Re: Failed Unit in Law and why did you fail it? because u didn't like it? or didn't go to classes? if you didn't like it and didn't put any effort in, maybe law isn't for you? was it really hard for you? maybe that's just because it was the beginning of uni. was it because u were working a lot...

trains are ok but they are not very frequent. more times on the coaches. plus the train station is in the middle of nowhere (ok out of kingston) whereas coaches go right into the jollymont centre in the city, on northbourne av. as for brisbane-fly! if you book early, flights are normally...

i think u do have to complete it on the day... but i thought i had it before then. hmmm bad memory. i'm pretty sure u need to know your tax file number-if you don't have one, apply ASAP because that's how they keep track of your HECS etc. but apart from that the form is pretty straightforward.

bring extension cords/ longer network cables and power boards because there are often only two single power points in a college room, and not anywhere near where you want them. i used two power boards, and a 5m network cable, 1m wasn't long enough. and definitely stuff to put on your walls...

bad news on the draft timetable is 9am wed and Fri crim law classes for us oldies (ie 2nd years). how nasty!

and obviously, canberra is actually where the campus is, so its a chance to have a look around if you haven't before, or see the college where u are going to live that kind of thing. they have heaps of people to ask question, for every major in arts etc. i found it quite good last year. you can...

a local firm where i went to highschool offered a scholarship to a student commencing law in 2005, from the area, short story i got the scholarship, then rang them in october and said hey i'm home for the holidays can i do some work with you and i am for 3 weeks now. this is easier as i live in...

don't worry, uni ID comes with the offer pack from ANU. i had the same problem last year when applying for parking permits. but i rang the uni and after giving them details they gave me the ID over the phone anyway so give that a try if you're worried, but i don't think it'll matter heaps to...

the bars are very id checkie. especially in o-week. otherwise, when it's not thurs, fri, sat, there are often no checks. can be annoying! still quite a few people are underage, especially inter state students. most colleges organise non-drinking alternatives, and events which are at the college...

you can get away with second hand textbooks fine if the edition hasn't changed. however, if the edition has changed, it's a pain in the arse, all the page refs are wrong, in law subjects the actual law can have changed, new cases etc which old textbooks don't mention. so i would say get the new...

Congrats everyone! wow, so many ursies people. how cool! I can't wait for o-week again....ah happy drunkeness. and good to see there are still a bazillion people doing arts/law. no really, it's not that bad once you are there, lectures are pretty small. its just everyone u meet in...

i'm not sure i understand your question, but i'll attempt to answer. enrolment is free-but you have to pay the GSF of $125 which is for semester 1 only, not sure after vsu comes in. college fees-i think last year i had to payabout $1100 to confirm my place-that included 2 or 3 weeks...

just a warning-i remember at PEA day last year they told us that due to increased demand no one had been admitted with less than 95 by sending a letter. so probably a good idea to mentally prepare yourself, think of alternatives like end of first year transfer.

from what i've heard from my second year friends, everyone who gets a credit average + gets one of those letters, -i got one too- but that doesn't mean you can do honours per se, you have to go through all these applications next year (if you are doing a BA), get a supervisor, have to have...

i would definitely recommend a canberra uni, especially anu-obviously being in canberra, parlilaments etc all right there, there are internship programs you can do as part of your degree, 6 months of a year in a government department etc and they have an extremely strong school of social...

i like anu's big campus. it means i get exercise just trying to get to class, there's heaps of tress and space so you don't feel like you are in a city at all and while it's big, it's mainly flat, unlike unsw and their millions of stairs. it never takes more than 10 minute to walk to class in...

med here is only post-grad, right?

misadventure is only used when there is a problem on the actual day of the exam-illness, emergency whatever. i'm not sure about how it applies to school assessments. the effet of a successful misadventure claim is variable-depending on how much your performance varies compared to your assessment...

hey neo, did you hear (not sure if this is a myth or what) that torts is the most failed exam at anu? that and EMET? totally freaked me out when two people told me that the day before our torts exam. i'm really hoping its not true. also, i heard our 70=D is meant to be changing to bring us...

I remember reading that in the UAC guide under alternative entries. I think you have to send the letter after the UAIs but before jan 4th or something. high marks in english help. any particular reasons why you are motivated to study law. it is a legitimate path, interviews are not, HOWEVER, it...
