[QUOTE="Aspiring.lawyer.to.be, post: 31934, member: 3931"] I’ll be honest with you. These modules were difficult. BUT I chose these modules because I enjoy corporate and commercial work. The workload is very similar to the core modules. I was taught at Ulaw and I can say the teachers were really good in explaining everything. You have to make you keep up with the reading and consolidating all your notes. I think these modules are popular with magic circle law firms and international firms - firms which practice in areas of corporate and commercial. I did find it hard but I took it as a challenge. Make sure you ask questions if you don’t understand anything. Banking - there was a LOT of banking jargon that you need to be familiar with. M&A - it was more about understanding negotiation positions of each parties in an M&A deal. Also, it was heavily contract law based. Public companies - to be honest, I personally found that it was very DRY. I chose this elective because I enjoyed the business law core module. Although I liked the main overview of the teaching. I found it very hard to motivate myself due to the large amount of rules you need to know for the exam. My main tip would be again to make sure you consolidate. Public companies are heavily regulated for a large number of reasons and thus, it is essential to have this many rules. (But not necessarily fun to study it). The above is my personal views and purely honest. I hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
