What resources are available to you? Library, computer rooms, e-learning tools and videos accessible online: invaluable resources.The library, for a lawyer, proves as important as the laboratory for a chemist.To be a good lawyer is above all to be able to find the relevant information for resolving a dispute, drafting a contract or advising an investor; it means being able to identify the applicable regulations, the appropriate case law, the relevant doctrine.The Faculty of Law library provides free access to legal collections and works.

More information How can you prepare for writing an academic paper? At the start of the second term, several writing workshops are organized.

Each session is given in small groups. How can you prepare for the exams? Study regularly, acquire good methods, but also get to know the teachers' requirements and their way of questioning.In the first year, formative assessments are organized at the beginning of November in certain subjects. Teachers correct your papers, comment on them and organize group or individual correction sessions with assistants. These tests do not play a part in the marks awarded at the end of the year. They are merely a training tool, enabling you to appreciate the high standards set by your teachers, and to judge the effectiveness of your work and your ability to handle an examination situation.As soon as you start your studies, you will also benefit from specific preparation for oral examinations.After the first year, you will adapt your effort more effectively to the nature and importance of each subject on the syllabus. As a result, you no longer benefit from regular questioning, other than as part of the exercises. Exam organization January, June and, if necessary, August... three sessions to prove your mastery of the subjects.In January, you sit the exams on the 1st term courses. If you fail, you can retake the relevant exam in June and/or August-September. Three chances to succeed, but only in the first bachelor's year. From the second annual block onwards, any exam failed in the January or June session is automatically carried over to the August-September session.According to the choice of teachers, exams may be assessed in writing and/or orally. Assessment procedures are detailed on the university website and specified during the first class.
