    Hi. Why is over and above the legal/natural duties considered to be exempt from privity of contract? Sorry I still cannot understand the concept of privity of contract.

    I am still under this topic with OPentuition and have no previous knowledge on LW ENG, can I buy the revision kit as early as now? I have no schedule yet in taking LW ENG since our local CBE has no schedule yet for next year.

    Cindy, you have me confused! Where have you read / heard that ‘acts over and above …’ are exemptions from the doctrine of privity of contract?

    Such ‘acts that are over and above a legal, contractual or natural duty already owed’ are examples of ‘sufficient to merit the title of “consideration” ‘…

    … but, to the best of my knowledge, they are not illustrative of exemptions from the doctrine of privity

    Better?

    You ask “can I buy the revision kit as early as now?”

    You most certainly can and, once you have it in your possession, open it and start practicing … even before you have finished reading your study text

    You need to spend 70% – 80% of your study time in that revision kit

    (5% – 10% in a study text and 10% – 25% in the opentuition resources (lectures and course notes))

    And, of course, post again in this forum and I shall get back to you

    OK?
