    I kind of regret not revising as much during the easer break. Definitely going to have to do some last minute cramming (which is not ideal) but I feel like that's all I can do at this point. 😩 - second year is really kicking my butt, can't wait to be done with it!

    HELP! I have just started my G.D.L., and the reading feels infinite. I am referred to various texts - for example course textbooks, periodicals and Court Judgments To be frank, I am probably printing 700 pages per week off, but frequently I have to find additional books, or references to help me in understanding those referenced materials. So, my question is how do you manage your reading? Also, are you able to do a video on how to study a Court Judgement and Parliamentary Act?

      I've been meaning to do a video like this but probably won't get time until Christmas (which I realise isn't very helpful for you!) In the mean time, the key thing is to know what you're looking for and not bother reading completely irrelevant material. Focus on finding the key facts, legal question in issue, and key decision in a judgment. I find that it's helpful to start with sources which are easy to understand (either the summary from Westlaw/ the law report, a summary from a textbook, or even just a summary you find online), work out what the key decision was, and then try to find the bit where that decision is made in the judgment itself (starting from the conclusion and working up can help). It's something which comes with time so don't worry too much if it's overwhelming right now. I remember spending half a day in the library trying to understand my first ever case!

    Hi. Thanks for the video. When you talk about normative arguments, are you referring to the introductory parts of the module?

  • @AMiah-jz8uu

    What do you mean by a normative text book? And reading that point do you mean I should understand the contextual issues in law?

    Very inspiring, would you have soft copy law notes or materials from any subject you would share with me? I'm a law student in Kenya and it would be of really great help. Thanks!

    Hi are u becoming a barrister and if u are then what do u think about pupillage. thanks

      I am hoping to become a barrister. I'm not sure what I think about pupillage yet apart from that it seems very difficult and expensive to get there! I imagine my experience (if I manage to get a pupillage) will depend enormously on which set I end up at :)
