Although, the exam is open book but this strategy made me confident about exam because, I solved without bare Acts. Moreover, before few days of exam, I purchased mock tests from Amazon and solved them with the help of bare Acts and I noted time for my each attempt. In this way, I learned to manage time in exam as; it is the most crucial part of exam.

No, one cannot get a CoP without having passed the AIBE if one completed his or her education with an LLB degree in or after 2009-2010. Passing the AIBE is mandatory for those who want to practice law on their own after completing an LLB degree from any recognised institution.
