yourself the area of work where the answer must be sought. Once you have done
this, set out the relevant legal principles. Deal only with those principles that relate
to the given facts. Next, apply these principles to the facts. This is where most of the
students lose marks - they set out the law in some detail, but then do not illustrate
how it applies to the factual situation they have been asked to solve. Finally, state
your conclusion.
