CA Final Law 1.5 Day Strategy

CA Final Law 1.5 Day Strategy

Law is one of the papers of the CA Final Law and is dynamic in nature. Remember that this is not a day to study the subject in depth; You have to revise the points with the help of summary notes + charts. If you have already read it, try to memorize the material through section numbers as well. Avoid any new content. We have to write the answer in proper formats like reference, provision, facts, and conclusion with reason, and try to write the bookish language in the provision part to score well. Leave proper spaces in your answer.

You must cover all the points related to the provision and properly touch on every part of the matter provided to get good marks. Remember to focus on the three major phases of the question: Step 1 - Reference with name, Step 2 - Provision (the most important part, try to write in point format and underline the keywords as much as possible in this part,) and Final Step - Conclusion (Conclude again with the help of 1-2 lines of reason and context). Though the facts of the case are also an important step, and you have to include them, the examiner step is to pay more attention to the three steps while giving the marks.

Exam-Day Tips to Write Scoring Answers in Law

1.  Start with a crisp Introduction- Start your introduction by answering the legal background or defining the concepts. It brings clarity to the examiner that you know the answer well.

2.  Accurately quote the sections- If you are not sure about the answer, write the closest number that makes your answer more impressive.

3.  Mention relevant case laws wherever applicable- It is important to mention case laws where they are appropriate because it makes the standard answer quite impressive. If you do not write the case name without full details, it still increases your marks significantly.

4.  Follow the IRAC method- Use the issue rule application conclusion (IRAC) method to help you identify the issue, state the law, apply it to the question, and close with a clear conclusion. This method provides you with a professional format for your answers.

5.  Write your answers in bullet points instead of long paragraphs- Avoid writing your answers in long paragraphs; instead, you can attempt them with bullet points, as points make your answer readable, catchy, structured, and also score step-wise marks and make the sheet easy to check by the examiner.

6.  Use headings and subheadings for better clarity- Use of headings and subheadings brings a clear presentation to your answer, so break the answer into different sections according to the question needs, like “Facts”, Provision, Analysis, and more. This will give the examiner an eye-catching answer, increasing the marks for the presentation of the answer and boosting its value also.
