Contracts Exam and the UCC+Restatement Forum

[pleasetryagain]

How much are we expected to cite specific sections of the UCC and Restatement on the exam? I am assuming there is some teacher dependence to this, and that when we are instructed to read a particular section we are expected to regurgitate them on the exam. But otherwise, is it necessary to quote the relevant sections throughout?

For example, when characterizing a certain fact pattern in the Offer, Acceptance, Consideration, etc format do we have to cite the sections of the UCC/Restatement defining and explaining these? How much do you incorporate the statutes/model laws into your outlines?

Would be interested to hear thoughts on this as well. Thanks for the question.

I'm interested in this as well. On a side note I'd be interested in hearing how large of a role damages will play on the exam. I'm having trouble with damage calculation at the moment lol.

You need to ask your professor; it will vary. My contracts professor specifically told us that he wanted us to cite to the Restatement and the UCC wherever applicable, but I am sure there are other professors that won't care.

Our contracts exam relied heavily on citing to the UCC. We weren't required to cite to the restatement, however. We were allowed to bring our UCC supplement into the exam with us, though, so it was actually quite helpful. I made a little index of the sections we covered in class so that I could quickly flip back and forth.

The bolded is very credited. Also make sure to know now what your professor's policy is on materials you can bring into the exam. For example, my professor allowed the UCC, the Restatement, and an outline he made for us. With NO NOTES or tabs on any of it. So a bunch of my classmates that did not pay attention to this at the begining of the semester had to go through removing tabs and whiteing out notes, or just buy a new copy of the UCC/Restatement.
