is it worth keeping/using Law notes from A-level at Uni?

there’s a lot of content overlap in modules for Law at degree level as there was at A-Level, i still have all of my work (alevel grade A/A*) so is it worth keeping some of that or should i not bother and start completely fresh?

Oh god no - please do not do this!! The best thing would be to burn them, actually.

You will find that law at university is a completely different animal to A level. The original reason why some universities didn't like A level students taking law was that 'a little learning is a dangerous thing', and the A level simplified, condensed and omitted so much stuff that student came up to university and immediately had to 'unlearn' a load of nonsense they'd 'learnt' at A level.

Put the notes aside. Use them for composting, or shopping lists. But for God's sake don't try to carry any of it forward to your degree - apart from the skills you should have gained in writing a good, cogent, terse essay.

This is why TSR needs you - lots of people would be misinformed

hahaha - thank you

Law at A level does teach some good, transferable skills apart from the essay, like an introduction to legal method, and the idea of how to read statutes, etc, along with some basic consti and stuff like that. But it's so different from, say, chemistry A level, where what you've learnt is wholly foundational to going on to do chemistry at university. A level law is more like a 'greatest hits' album. I've known more than one student who thought that tort law began and ended with Donoghue v Stevenson, for instance, and that there was no more to Contract than Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Co. because 'that's what they did at A level law'...

As I said - a little learning is a dangerous thing!

Ah well good to note is has some positives - I was a little scared of taking it if it would all be useless when I got to university
