ABSTRACT

Lecturers find themselves writing similar comments on many of the essays and problem question answers they mark. It is not that they are churning out the same old comments (or at least that is generally not the case), but that the same issues keep cropping up in students’ work. This book has attempted to show you how to make the most of your legal writing to achieve the highest possible marks. However, if you find that you are receiving comments on the need to improve your essay structure, your focus in answering the question, your references and citations, use of bibliographies and your use of grammar, then the comments below may assist a little.1 Some of these explanations have been expanded on in previous chapters.
