Exam Hints

• It not necessary to cite the full names and citation of cases, e.g. ‘ACCC v Coles’ is acceptable shorthand for Australian Competition and Consumer Commissioner v Coles [2014] FCA 1405.
• Abbreviations for legislation are acceptable e.g. ACL, PA, CA (Australian Consumer Law; Partnership Act; Corporations Law).
• Any other abbreviations you use must be defined the first time they are used.

• Use headings and sub-headings (IRAC is advised but not compulsory) to structure your answer to make it easy for the marker to read. Remember, the marker will be marking many scripts, so you want your paper to be as reader friendly as possible so that your marker does not miss any vital information in your answer.
• Highlight or underline statutory provisions and case names so the marker can see at a glance that you have provided appropriate citations.
• If you are running out of time, use dot points to deal with the key issues that you are not able to cover in detail.
• In some instances, an issue could go either way and there may not be a ‘right’ answer. Thus, your conclusion may be different from that of the marker. However, as you are assessed on the process of argument and your ability to identify the relevant considerations that a court will take into account in determining the issue, it will still be possible for you to obtain good marks. Note: most marks are awarded for applying the law. Just stating the law will not earn you many marks.
• Advice: Open book examination allows you to consult materials so that you need not commit all the information you have learnt to memory. However, this does not mean that you do not need to study or prepare.  This guide will assist you with preparation.
