Title: CORPORATE LAW EXAM - Advice, resources, opinions whatever please share!
Post by: emb_23 on June 09, 2013, 05:50:11 pm
So Corporate Law exam on wednesday, I'm a bit stressed as I'm doing this as a breadth and as a science student my writing skills are probably not as good as commerce and arts students who are doing it and used to writing essays. I'm still in the processes of finishing my notes, I've never had an open book exam and would appreciate other peoples advice or even passing on extra resources and or notes would be great to add to my collection of notes so far!

Hi, I'm sitting the Corporate Law exam too on Wed too. I'm a commerce student, but I've barely written any essays or anything like that throughout my degree (may be a bit different if majoring in management or something), so I def don't think you're disadvantaged in that area!

Can't really provide advice given I'm yet to sit exam haha, but what seems to have been working for me and my friends is writing the notes (you learn lots by just doing this!) and then attempting all the practice exam questions. It gets a lot easier that way :)
Goodluck!

How have you guys structured your notes? I don't think mine are holistic enough, I basically covered them lecture by lecture haha.
