Whilst it is possible to prepare your work the night before, it would
usually require you to work until 3-4 in the morning. The workload
of the BPTC is significantly larger than university, with each tutorial
often requiring reading + memorizing 3 pages of laws and
procedures. Plan your work in advance.
Students must understand that the BAR is fundamentally different
from uni. The Bar is not about searching for smart or intelligent
answers, but rather the “right” answer after analysis of the facts
and application of the law/procedure. “Wrong answers” do exist
and are dreadfully common. In certain cases, a “wrong answer” can
be so wrong that it is a “fatal flaw” or “red flag”, which will cause a
student to instantly fail the exam, regardless of marks ( I know
people who have failed exams in this manner, so tread lightly).
