Description
  • Each question is accompanied by author commentary, an answer plan, and a full suggested answer, offering a complete guide to each topic

  • Commentaries and bullet-pointed summaries of each answer can be used on their own to summarise a topic, or students can use this framework to write their own answer, making this book particularly versatile and allowing it to be used at all stages of revision
  • Summary of each topic at the beginning of every chapter provides a useful overview of each area, reminding students of salient points as they revise for exams
  • Flow diagram is used to illustrate how to tackle problems on judicial review, allowing students to visualise a snapshot of an issue in examination conditions
  • The authors have a long and varied experience of teaching constitutional and administrative law and related subjects at different universities. Jane Kay is now Assessments Tutor at UWE and is very much in touch with how examinations are set and marked
  • The book opens with a dedicated chapter on study skills, explaining how to answer both essay and problem type questions in the examination and reassuring students, making this book an excellent investment for a student to use throughout their degree
The ideal revision aid, Q&A Public Law gives students the opportunity to practise their exam techniques and evaluate and assess their progress. The book is divided into chapters covering each major topic on undergraduate law courses, and contains around fifty questions and answers designed to test even the best prepared student. Each chapter contains an introduction focusing on important legal aspects, and a flowchart is used to illustrate how to tackle questions on judicial review. After every question there is a commentary highlighting key points, followed by bullet-pointed answer plans, and finally a model answer. The authors discuss the most effective techniques for writing examination answers and tackling legal problems, showing exactly what the examiners are looking for. The authors have a long and varied experience of teaching constitutional and administrative law and related subjects at different universities. Jane Kay is now Assessments Tutor at the University of the West of England and is very much in touch with how examinations are set and marked.
