If u remember the section, u must quote it

First write about the section on which ur answer is based. Then write your answer, the question is asking about.

Never quote a wrong section. If you dont knw just skip it.

divide ur answer in 3 parts. first one is reference quote if u remember section number, otherwise simply write as per the provisions of the act. don't forget tittle of the act must be correct along with year

Divide the question into 4 sections 1st one is facts of the case, second one is section of the case,third one is analysis of the case, fourth one is conclusion

second one is provisions contained in the act. write the provisions in act related to the question. write provisions as it is in the act , don't write in simple language. third one is conclusion . give ur answer to question like by applying above provisions of the act we conclude ....... facts of the case is optional if u have time

No Such requirement of referring to sections. However, it is recommended to quote.

My Suggestion is,

" 1. Don't observe memorizing the sections as an additional task. Just try to read a related "Case Law". If Possible, go with a benchmark Case law(Supreme Court/High Court). It might help you to remember the section well. Also if the same case law is asked, then it helps.

2. Also, Make a List of the Chapter wise Sections and have a good revision of the same.

3. You need not remember each sub-section. Just try to remember the section."

But ever and never quote wrong sections.

The biggest advantage of quoting sections is that it will impress the Exam evaluator. It might fetch you an extra mark. I hope we all know the value of even one mark in CA exams.

I hope the above things might help you...
