    My tutor has taught us many section numbers for company law, such as Directors Duties 171-177. Now I have read an article on Opentuition that you do not get any marks for stating section numbers in the exam. Is this true!

    You answered the question for me on the 30 May on the chat session.
    Reason why I asked was because I read an article from the examiner stating you don’t get marks for section numbers. This is contrary to what my lecturer has told me; he made the whole class memorize a lot of the section numbers in the Companies Act, Insolvency Act, Sales of Goods Act.
    I think I will find it useful though.

    i hope you do – but I can’t imagine in what circumstance you could possibly find them useful!

    It helps me remember the law, and it impresses people, especially when I’m taking something back to a shop, ” I wish to demand a refund, for reason under S.14 of the Sales of Goods Act: Fitness for purpose.

    I think they would be equally impressed if you simply quoted the Act. The section number as well? I don’t think so. And, besides, you’ll forget them all within 3 months! 🙂
