Thank you a million times.

God bless

folake4u:
Oh I see. I'd start forming my notes this week sef. Our externship is in March.

Alright, I'd focus on the principles and its exceptions then. Thank you for this timely tip.

@past questions. I'd do focus on 2015-2021 then.

Jeeez! I'd have to learn all Civil Litigation drafts? Those things are bulky oh.

Yes, I know that Charges is a compulsory question in Criminal Litigation. The Lecturers said it also.
Do you know about any compulsory question in Corporate Law Practice?

Thank you so much.

Goodluck with the externship

I can't think of any compulsory questions for Corporate Law Practice, just study past questions and know what to expect. Also learn how to fill the CAC forms appropriately

The 'my notes' i referred to are those handouts on each course containing summaries of all the topics that are sold in the campus. That was what we used to call them, but if you believe making your own notes would suffice, then that'll be okay

Best wishes...i know that God willing you'll be part of the fold

folake4u:
Thank youuuuuuuuuu so much.

You've been most helpful. I'm grateful for this advice.

Please I want to ask a question. Reading textbooks isn't necessary right? Because to me, it's bulky and time consuming.
Then again, we were told to just focus more on the principles of law, that cases and sections aren't that important. Under exam condition, how can one cite the case(s).
Is it like in Uni days where we'd write the facts and what the court held?
OR
See Mojeku v. Mojeku for rights of females to inherit properties

Please I need to clarify this.

About the MCQ, I'd focus on it and time myself when practicing it. This means I shouldn't focus on year 2009- 2015 right? Cos it's Hella bulky too!

Thank you for the tip on the CAC form too.

Thank you so much Sir.

The three tips i posted above were the only things i did to pass, though i used summary handouts i.e 'my notes' for support. I honestly didn't use a textbook, though they contain broader info.

Citing of cases and sections aren't as vital in Law school as in Uni, but knowledge and application of them help as well. You should definitely know the Principles and exceptions

If you study the past questions, you'd observe that Law School questions are applied questions and knowledge of Legal principles is a must

I advice you focus on 2016/2017-2021 past questions

I forgot to add, learn ALL drafts in Civil Litigation because you'll be required to draft virtually all. In my time, we drafted nothing less than 20 processes in the exam

Also learn CHARGES in Criminal Litigation, it's definitely coming out

In Professional skills and ethics, learn how to calculate legal fees, among other things.

folake4u:
As in ehnn! Thank you oh, Ma'am Dogged fighter.

Na NLS wahala just full my brain WALLAHI.

Hello

I'm a lawyer and i studied in Lagos campus

I'd like to give you some crucial pieces of advice:

1.Study past questions, preferably, all of the preceding three to four years i.e 2017 - 2021. Study each of the years distinctly and for all courses, do so religiously. Doing so would actually help serve as a guide to preparing for your Bar finals

2. When answering MCQ questions, make sure you split the time evenly for all courses, because just an hour is given to answer 20questions each in all five courses. I strongly advice that you start by answering 10 each from all courses and thereafter attempt the remaining. Succeeding in MCQ is pivotal in passing the exams

3. When writing Corporate Law Practice, you'll be asked to fill a form on registering a company etc. Ensure you fill ALL slots, leave none empty

I honestly believe this is expo for you, i'm actually sure about it

I wish you the best in your quest to become a new wig

Munamoqel:
nice but other regions are putting human development first .while we host over 1.4 million out of school kids in Kano .over 80 percent of the state pipe borne water system is not working anymore .this 5 bn naira could have used to eradicate child begging .

If you knew what you were saying, you would have known that begging has been banned in the State for sometime now

obanioluorun:
what you are saying is absolutely nonsense, and what is so special about sanusi? Or because the north respect the poor qualified people then the south should follow the steps, even your almighty El rufai us a confirmed illiterate because he lack global presentation and submission, if I may ask you what he sanusi the terrorist from
Kano doing in Abeokuta the Yoruba land?.

There's nothing special about him

my almighty el-rufa'i? if el-rufa'i is an illiterate then you're definitely not even qualified to talk...only breathe

Go to where Sanusi went to and see if you'll be accorded the same reverence he was given. Heck, see if you'll even gain access there as an omoluabi. lol

Sanusi has more authority than you and many of your champions on your cherished 'yoruba land'...Fact

Deeprooted:
This is the only northerner I still hold in high esteem!

He is not a religious biggot like millions of others in his region.

He still reasons like a normal human being

One thing that's funny about all of you who make this exact comment or similar kinds of comments, is that though you look down on Northerners, they don't in anyway even consider you as equals

Infact, they see you as beneath them and even Sanusi would disown your praise of him

Funny

Hateandthunder:
I thought nothing is too hard for God to do. What's the excuse now?

All humans are created to die, so what's your point

Is it today children started dying?

Did God say children won't die?

All that happened was God's decree

and as for the question, do you have evidence that God chose to save the boy and yet he still died?

The same God created life and death...He determines both for all

Ladycewhy:
Yes you heard me right, men don't like you, they like your biological makeup ,they may like the fact that you have a vagina , womb and breasts but as a fellow human being , they don't like you.

Let's look back at history, in the days of old, Virgin girls were a thing for sacrifices and blood gift to the gods, then came the snatching of babies frome their mothers all in the name of twins was an abomination, then there was the selling of their daughter all in the name of bride price and the only time she was allowed to return to her father's house was in a body bag.

Still in doubt if men like you as a human first?

Ok then came the widow maltreatment, then there was a concensus to mutilate the vagina of women just to keep them under control, then came the refusal to allow them go to school. Still in doubt?

Do you still doubt the anti women campaign going on in this forum and even on the streets? Have you checked the ratio of ritual killing and see that women are the most victims?Have you heard the phrase " daughters of eve, fish brain, after devil fear women?" Well I am sure you atleast get the picture .

All these didn't happen everywhere

In certain locations, women were even rulers and legendary warriors e.g Amina warrior queen of Zaria

As for ritual killings, women are easy targets, it's easier to bait them

It's not that men hate women nowadays, it's that women now are becoming more like men and men feel less obligated towards them

The chivalry is dying

eduj:
that you can bet , doesn't mean you will win or your assertion is true -kid.

A wiseman once said; when I was a kid ,I thought like a kid.

so even if your old enough to be my grandad (Jehovah rest his gentle soul) ,your thought level is still that of a kid.

I have had just a single account on this forum, am not a troll ,and online trolling isn't an occupation . It reeks of immaturity to boast of having numerous Nairaland accounts-and for what ? ethnic hate and slander -grow up .

if you're an example of the so called collective intelligence in this nation, then something is wrong.

I care less for present politics- my honest view is that we let you other guys continue the good job of running Nigeria underground. Don't surrender it to us please - you guys are doing mightily well...

My gross is that enough of all your mendacious insult on the Igbo. Vote whom you will

Can you pinpoint a single post from this account that amounts to trolling?

I have nothing against Igbos, but i do have a problem with irresponsibility and slyness

wish you well sir

eduj:
you have 17 posts till date. Do you want me to state the percentage of them that is based on Igbo antagonism ?
yet you write of arrogance- that's the hypocrisy I alluded to.

is that what will be your biggest achievement this year (Igbo phobia) ?

Get a life kid-trust me,your out of your element with me.



our elders will say that a child carried by the mother doesn't know that the journey is far. That the baboon that laughs at the tomato because it's red color makes it easy to spot ,also forget's that his red buttocks makes him easy to spot by the hunter.

Time will surely answer all questions and truth will always prevail

First of all, this isn't my first account on this forum, i've deactivated much older ones

secondly, i can bet that i'm older than you

Thirdly, giving your people a reality check isn't Igbo phobia

Fourthly, my message isn't hard to get, it's simply that you Igbos are getting and will get, only as good as you give...you want regard, stop trying to be clever by half

You can start by respecting our collective intelligence by not trying to baselessly blackmail and armtwist us into guiltily surrendering the country to you

okay?

eduj:
typical of a hypocrite

Typical Igbo arrogance

aribisala0:
Do do know that it was the sardine that entered the tin by himself , locked it and left the key outside.

eduj:
we're the only tribe in this country to have fought to secede.

the only tribe with a political body trying to secede

and in both occasions, most other tribes and the government fought and killed us.

so yes, if as many of you online bigots believe,that were nothing good or productive or as aptly put by an ignoble Fossil-a dot in a circle, why not let us go ??

if you're not willing to do what it takes to secede, then stop disturbing us

From all what you guys claim, you should with your much parroted intelligence, know your way out

you say you fought a war to secede, a war you brought upon yourself through a coup and your subsequent actions

pressure your secessionist bodies to ensure they do more, we have no stake in your goals

VaselineCrew:
This is what is so fascinating about the tribal hatred we have in Nigeria.

You hate them so much but you never want them to leave.

Igbos hate other tribes as well but at least they want to leave.

So how can you hate people sooooo much, like burning hatred, but you mock their desires to leave.

Can such mentality really solve problems?

So you have a problem, but never want that problem to leave?

You have COVID, but want to keep COVID forever.

You have malaria, but don’t want the malaria to be cured.

This thinking is so irrational.

how many times did Igboho seek national support for his agitation

how many times did boko haram seek nationwide support to secede

ijaw nation nko?

you Igbos are the only ones calling on your zoo enemies to support their cause

smh

EastisBae:
For those trying to blackmail Igbos that agitating for Biafra again post 2023 won't work if we are denied the presidency, hear this and hear it now; the agitation is rather going to take a more resolute and dangerous dimensions!

Here are the reasons:
1. There is no reason why Igbos shouldn't be allowed to rule in 2023 because everything makes it perfect for them now. Failure to endorse it by other Nigerians will prove to both die-hard Biafra agitators, moderates and pro Nigerians alike that Igbos would forever be treated as second class citizens.

2. It would be difficult for North to succeed itself and also difficult to allow SW to rule again since they've ruled enough, so denying Igbos that haven't ruled for no other reason than we are Igbos won't be acceptable.

3. Agitating for Biafra is an ideology that comes from the mind. It started because Igbos felt they weren't wanted in Nigeria. The perception rose to dizzying heights when Buhari emerged and opened old wounds. If you can notice, why it is reducing again is because Igbos are seeing an opening that there is a chance that we would be reintegrated into Nigeria like it was prior to 1966. However, if that hope is dashed, mark it today that it would be extremely difficult to tame the agitation ever again. And if you think Nigeria can't break, then I'm sorry for you. Nigeria is already facing extremely difficult times and it is not going to end anytime soon. The state is already weakened and a massive force pushing for breakup would be hard to stop.

It is not a threat but common sense, no section would be treated how Igbos have been treated since 1966 and they still believe in the same country. The same yorubas claiming to love Nigeria are doing so because they feel they're getting better deals. Let them pass through what Igbos have passed through and see if they would still love Nigeria.

Do you know what politicking means?

The advocates of merit don't want it in politics, they favour quota system instead...the irony

If not for Nigeria's magnanimity, would Igbos have bounced back after the war? Make we hear word jo

It's funny how your justification for an Igbo presidency is always accompanied by ultimatums and threats...only you guys believe you're owed, no one else does

My advice:

decide if you want biafra or Nigeria because you're only doing yourselves

goaldynboy:
Who are you and what are you to dictate conditions for Igbo man?!

It's obvious that too much ewedu and amala have blocked your brain!!

i'm common sense which apparently many of you lack

you Igbos are only fooling yourselves thinking you matter

McGg:
You're senseless for asking me to use my sense..... And which god are you talking about.

A god that will allow you to have accident, crash your car and maybe destroy someone source of living, then make you come out unhurt just so that his name will be glorified..

did He beg anyone to glorify Him?

ask the guy who glorified Him if he was promised by God that he'll be accident free

like i said know God, don't evaluate Him based on what you think He should be, doing this will also make you know what life is about

you're currently just full of ignorance and hey, the same God is yours and you'll definitely know...whether you choose to believe or not is irrelevant

i repeat, use your sense, you have it

i'm muslim by the way

McGg:
Where was God before the accident occurred.. You were just lucky

only one who doesn't know God would ask this question

this world ain't heaven, here, trials happen and they either shape you or break you

everything happens as God wills it, leaving Him is folly

use your sense

gwafaeziokwu:
Peter Obi, the man Nigeria sorely need at the moment. The hyenas will do all in their favour to stop him. But it's all in the hand of ordinary Nigerians to throw their weight behind the man who has the capacity to put all political lunatics delaying the destiny of Nigerians in the Asylum where they belong.

A man that brought real democracy and development in a very stubborn state like Anambra, can turn the fortunes of Nigeria.

The man Igbos need in Biafra

An Igbo man emerging as a candidate in next year's election is tantamount to rewarding truancy

A lot of Igbos spent the better part of this dispensation being treasonous, but now want to pretend they deserve to lead the country they disavowed repeatedly

Igbos need to prove that politically they can be trusted, Nigerians need to believe that their lives can be entrusted to them, anything short of that is self-delusion

Honestly, the only Igbo man i'm comfortable with is Rochas and the comfort doesn't extend beyond the vp slot

EnemyofGod22:
Jesus Christ, Angels, demons, Satan and God doesn't exist, there's no reliable verifiable concrete approved evidence of their existence.



Heaven and hellfire doesn't exist.




Know this and have peace of mind.

oga calm down, just die first, hell no far

the fact that you believe that nothing and i mean, absolutely nothing, can form even just a human being, is a testament to how unintelligent you are

lets take the eye for example

you mean to tell me that the retina just happened to form on its own, same as the pupil, also the lens and all other components and after forming, they just happened to perfectly come together in a working sequence to enable sight? and to top it off, the same eye needs light to see and just like that there was light to enable it function?

Have you ever in your entire existence or any known existence, heard of components(not even non existing ones but existing ones), just coming together systematically to function? That's literally the same as keeping separate pieces of a watch disassembled and then with no assembler or maker, expecting the watch to perfectly assemble by itself and work

No one even needs to tell you there must be a God, your God given brain should tell you so

There are entire, advanced level research works written by renowned medical experts on 'how the human eye works', this fact alone is a marvel and we're only talking about the eye, what about the rest of creation then?

How stupid does it sound that geniuses marvel at the eye and it's capabilities, yet the same people believe that it came about just by chance....in a word, it's absurd

Gadafii:
Dem really show this guy shege, he wanted to end the Boko Haram menace, Dem no gree am

yeah, he was quite passionate about it

IjapaTiroko:
My Adamawa colleague said this guy founded what metamorphosed into Boko Haram today. He said many of the terrorists were Shettima's political thugs who he abandoned.
A similar situation will be Tinubu abandoning Lagos NURTW after winning election. The outcome will be grave on Lagosians

not him, you mean Senator Ali Modu Sheriff popularly known as SAS
