It’s time to transition from looking at the evidentiary rules and principles, to considering how to attempt past exams. This episode we’ll review the rules of evidence that we’ve discussed, with a special emphasis on approaching legal problem solving. There is also a guest appearance by a very loud bird in the background. In our next episode, we’ll move on, at last, to ethics.

You can find the notes, and other resources, here.

You’ll find past exams published by the Vicbar (and suggested answers) here.
