Who is the Wills & Succession poster for?
Wills & Succession belongs to the Law section rather than to a school year, because law & society is not something one grade owns. Anyone learning property & equity can pin it up — a beginner, a student mid-course, or someone revising years later.
When should you use the Wills & Succession poster?
By will if valid, by intestacy rules if not. A wall chart earns its place by being glanceable from where the work is happening, so Wills & Succession belongs on the wall where that law & society work actually happens, within glancing distance, rather than filed away.

What size does the Wills & Succession poster print at?
