Writing university law answers that actually score

University examiners read hundreds of scripts. A visible structure — issue, rule, application, conclusion — makes your answer readable in the thirty seconds it will realistically receive.

Cite the section before the case name. A correct provision anchors the answer even if you misremember the year of a judgment.

Leave a blank line between arguments and underline statutory references. Presentation is not decoration; it is how you signal command over the paper.
