How do I revise the whole of the specification? There is so much reading!

The best way to approach the almost indefinate amount of reading is to work smart: Begin with the basics and elaborate from there. the main principles are the foundations of legal knowlege so make sure you understand those before you approach the more nuanced areas of law. examiners are looking for, first and foremost, the correct application of the basic principles; without this knowlege, your answers may not actually address the questions asked. Next, approach past paper questions. exam papers will rarely 'throw a curve ball' so to speak, and you will often be able to predict the nuanced areas of the subject where questions may arise. The best way to address this is to make a list of common past questions and plan out your answers accordingly. Finally, repetition is key. break the content up into manageable chunks; maybe one or two sides of A4 and repeat them, testing yourself regularly until everything is covered. Try not to panic. You will feel like this takes too much time but you will tend to cover a lot of mateial quickly in this manner.
