Hi There,
When answering my questions, im including case names. Do i have to go into detail about the case or is a case name enough?
Also, does anyone have any strong Tips for the F4 exam?
Thanks

June 7, 2014 at 7:40 pm #175074I don’t think I mentioned a single one case name in F4 exam. Got 74 points.
Don’t worry about the case details 🙂June 7, 2014 at 10:39 pm #175090I’m not sure if its different now (as a passed F4 a while back) but I recall our lecturer had told us that the case name is not as important as knowing the facts and principles of the precedent case in order to be able to explain an apply it to the question being answered.
There’s obviously the few case names that would be remembered through frequent use, but for those that we couldn’t remember we were told to just say something to the extent that ‘in an established case, it was ruled that…..’ and then state the facts and circumstances that justified/gave rise to the judgement and apply it to the question. That was my approach back then as it took the stress off trying to learn all those case names and let me focus on the more critical information.
Hope this helps and good luck to you all 🙂
