Some Common Student Mistakes in Answering Questions http://wp.me/p3NRQu-6n

Dear Colleagues, I selected this answer to illustrate how many students can be (and have actually been in previous exams) been derailed by the use of language which is reflected in the criteria regarding knowledge of the law AND presentation.

A student asked: Dear Sir, I was going through a past paper and attempting a damage to land question. The question featured an issue where the cost of repair of the home was higher than the cost of purchasing a new home of comparable structure.
