    Really stupid question from a dumb high school graduate

    You enrol on enrolment day - well, it actually does mean that the re-enrolling students get to pick their class times first, but 100 level subjects are usually first year subjects. Fake-Name: what you bring on enrolment day depends, considering that you are very organised, you might have sorted...

    On enrolment, you will get advice on how to structure your program and timetabling. Some tips: - for double degrees, consider balancing between your two diferent degrees; it's nice to be able to switch between the two different areas - plan ahead; later units may have specific prerequisites -...

    Desperately need advice from 3/4/5 year Law students

    I didn't plan on becoming a lawyer so I can't answer your question based on experience. From what I hear from other law students and graduates is that: - some students tried to pick subjects that complemented their intended area of specialisation or if they had a specific firm etc in mind, they...

    Desperately need advice from 3/4/5 year Law students

    Not too much, many law students ask for the same thing :) I don't have a particular unit code in mind - but here's some tips: - the easiest/cruisey type: any unit where the final assessment is a research essay (the best would be ones with no limit on your choice of topics, or at least a fairly...

    Just Accepted my offer. What now?

    Other than the forms etc - have a good relaxing break! (seriously! Once uni starts, it's like a mini HSC every semester) If you feel inclined to study or prepare, you can start reading books and other guides for writing essays, assessment tips etc.

    Desperately need advice from 3/4/5 year Law students

    Fair enough, I was sort of interested in the subject but found that the technical aspects of IP didn't really interest me. Overall, it's a well-run unit with good feedback, and yes, take-home exams are always a plus! Ah! So you have hit that point in your law studies where you just want to...

    Desperately need advice from 3/4/5 year Law students

    It depends on whether you are interested in the subject - I didn't really fall in love with the subject, but the cases were interesting and got you thinking about issues around what should be owned and the reason for protecting ownership etc. Overall, if the lecturer is the same, Niloufer is...

    Desperately need advice from 3/4/5 year Law students

    LOL perhaps that's because law students don't want to assure you about that unit, instead that want to give you a heads up to beware ;) Yes, most students would just be glad to have the two units over - there are many units where you have a fair idea of what the assessments and markers want...

    Desperately need advice from 3/4/5 year Law students

    Good, if you don't work at the moment, it definitely helps so does the ability to live on little sleep. Both Kelly and Iain are about the same, but I found Kelly's extensive notes really help (great starting point for showing you what resources to look for in essays etc). If you can, try...

    Desperately need advice from 3/4/5 year Law students

    Firstly, relax :) It is possible to do four law units in a semester and lots of other students do end up doing four law units. Having said that, if you are aiming for credit or higher, do expect to do a lot of work and to have some assessments due at around the same time. You just need to have...
