    Law at Monash-

    Ok. Don't make a fool of yourself in a pubic forum if your so worried about it, and if you do, try to conduct yourself with some integrity.

    Law at Monash-

    Why do you want this thread deleted? it has valuable information on it. Is it because your afraid that someone at Monash Law will see how much of a douche you are? I assure you, this is unlikely...but got I wish law schools required interviews so we could weed out people like you. But by...

    Merits/Opinions on Bond University Law?

    there is a major flaw in your argument: why would the same person slack off at the best university, but work really hard at a non Go8 university? The answer is that they likely wouldn't, the same person would likely put in a similar amount of effort no matter what university they attend...

    Important question on the LSAT

    Does the university you go to really matter?

    omnidragon, :D pearshaker has a very good point, why do you come here? No one believes a word you say. You make such stupid posts that its hard to believe that your a day over 16, then try support for them being some dubious claim that you actually are experienced. To be honest, I'm not...

    Does the university you go to really matter?

    Monstermunch: Don't take notice of omnidragon, he calls everyone kid. He seems to think its an effective way of adding credibility to his statements without actually constructing credible arguments. Truth is he hasn't said anything particularly useful since he started here, so people usually...

    Worth doing JD at Melbourne Uni?

    Looking at the statistics from a Melb study, the churn rate of top tier law firms are 40% staff renewal every 3-5 years. I imagine IP would be significantly higher than than. Consider the chances of you making to the point where the pay figures are such, let alone making it to 10 year mark or...

    Does the university you go to really matter?

    This is true. I'd also like to add that not all students from top tier schools want to go to top tier firms ;) I find it so humorous that so many posters have jumped on the top tier band wagon on this topic that no one noticed that the OP wasn't even interested in top tier firms. Monstermunch...

    Worth doing JD at Melbourne Uni?

    I love how people think that law (and investment banking for that matter) is a golden ticket. You earn more in commercial law and banking because you work harder than virtually any other profession; the statement about 14-16 hour days is correct. People seldom realize that the hourly wage of...

    Distinguishing between Ratio and Obiter

    It normally just takes practice. Some tips are: Employ the IRAC model: your ratio will normal consist of R (the Rule of law) and A (Application of the facts to that rule). So read through the case, and whenever you hit a sentence(s) that sound as if the judge is stating a rule of law (eg a...

    Monash also offers a JD that is quite unique: -Small class sizes (25~ people) -Full-time load is 3 subjects at a time, with 3 semesters a year, so you do 9 units a year. Doing 3 subjects at a time means that your workload is manageable (relatively, ha!) at any given time and you still...

    Law at Monash-

    I've provided you with evidence in that link. My answer is that, yes, you are probably wrong, unless you can explain why Monash's official mid-year intake page explicitly says: "Faculty of Law There are no undergraduate courses available for 2010 mid year entry at the Faculty of Law."...

    Law at Monash-

    Baiku, you'll find my statement is correct. You may have misinterpreted; last year in particular there were no mid-year places offered other than for Eng/Law. My source was a Monash admissions officer. In fact, this year there is no mid-year intake for Monash Law at all: 2010 Mid-year...

    Law at Monash-

    Mid year intake is sometimes available, however there is often very limited places. For instance, I recall last year the only places made available mid-year were for Eng/Law. In any case, my understanding is that you need to have done at least 1 year of your current degree to be eligible for...

    Law at Monash-

    Baiku is correct: the demand for Monash LLB has increased dramatically as a result of a proportion of school leavers opting away from the Melbourne Model. So is so pronounced that Monash have shut down graduate entry to their LLB, redirecting non-law graduates to the Monash JD (quite sensible...

    Engineering --> Law

    It doesn't matter what course you did in undergrad, selection is mainly by GPA/WAM marks, supplemented by CV/interview at some schools. An 80 in Arts is the same as an 80 in Eng to them. Your looking around 70 on the low end (full-fee place), and for a CSP place you'd probably be looking at...

    Possible to work 2-3 days while studying Accounting/Law?

    Yeah that is a fair point. I can see the worth of breaking law subjects up with something different. I also concede that it might be easier doing 2 law + 2 comm than hitting 4 law subjects at once.
