousness of the psychiatric injury then mentioned relevant cases, e.g. ireland, burstow, chanfook (although it was not allowed in the last 1)

    ditto. but because we had to choose, i went with ABH as it would be easier to prove in practical terms in addition to the fact that it wasnt serious physciatric injury, simply phsyciatric injury

    i thought the 1st scenario was dumb and confusing! i said how the woman's consent to being slapped was more "mere submission" opposed to actual consent. also i felt that source 5 that we had to quote from for question 2 mainly was so long and it all practically said the same thing - inflict and cause are the same thing and that its not practical. however even if i feel i have done well, because its a new specification i'm aware that they are trying to make this exam harder so it will be harder to get the marks.
