    90 is truly outstanding. You should be proud and never be ashamed of your pride. :)

    How you finished with a 1st is unreal. I just did my 1st year resit for one module 😭 I know my poor mental health and bad experiences at the time made me unable to perform my best- but I still felt ashamed failing one module (by 3%🥲).
    Either way, I’m going into my second year and I’m getting myself together by watching videos like this! Thanks you utter genius ❤️

    I’ve never had 90% but usually get 65 to 85 percent, I generally think the reason most student never achieve extremely high marks is because we tend to leave things to last minute and we don’t have the time to finesse. Gramma, referencing, amount of reading done etc. I’m doing my MSc in Marketing and it’s very hard to even get 80% all the exemplar essays seem to cap at 75%, they often have great, original ideas and concepts but have silly mistakes throughout it

    thank you so much for this video! I wish I had watched it earlier on in the year, your advice is really helpful :) Also, how do you get motivated to actually start writing your essays? and when do you start to write them before the date it's due? I have a bad habit leaving it to 1 or 2 days before the due dates :/

    • @eloiseslawchannel2129
      @eloiseslawchannel2129  4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I'm glad you found it helpful! How much time I spend on an essay completely depends on how much time I have (at the moment I'm working from a rough goal to complete 10 credits a week). I think motivation is tricky because different people feel motivated by different things. I find it useful to break tasks down into smaller chunks. That way, it's not 'I have to write my essay tomorrow', it's just 'I have to read a few articles tomorrow'.

Do you have any key phrases you used to make sure you are hitting the marking criteria. I used to have that for my a levels and now I’m starting law in September. I’m currently watching all your videos 😂😂 thank you for the amazing advice and sharing with this community. Role model 😇

      During a uni term I'm pretty sure I work a normal work week (around 35-40 hours) but at least 15 hours are normally contact hours rather than just reading, and a few more will be writing/ preparing papers etc. I find it really useful to take thorough uniform notes that I'll be able to understand later. The most important thing is that you analyse what you're reading carefully :)

    Hello! I just came across your videos and am working my way through them all.
    I'm a mature student looking to study law, but first I want to see if I can actually do it (before financially committing). So what I'm doing right now is studying, reading, and creating my own assignments. I wondered if you still have some example essay questions your uni gave to you that you could share?
    Ps: I'm loving how straightforward and clear your videos are. It is much appreciated, so thank you.

    • @eloiseslawchannel2129
      @eloiseslawchannel2129  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm so glad you're enjoying the videos and good luck with your independent studying :). Lots of the earlier essays that I was asked to write for my course went something like 'read this case and discuss whether the decision developed the law in a positive way'. I believe that in first year I was asked to look at Elitestone Ltd v Morris [1997] (a land law case) and Patel v Mirza [2016] (a contract law case). Otherwise, if you have access to them some textbooks (especially revision or concentrate books) list possible essay questions at the end of chapters too. Hope this helps!

    The style you have tried to integrate into this video is extremely obnoxious and distracting. The intercuts are long and shot entirely differently to your webcam discussion. The whole inclusion of the drink looks tacky. It's not relevant, it doesn't give off the relaxed vibe you think it does. You might have had some good points but it's situated between unhelpful filler that made this needlessly long. You should consider video essays like written essays. Your subheadings don't need to take up an entire page of your document, do they?
