There are two reasons for this. First, company law has become a quasi-core subject with students choosing it because they regard it, not unnaturally, as an essential requirement for pursuing a career as a commercial lawyer. The fact that many students may not have the skills best suited to studying company law never seems to put students off and is often at the root of a poor to mediocre performance in the exams.
