to those who have done contract law: was the subject taught to you in a 'black letter' law type way?

Originally, there was one, 6 credit point contracts class each semester

They would probably include more contract theory (classical contract, etc) but a while back they introduced Public Law into semester 1 which reduced the 6 credit points of Contracts 1 to 3 credit points.

But like asqy said, black-letter contract law is appropriate

law is p.h.a.t.
the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) is a thousand pages in itself (1471 sections and counting)...

i feel sorry for us law students... massive books must burn massive holes in our little wallets :(

should be but its not. It'd be all cool except the assignments are a lot harder when its not just applying the principles.
