Exam-style referencing is used to reference ‘in-text’. It means that your references are inserted in the body of your text, instead of in the footnotes — as illustrated below. Accordingly, you should put a bracket at the end of a quote (where you have still included quotation marks) or at the end of a paraphrased sentence/argument, and indicate where that information comes from in short-hand. As mentioned before, references or citations in brackets will not count towards word limit. You can deduct them from your total word count.

For example, if you wrote about what (scholar) Tania Aplin said about an area of law, you could convey that argument and put the author’s name in brackets at the end of the sentence, e.g. (Aplin). Alternatively, if referring to an author’s opinion, you could start a sentence mentioning that author (e.g. Tania Aplin) followed by a description of their position in my own words, e.g. “In Aplin’s opinion…” or “According to Aplin…”.

If you wrote about a particular case, you would end the sentence with the short-hand version of the case, e.g. (Bauman v Faussell) instead of the full case citation (Bauman v Faussell [1978] RPC 485 (EWCA)). You may italicize case names.

You may choose to move your exam-style references to footnotes. If you choose to put your references in footnotes, then make sure that all the sources are properly cited in the footnotes. Whether you choose to place your exam-style references in–text or in footnotes, you are not expected to use OSCOLA guide in your references.
