Property law 1b exam tomorrow. It will go fine if three of the questions are about easements, mortgages and TOLATA. Otherwise, I'll fail. I hate how this degree is all about luck.

It's not if you actually cover everything though. (I have never done this and relied on luck exclusively - and successfully - throughout my studies)

Does it make you mad to know that my degree had trusts as one tiny section as part of a much bigger course?

Really? Whatever module I study, I get attacked by trusts.

Much less pervasive in Scotland. Tracing isn't even a thing.

I haven't the slightest clue what tracing is yet! We have semesters for equity and trusts next year, yet my uni is blogging us down with half of this semester focused on trusts! Wish I studied Scots law instead of English law now :frown:

Can you question-spot? I mean, I've found by looking at the past 3-5 years of past papers in a subject, I can work out what I can and can't drop. Obviously there's then an element of luck involved in how nice the questions in my chosen topics will be but I've yet to sit a paper where I have genuinely been completely unable to answer 4 questions and that element of luck appears in every degree, I think. I've never thought of question-spotting as luck - just forward planning, allowing me to revise efficiently. But then, this may not be the same at your uni?

For what it's worth, you were right about David Henton. I've realised why I was mistaken as to one letter - "David H..." (my version) used to be principal of my sixth form.

Sadly he was replaced before I got there, so I'll never know whether thinking of him as a crazy cat guy is justified. :rofl:

Tbh, it strikes me as something they weren't expecting us to know anyway. Or rather, they knew it was in his textbook but it's very easy to reason to the same answer so if you didn't know it, you could reach the same conclusion regardless.

(I don't even know who David Henton is!)
Anyone studying the gdl at college of law this September?

Hi I'm hopefully going to LSE for my L.L.B in September! Really looking forward to that :smile:
If anyone happens to know the intricate details of how Laval [2008], the Posted Workers Directive and choice of law in employment works in conjunction with strikes and TULRCA and feels like explaining it to me, I will love you forever. I spent over an hour trying to get my head around it and trying to veer away from attempting to apply Latvian law to a problem question...

If it's any consolation, I've finished my degree and only have a month or so before the LPC starts...
