The reason why law candidates are so stressed is because they think that they have to memorize the entire exam analysis, or that they need to know every knowledge point in the book. But in fact, if you master most of the knowledge points, you can cope with the exam. No one can fully master test analysis. If you are reviewing carefully and you are worried that there is still a lot that you have not recited, please remember that what we have to do is to master all the knowledge as much as possible, and the exam does not require us to master and recite every knowledge point. . Below are some tips on memorizing legal knowledge that I have collected. Let’s take a look!
1. Common recitation types and precautions
(1) Monk chanting type
Many candidates recite like He keeps mumbling words, which sounds a bit like chanting to others. These candidates usually stand in a corner or sit in the classroom to recite, which sometimes arouses resentment from the candidates sitting next to you because you disturb others.
(2) Shaking one's head and shaking one's head
There are also candidates who hold books and shake their heads while reciting, which has the meaning of ancient literati studying hard to gain fame.
(3) Reading aloud type!
There are also candidates who read loudly in a corner. When we were in elementary and middle school, we often read aloud in the morning to recite an article.
(4) Silent memorization and dictation type
There are also candidates who retain their physical strength and memorize silently without making a sound, but they are reciting a certain knowledge point in their hearts and reciting it silently. In order to enhance their memory, some candidates use a pen to write down the knowledge points after memorizing them.
There are many ways to recite, and it is difficult to say which way is right or wrong. As long as it suits you, it is right. However, try not to influence other people, otherwise it may easily cause resentment or even conflict. ,
2. Misunderstandings and precautions in reciting
Some candidates believe that reciting is word for word and even punctuation marks must be analyzed with the exam. Or it may be consistent with the recited material. In fact, this is wrong. You are being harsh on yourself. I have repeatedly asked many teachers who have participated in the grading of the Master of Laws, and the answer I got is that the grading of the Master of Laws is based on marking points. As long as you answer the core knowledge points, you can get high scores. Therefore, we believe that you must realize the following points:
First of all, there is no need to recite a certain knowledge point verbatim
For example, the knowledge point of "unjust enrichment", we Generally, it is necessary to recite the concepts and components of this knowledge point, but we do not need to remember every word.
The concept of unjust enrichment: Unjust enrichment refers to the fact that there is no legal basis for obtaining benefits and causing damage to the property of others. In the concept part, we only need to write: unjust enrichment, no legal basis (basis), benefit obtained (obtained benefit), damage to other people's property (loss to other people's property), facts. It is enough if it contains these keywords, and even these keywords can be replaced with similar words, which will not affect your high score.
Conditions for unjust enrichment:
(1) One party obtains a benefit. The benefit obtained by one party refers to the increase of property. The increase of property includes two situations: positive increase and negative increase.
(2) The other party suffers losses. The loss suffered by the other party can be the reduction of existing property interests, or it can be the loss of due benefits when the property should have increased but did not.
(3) There is a causal relationship between the benefit of one party and the loss of the other party. The causal relationship here is that the loss of the other party is caused by the benefit of one party, that is, the benefit of one party is the cause of the loss of the other party.
(4) There is no legal basis for benefiting. No legal basis means that one party's benefit has neither legal nor contractual basis. The absence of a legal basis includes the absence of a legal basis when the benefit is obtained and the legal basis for the benefit being acquired but subsequently lost.
In the characteristics part, the core thing is to remember the first few words of each characteristic, that is, one party gains benefits, the other party suffers losses, there is a causal relationship between one party's gains and the other party's losses, There is no legal basis for benefit. In fact, the beginning of these four characteristics is a complete dismantling of the concept of unjust enrichment. You can completely organize the explanatory sentence or two sentences after each characteristic period in your own language, as long as you don't make the core mistakes. During the grading process, the grading teacher will first check whether you answered the concept correctly, and then check whether you have written the first few words of the description of the four parts of the characteristics. The grading teacher will also check the explanatory text part after the characteristics. You won’t read every word. You can pass it by just scanning it at most. As long as there are no obvious errors, you will definitely get a score of 80 for this short answer question. If your paragraphs are neat and your handwriting is neat, you will get almost all the points for this short answer question.
It is a good thing that many candidates have strict requirements on themselves. However, the law is not completely memorized by rote. The law does not require you to be a repeater. The law requires you to master the law and apply it correctly. Therefore, as long as you are familiar with the law, If you have enough knowledge and understanding of a certain knowledge point, you will use "French Language" in the process of expression. As for the specific expression of the knowledge point, you can organize it yourself.
Secondly, not every knowledge point needs to be recited
The professional master's degree in law was established in 1995. In the first few years, the test questions also included fill-in-the-blank questions and true-false questions, and the propositions were too backward. . Starting in 2004, the real question types for the Master of Laws were perfected. In other words, it has been fourteen years since the more advanced question types for the Master of Laws were tested this year. Through more than ten years of real examinations for the Master of Laws, we can also find some patterns, that is, generally speaking (it cannot be said with absolute certainty), the major questions that have been asked by the Master of Laws in the past one to four or even five years are repeated. The possibility is unlikely.
Take the short-answer questions on civil law as an example. Starting from 2013, a short-answer question on the intellectual property part will be tested almost every year (the short-answer questions in 2017 did not test intellectual property, but on analysis. (Part of the question was about intellectual property). Let’s take a look at the short answer questions from 2013 to 2016. Are there any that have been repeated? In 2013, the test was on “Legal Characteristics of Intellectual Property”, and in 2014, it was on “The Difference between Neighboring Rights and Copyrights”. In 2015, the test was "Specific Types of Service Inventions and Creations", in 2016, the test was "Types of Patent Right Objects", and in 2017, the analytical question was "In my country, trademarks without registration are not protected by law" (the analytical question has been canceled in 2018).
In this case, we can completely "do something and do something not to do" or "emphasis on what is important and belittle what is important" in the process of reciting, but we cannot adopt an "even rain and dew" attitude towards it. Exam analysis or memorize every knowledge point in the material one by one without distinction.
It is recommended that all candidates must conduct a comprehensive study of past papers before reciting them. Candidates who have not yet been edited by the master of law are asked to complete the papers in the shortest possible time. At the same time, please carefully study past papers. The knowledge points that have passed the subjective questions are marked on the test analysis. By studying the real questions of the Master of Laws, you must do the following: 1. What knowledge points have been tested in the major questions of the Master of Laws in the past ten years? 2. How are the subjective questions of the Master of Laws tested? Short answers, legal articles, and case questions , and what are the common pitfalls in analysis questions and essay questions in comprehensive courses? Why did I not see these pitfalls in the process of doing big questions, which led to incomplete or wrong answers when I did subjective questions? 3. Various subjective questions How to answer big questions, how to segment and layout the answers, and how to make the answer paper neat? How many words are appropriate? 4. Excluding the subjective big questions that have already been tested, what other test analysis or recitation materials are there? The knowledge points are very important and there are likely to be big questions, but you have not passed the real questions in the past ten years? If you can do these four points in the process of using the real questions, congratulations, because you are already a qualified Candidates for the Master of Laws, because the prestigious law master's schools are already waving to you, and your score of 230 in professional courses is slowly coming towards you.
If the candidates have fully studied the real questions, then you can be "targeted", and your review and recitation will be more targeted. You are also capable and qualified to focus on reciting the subjective knowledge points that are likely to be tested in the 2018 Master of Laws exam. You can also effectively eliminate some subjective questions without memorizing or just understanding these knowledge points.
Reviewing is a process of slowly reducing the burden. Reading will become thinner and thinner as you read. This is also true. Students, please be smart and reduce your recitation burden.
Again, the recitation of subjective questions for the Master of Laws requires you to understand the knowledge point before reciting it
Only after you understand a certain knowledge point will you know what you are memorizing. If you If you just recite the subjective questions of the Master of Laws as classical Chinese, you will have memorized a lot of knowledge points of the subjective questions, but in the process of answering the questions, you will not know what the knowledge points you recited are or you will not understand them thoroughly. , then you may answer incorrect questions or miss the target and only answer some peripheral knowledge points. This is easy to lose points. For example, you were asked to answer "abuse of agency" but you answered "no authority to act". Every year, some candidates feel that they have answered the subjective questions very well during the score evaluation, but when their scores come back, they think there is something wrong with the examination. Many candidates answered every subjective question well, but the final result was not what they expected. I believe that the core reason for this situation is that when answering the subjective questions, the questions are not reviewed clearly, especially when the recitation is recited, the knowledge points are not understood, so the review is not done well when answering the questions, and they just make themselves "stupid". Knowledge points that "swallow" are written indiscriminately among the answers to questions that should not be written.
Slow work produces careful work. Of course, we do not ask you to review slowly. We require you to review quickly and efficiently. However, review is not a simple manual labor, it requires scientific steps. For example, when studying the direction of the real test questions, in order to speed up, you can do all the real test questions within a week! This is no problem! When I took the master's degree in law, I only left the latest three years of real test questions there and went there carefully on time. I finished the real questions from other years and checked the answers in four days. I also marked all the big questions or multiple-choice questions in the test analysis. I remember that I was so busy doing the real questions in those four days, and I did a very good job. I was so intoxicated that I didn’t even want to eat! This was the first real question, and I really finished it quickly under high pressure! Of course, for the subjective questions, I just briefly wrote down the key points of the answers, not a complete answer, especially for the case analysis questions. I learned how to analyze cases and how to use the key information provided in the cases to solve problems. After completing the real questions, I discovered that there were many detours in the previous review because I was too entangled in some partial knowledge points. Too much time wasted. Only after doing the real questions can I know where the key points are, and where I should focus on understanding and memorizing. After completing the real questions quickly for the first time, I then went to read the test analysis in a memorized format, that is, during the process of reading the analysis, I reviewed the knowledge points that I had not passed the big questions but were likely to take the big questions. Understand and recite. Then I did the real questions for the second time, mainly reviewing the wrong questions for the second time. On the third time, I started memorizing the subjective test materials.
Many students have a misunderstanding and have been making excuses for not doing the real questions. For example, they have not finished memorizing the questions, so how can they do the subjective questions? How can they do it if they don’t know how to do the subjective questions? What about the big questions on the real questions? For this reason, they pretended not to do the real questions until a few days before the exam. Unfortunately, it was already too late!
The mentality is also very important. You are very decadent now, when you are very anxious now, what we have to do is to master as much knowledge as possible, but we do not need to force ourselves to master every knowledge point. As long as we are studying every day, we are really studying every day, instead of sitting there silently in a daze or thinking in the name of studying, or sitting in the classroom with mobile phones reading news and gossip, or boring men and women studying in the name of studying. If you chat or even talk about love under the banner, your future will not be a dream.
The pursuit of progress every day, the pursuit of rising every day, what we want is efficient review and progress, not necessarily climbing to the top of the ladder!
