What it is
Practice for “Explain how the source material will apply to…”
Section A gives students the law. The marks are for using it. Only 2 of every 10 marks reward identifying the law (AO1); 8 reward applying it to the facts (AO2).
Each scenario has a source (statutory extracts and short case summaries), a story about three people and three 10-mark parts. In every scenario one person is clearly liable, one could go either way, and for one a key element is probably missing. Spotting the difference is the skill the exam rewards.
- For students taking Cambridge International AS & A Level Law (9084) and their teachers
- Nine 10-mark questions with lined answer pages and element checklists
- Nine annotated model answers with AO1/AO2 margin tags
- Levels-based marking guidance and indicative content
- Teacher notes for a lesson, a timed mock or peer marking
