Re: The old end of semester / mark prediction thread ^^ Yeah, I'm considering that. Any excuse to live in Europe :P Not interested in the Asia Pacific, which is what most Australian unis focus on. Give me international human rights! How much longer do you have left Rob? Mike, we should have a...

Re: The old end of semester / mark prediction thread You too Mr Second Class! :) When do you graduate?

Re: The old end of semester / mark prediction thread I'm a graduate! April 22nd 9:30. And I got LLB Honours, too! Yippeeeee! My uni life is complete... for now... until I'm suckered back in by the appeal of an MIR (not at Mac, they've already taken 5 years of my life).

Oh. My. God. That was supposed to only take 3 hours - the same as a sit down. What a lie. It took me 15 hours of solid work. My brain is fried. Totally disgusting. She is so mean giving it out at 2pm. I fell into bed at 4am, up again at 8:30. but... I HAVE FINISHED MY LAW...

Nice thought Rob :) Congrats Mike, I'm so happy for you! I would like to read it... maybe you should publish it on here? :) Steve finished his thesis last Monday (the 13th; he's been counting down the days since January!) which was very exciting for the both of us. Now I have my normal, happy...

I couldn't agree more! I had to email the admin lady, who took 2 weeks to get back to me to get that one sentence of information! The old handbooks (like the 2004 one) mention it right at the beginning, but of course the law dept change the requirements every 3 years or so.

An LLB has the Honours component built into it. So if you get the marks you can automatically get second class, but if you want first class you need to complete an additional thesis (either half- or full-year, its up to you). I've never heard of an Honours interview? The Honours programs I know...

hehe, yes I thought the same thing, too. Quite demanding criteria... it shows the high standards required by the Mac Group ;)

This job might interest those out there who didn't score a clerkship. It is advertised on Macquarie Uni's "careerhub" site... but I thought I'd share :) Employer: Macquarie Group Limited (ITG) Position: Paralegal / Summer Student Added: 03-Oct-2008 Closes: 13-Oct-2008 Hours: Vacation Payrate...

Gah, I flagged my interest just then AFTER I completed the survey this morning... so you'll be getting a blank survey response from me, but I really did do it. Honest :)

Re: Don't miss your chance to be part of the unveiling of our new image... Phew! I am way too gullible :o But its funny what comparison does; I don't think its nearly as bad now... still confused about the choice of the Star of David. Will we still get the nice, normal, mature "M" on...

Re: Don't miss your chance to be part of the unveiling of our new image... This is what our logo should be. It makes much more sense. Asy, perform your photoshop magic! We'll submit it to the PR Dept.

Re: Don't miss your chance to be part of the unveiling of our new image... Um, are you serious? When I saw it I thought it was some evil character from Sailor Moon or Mario that Mike appropriated as a joke! Hmm... At least they're accommodating to our large Asian student population with the...

Yeah, I had my year 10 formal at Curzon Hall. Its pretty spectacular but you need a lot of people to fill it... and I want a max of 40 people at my wedding! It would echo with that few people ;)

^^^ bahahahahahaha!! That made my night :D Absolute gold! I think you should send them to U@MQ to use. (Is that the groom in the background? Or one of the aforementioned random background students?!)

You. Are. Shitting. Me. The most unromantic place to have a wedding ever. EVER. U@MQ must be floundering financially. "Have your wedding at Macquarie! We can guarantee you'll have students roaming in the background because our international students don't actually live anywhere. This will make...

I haven't had a sit-down exam in nearly two years :uhhuh:

Steve and I had to turn down Open Day, too. The dude who called up about it sounded like a try-hard doosh to me. Plus, all the good old originals have gone (Dina, Tempel etc). I was considering rocking up just to go on a camel ride :p I've always been too busy working to go on one!

Yep, totally sure. I have a friend who just came back from being in the US a year and he was talking about how there is no motivation to put any effort in because regardless of whether you get a P or a HD, it just says "satisfactory". I guess as long as you kill the core units (especially...

Congrats IWR! You always amaze me with your quick typing abilities. You'll do well in a high-pressure firm one day! I hope Tim marks mine, too!! melsc you're right, it doesn't count to your GPA at all. It says "satisfactory" (pass - HD) or "unsatisfactory" (F) on your transcript but no mark is...
