Features: "The judicial exam is harder than climbing Mount Qingcheng," as the judicial exam continues to reform, candidates may increasingly feel this sentiment. Although Volume 4 is important, reviewing it can be overwhelming for many candidates due to its strong comprehensiveness and theoretical nature. As a result, many candidates only focus on multiple-choice questions and do quite well, but ultimately struggle with Volume 4. Many candidates may wonder why they perform well on multiple-choice questions but poorly on subjective questions. The reason is simple: multiple-choice questions have answer options and involve passive thinking, while subjective questions do not have answer options, requiring candidates to find the answers themselves—a form of active thinking, which is naturally more challenging.
The editors believe that the saying, "Practice is the sole criterion for testing truth," is very important for candidates reviewing Volume 4. The reason candidates lose many points on Volume 4 is a lack of practice and hands-on effort. Let’s take a simple example: legal document questions. Court personnel generally have no trouble with them—they don’t even need to review—while fresh graduates struggle. Why? For the former, legal documents are part of their daily lives; for the latter, legal documents are still just textbook material. This illustrates the issue of proficiency. Therefore, before deciding to write this book, the editors found the most effective way to tackle Volume 4—doing a large number of practice questions. Of course, doing questions requires method, not just brute force (otherwise, it’s like working hard for nothing). If candidates feel lost or lack a clear strategy when reviewing Volume 4, choosing this book is a great option.
173 case analysis questions! With answers, detailed legal explanations, and problem-solving approaches! 10 legal document questions designed to help you break free from the pile of documents! 30 essay questions, all with reference answers, to help you master the essence of essay writing!
"Large volume" is one of this book’s key features, as only extensive practice can truly help candidates master knowledge; "targeted practice" is another, as only focused practice can maximize efficiency. Beyond these two features, "summarizing patterns and strategies" is another goal the book aims to achieve. We hope this book will provide a breakthrough in understanding for those reviewing Volume 4.
In addition to these distinctive features, the book’s layout has been carefully designed to better assist candidates in understanding and using it. Below is an explanation of the book’s structure:
1. Chapter Arrangement:
- The book is organized in the order of Volume 4’s question types: case analysis questions (brief analysis, analysis), legal document questions, and essay questions.
- In each section, the question patterns are prioritized. Because "knowing yourself and the enemy means victory in every battle," the judicial exam is also an intellectual competition. If candidates grasp the exam’s question patterns, they can avoid unnecessary detours in their review. This section also shares our research findings, helping candidates use their efforts wisely.
- Review strategies are provided for reference. While strategies vary from person to person, the judicial exam has its own inherent logic, so most strategies share similarities. This section is mainly for candidates who lack time to study the exam thoroughly, serving as a guide to help them stay on track.
- The most closely related to "exam strategies" is—answer strategies. We place answer strategies at the end of the final review guide, hoping candidates will understand the first two aspects before studying this section. Answer strategies differ based on question types, offering a comprehensive guide while highlighting common mistakes. This part is especially useful for first-time candidates, who should study it carefully.
2. Question Arrangement:
- Instead of placing answers directly after each question, all answers are compiled at the end of the book. We believe practice requires hands-on effort—just looking at questions and flipping to answers will never improve skills.
- Each question is followed by a point value, and the answer section includes scoring standards, aligning with exam requirements. This helps candidates evaluate their performance objectively after each question, adjust their review strategies, and boost confidence.
- Brief analysis questions include answers, legal explanations, and problem-solving approaches. This structure allows candidates to identify their mistakes after checking answers, preventing repetition and reinforcing knowledge. Analysis questions only provide reference answers and strategies, as they emphasize thinking methods.
- Only 10 legal document questions are included, but all are designed based on our analysis of question patterns. This avoids brute-force memorization and reduces wasted effort. Additionally, fixed formats for legal documents are highlighted in bold in the answers to aid memorization.
- 30 essay questions cover key points across disciplines, with some fixed templates highlighted in bold in the answers to help candidates master essay structures.
In summary, the book’s arrangement is designed to closely align with the judicial exam, fully reflecting the depth and breadth of Volume 4, and serving as a reliable guide for candidates. We sincerely hope this book will help candidates achieve the best results in the shortest time and wish everyone success.
Writing this book was a challenging task, and imperfections are inevitable. We welcome any feedback from readers.
