(I might have overlooked something) I would add one other thing for first class hons., you need at least a Credit in your research unit in addition to...

    Commerce Graduates

    I am going to resurrect this thread. The judgment has been handed down and the student is not guilty by reason of mental illness. R v Xinfei Gu [2009] NSWSC 1305 (27 November 2009)

    Macquarie Law any good?

    BUSL is from the ECFS/BESS department and not from Macq Law School. Some law students view it as a watered down version of several law units crammed into a fob/cashcow-friendly manner.
