'Because the OSCE in general covers a vast number of different topics, it is important to gain extensive legal knowledge in all the practice areas.

In regard to civil and criminal litigation, I believe that the attachments with the legal tests that OSCEsmart provides are extremely helpful.

Please note:  Any questions related to particular fact patterns QLTS OSCE are strictly forbidden. Such information is confidential and may not be disclosed.  

However, apart from this restriction , I will be more than happy to answer your questions and share what I know from my experience.'
