ABSTRACT

The majority of law exams are unseen exams, which means that you will not have the questions in advance. Seen exams are exams for which you have either been given some or all of the questions or the exam paper itself in advance. There are two other main permutations as well, which are that the exam will be a closed-book one, meaning that you will not be permitted to take any materials into the exam with you, or open-book, in which you will be permitted to take in some materials and to refer to them. You need to be clear on the type of exam you will be sitting and prepare accordingly.
