Busl250 Exam... paper-take-in-thing (1 Viewer)

[Skittled]

Hey guys..

In the last lecture I remember trish saying that we could take in TWO pages, BOTH double sided of typed text for the exam? Despite the fact earlier in the year she said One, but then also she said it could be typed, and the unit outline says handwritten, so I'd not be surprised if they changed it again without giving us proper notice.

Anyway, I've emailed Trish: she's not responding. Tried to find my tutor's (shirley) email address this morning, but can't find it online -- the mq website doesn't have it, and y unit outline where I wrote it down is... somewhere.

SO. Could someone email their tutor if you have their email address and ask what the go is for me?

once again the lack of administrative efforts in the subject just piss me off. i'll have a look for ya steve.

edit: i emailed the following people, patricia.blazey@law.mq.edu.au
joseph.cleworth@law.mq.edu.au
alex.low@law.mq.edu.au
john.selby@law.mq.edu.au
julie.zetler@law.mq.edu.au
alma.urbiztondo@law.mq.edu.au

we could have called them, but its a public holiday!

no I didnot say that I said one A4 paper and you can write on both
sides. Do not make the mistake of bringing in more as they will be
confiscated. I have told you many times 1 sheet.
good luck in the exam

There ya go. Must have misheard her...

 

[destination]

yep its 1 page, can be typed or handwritten on both sides...

 

[redruM]

One A4 sheet of paper you can write on both sides or write and type I do
not mind

[sukiyaki]

thank you for clearing things up
some others uni's get open book =(

 

[redruM]

its better with notes imo. you have condensed all the lecture notes. otherwise i know i would have just taken in the lecture notes.

 

[boinkBOINK]

what you guys plannin on puttin on this?
i dont know what i should put and what i shouldnt
=\
what cases? any tips guys?

 

[redruM]

as much of lectures notes as possible.

converting them into laymens terms is going to take ages.

 

[*hopeful*]

yeh lect notes and case references i guess
thats bout all we learnt

 

[Skittled]

I've got lots of dot points from the textbook, so basically all the logic an ifs and buts out of the textbook is on the paper. Don't know that I'll fit that level of detail for all chapters, so I'll cut out what I don't need.

Figure we'd be better having more information on Partnership, so we can waffle... or just know it well, and have some cases written down.

Contract, I'm putting as much in for everything as I can fit in the smallest size possible.. would ratehr have too much than not enough...

 

[boinkBOINK]

hey can someone explain what consideraion is
im gettin confused here
or maybe its the lack of sleep or thereof

for the partnership question
do u think we'd need to know case names and stuff?
need to know what i should put in and what to leave out
=\

 

[choco]

consideration is that something of value that you exchange in return for a promise...hope that helps!...oh btw how much on exclusion cluases do we need to know?

 

[Orange Juice]

yeh isnt considerion just what you get if thats in the contract... ie 100$ ?

 

[redruM]

i think the $100 is the promise and the act in return is consideration

 

[choco]

something of value must be exchanged btw the parties..for there to be consideration..

 

[boinkBOINK]

hey guys u know the chapter on capacity?
on the infants how its can be classified as
it says "except in nsw, contracts with infants my be classifed under one of three headings"
"valid, voidable, void"
do u think we'd need to know them?
im needin to save space here

also do we NEED to know the years of the cases as well? or isthe names enough?

 

[Skittled]

Boink, Names is enough, we don't need years. Just remember they can be void, valid or voidable if you can. I'm not sure that she'll do something with minors, but then, don't take my word for that

Choco, we need to know everything in the book about exclusion clauses. Just learn it: you'll be better off for it than if you try and write it all down...

 

[boinkBOINK]

hay what did u guys put down for Agency?
im havin trouble fitting it in
and whats relevant and whats not
think we'd ned to know the cases for agency?

I'll be revising agency as of monday afternoon. And partnership, and everything else. Will let you know what I've put in there, once I'm done, if you like.

Don't panic, guys, there's tonnes of time!
