Which NCA elective exam is better to write?

Which NCA elective exam is better to write? Property, contracts, civil procedure, torts, tax, commercial?

This is an excellent question and the answer will vary depending on your objective. For example, some students may wish to simply choose the ‘easiest’ elective. However, figuring out which of the exams are ‘easy’ is not necessarily clear or easy to do as the level of difficulty can be an entirely subjective experience.
