Ahhhh...law homework!!

Hi...im starting law with french law in TEN DAYS!! at ucl, and ive just checked out the work they sent us to do, and im panicking slightly, as i havent started it yet.
has anyone else not started/completed the work...and do they really expect us to read ALL(!!) of Bradley and Ewing???

Scroll to see replies

I've sort of nearly finished it. .. at last.

No they don't expect us to read all of Bradley & Ewing. They sent us the quiz so we can get used to the book (instead of just reading it!).

Seriously guys; chill. I've blagged many a tute in my time thus far! Contrary to the literature they don't really force you to talk in tutes. Answer the easy questions at the beginning adn you'll be fine. There's 8 - 10 of you, and always someone who doesn't know when/how to shut up!
Amen.

There are 4 people on this board going to UCL to do Law with French law. :askpig: *




*i just wanted to use this smily. Afterall, I will never ever need to use it for its real purpose...

So who's the other one? What day was your interview on.. not that I can remember just wonder if you were in my tour group.
If anyone wants to help me with the last question I'll be very grateful...

"9. Describe the approach that each judge has to the precedents before the court. What are the pros and cons for each type of “handling” of case law?"

I haven't answered that question yet and I haven't got the work sheets with me but based on my understanding of judicial precedent I would say that it has to do with whether the judges in question "accept" or "reject" the decisions made by previous judges in factually similar cases and of course what the pros and cons are of taking such an approach.
hey onearmedbandit so what's your opinion on my suggested anwer? Rubbish? (hope not)

I'm not sure... it's not rubbish. It's better than anything I've come up with.

lol...it was quite freaky. they just picked a random day and time to phone me and interrogate me...in french. was i the only one?
there were quite a few of us at interview! lol mine was in french but at least was face to face, must've been pretty scary down the phone!

so did you have really good grades? I thought mine were pretty good but must've been bit unsure still! :eek:

Not at all... 2A*s, 2As, 5Bs & 2Cs.. and I had 3 A-levels in law, history & music tech. LNAT was a bit above average but nothing special :confused:
All law with French law applicants were interviewed. I know I was.

the other LnFL UCL student to be on this board is -------. I met him at interview (I think it was a wednesday, and I think it was around the time of my birthday - March 16th, although I may be confusing that with a KCL event..).

My grades throughout were good - if nothing spectacular for a top-uni-law-applicant - but my final A level results were mediocre. I know exactly why though.
