[QUOTE="SportsThoughts, post: 36336, member: 2221"] This is interesting. My experience differed greatly and I don’t say that pejoratively. Legacy notes were useless for me. I had to learn it myself, because I struggled with the examples below. I found the LPC being about how to think, not what to think. I worked through the LPC purely based on the material provided to us and what was covered in workshops and did just fine (distinction overall but all you need is the pass, TC covenants depending of course). I think what most people struggle with is the application and ability to identify facts which might not be consistent across different scenarios (this is where the legacy notes fell down for me). I.e. are you able to look at a question asking whether a tenant can move a temporary partitioning in a commercial property, find the relevant clause in the lease, apply the relevant law and articulate it so a layman would understand. But in the same breath are you able to look at a plan of a residential property and think practically about the river behind it needing a flood search, based on what county you’re in needing a mining search, is there a church nearby for a Chancel search, who’s responsible for repairing the road in the estate? The same goes with the other modules. Bob wants to sell his shares in his company. How do we help Bob do that? It’s much more practical and if you’re able to depart yourself from S.1(1) LP(MP)A 1989, Lloyds Bank -v- Rossett and Inter alia, the wonderful latin phrases other law grads might be guilty of throwing about verbatim - you’ll be fine. I do echo the organisation point above, it’s demanding, not in terms of intellect but volume of work. Tabulate, highlight and be familiar with what you’ve been taught. Don’t fall behind, do enjoy it! Any Qs, drop me a line :) [/QUOTE]
