section 117 according to my textbook chrisjb
I have a question of my own regarding 10 mark questions:
I just did the 2006 legal studies sample exam and I didn't run out of time, but I was severely lacking in terms of it. I doubt it's my time management, more how much I write for some questions and the speed with which I do it, but I only had 20 minutes (give or take) for the 10 mark question and, averaging 8 words a line (way too lazy and it's stupid to count exactly) I got about 320 words (about 1 and a half pages of the lines). I've been told by my teacher it's meant to be essay length, in fact, he told me it's meant to be an essay, so what do people on here think the minimum amount of words and points you should discuss are
could I just ask people to not say 'it's quality over quantity'. I know it is, but there's probably an absolute minimum. also, when we make a point e.g. "common law provides flexibility" and we criticially evaluate that point by discussing a weakness simultaneously, would that count as two points or still just one? (i'm under the impression we need around 4 points in our response as legal seems to be two marks for one point in most other questions)
