I feel like both specification and consideration were emphasized in our practice questions, but I can't decide which one to pick.

Omission sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it's a precondition or just something we talked about in relation to contract breaches.

I remember discussing intention to be bound in class, so that might be one of the answers too.

I think consideration is definitely one of the minimum preconditions, but I'm not sure about the second one. Maybe promise?
