01 November 2013 What is more preferable? To right the paper in point forms or to write in paragraphs form?

01 November 2013 1. Quoting section numbers and case laws are absolutely necessary to secure full marks. Don’t think that it’s not required at IPCC/PCC/PE-II/Intermediate level.

You can see the suggested answers/compilation. They do quote section numbers and case laws in almost all answers.


2. A good command over English is also a pre-requisite for writing a quality answer.


3. Go through the Suggested Answers/Compilation to become familiar with this kind of writing style.


4. In Law, it is the writing style that matters the most and helps in fetching marks. Almost all students know the answer but they don’t know how to present the answer. If we are asked to answer a question in terms of yes/no, we can easily answer. But elaborating that same answer, using the phrases/words of statute/law, drafting the answer in a nice order are the areas where students are lacking. So fine tune your writing style.


5. Law has got its own language. We can’t write the answer in our language. Most of the students think that even if they write the answer in general language, they will get marks but it is not so. Language of statute differs significantly from general English in certain circumstances/cases.

Law has certain phrases, certain words, we need to learn them and reproduce them in our answers. Try to learn the language of law. Otherwise it becomes a bit difficult to score high.


6. Make a habit of referring to the bare Acts. It will facilitate better understanding.
