✍️ How to crack a 100-MCQ paper — tactics
- Half the paper is jurisprudence: make jurist–book–school–maxim flashcards (Austin’command, Hart’Concept of Law, Kelsen’pure theory, Savigny’Volksgeist, Maine’status→contract, Holmes’experience, Pound’social engineering, Rawls’fairness) and drill them daily.
- Constitutional 30: article numbers win marks — 16–46 fundamental rights, 51 directive principles, 75 executive, 131–133 Supreme Court, 144 High Court writs, 157 AG; plus 9 schedules, 7 High Courts, promulgation 2072/6/3.
- Codes 20: memorise the numbers — in force 1 Bhadra 2075; majority 18; marriage 20; adoption gap 25; civil appeal 35 days; offence classes (ordinary ≤5, grave >5–10, heinous >10 years).
- Bilingual paper: if an English stem confuses you, read the Nepali version — the model paper prints both; often one wording is clearer.
- Time: 100 minutes for 100 questions — never fight one question for 3 minutes; mark, guess intelligently (no negative marking is stated), move on.
