COM: 35 Questions in One Hour

Halls of Power
I have just got back from splendorous Putrajaya after walking in the Halls of Justice.

At 2.30 pm, the examination started and this time they were very much more professional. The briefing did not eat into exam time, not like last year with that jabbering officer.

Interestingly, it was all MCQ and to my judgment it was a breeze though they threw in some barbed non-law questions.

I finished it in record time of 30 minutes and left the hall in triumph with God's blessings surrounding me. I was in cheerful spirit.

Fair Lady of Justice
Believe me, it was great to have all those calun  sitting for the exam watching you leave the hall. Two more candidates left after me. Magnificent trio!

Not like last year when they killed us carnage-wise with a 90% subjective question format.

So, what is the exam all about this year?

Let me recap......

Three questions was on the Chief Justice, two questions of fees, a question to test your understanding of the doctrine of the separation of power, some questions of qualification, appointment and reappointment, change of business address, power to inspect, details in a register, some test of the Statutory Declaration Act, 1960,  duties of a Commissioner, the Malaysian Constitution,display of appointment letters,appropriate text of powers, conduct and duties, power of revocation,some mathematical computation of fees to be paid  for affidavits and exhibits and penalties.

Fate Awaits 
What could be troubling are those answers with options like:

a) I, II and III
b) All the Above
c) Only I and II
d) Only II

So, if you are not good in your memory work, it could be daunting.

I was however amused by questions on the diameter of the seal and the dimension of the name tag. Not many would know these dimensions because these are truly not legal matter question but meant to outsmart you with retort like, " Got ya!".

They need to test more on substantive legal matters and not design specifications.

I spoke to an elderly candidate (Not that I am any younger) and he told me he took a similar examination in January this year and thought he got at least 90% of the answers correct. Yet he got a dukacita letter that he flunked!

Well, I do not know whether I aced it this time though I want to believe so.

Anyway, let me think about setting up shop if I do passed with God's grace.
