For young lawyers just starting their career, he advises that he learned early on there is no substitute for hard work and “getting the law into my head”. The law, he says, is not a profession for the “superficial, for show ponies or the lazy”, and to be a top performer a lawyer will often have make big sacrifices in time and personal relations.
Kirby's my hero <3 <3 <3

Oh that's nice, what a mature comment...I'd much prefer to go to UWS and be unemployed than be a snob like you

as ive seen NTB post ages ago, he asked some law firm (dunno what one, but i think it was pretty good) if it matters what uni you go too, and they said no, they only employ people with a D average
That makes a lot more sense...just because you got 99.6 doesnt make you a good lawyer :uhhuh:

Ack, every firm would say that.

The guy that filters through the resumes would act differently, though.

No high school marks are really indicative in whether you can be a good lawyer. Take Jonathon A for example. He had to transfer into law for 2nd year, and that boy KNOWS HIS LAW, and has the passion for it too
exactly I've spoken to him on many occasions and he knows his stuff...My teacher (who studied law) said I'd make a good lawyer :D but first I have to get into a law degree...

Yes, that's what I said. Don't quote someone and rephrase what they say, it's confusing and pointless.

It has to be noted, though, that the exclusivity culture is changing, albeit slowly.

btw, i could make out UNSW ivory (read: ugly concrete choc-top) tower from level 16 of the Supreme Ct building today (the office of the Federal Ct registry). their back offices are kickass, the view is really awesome - you see southwards all the way to botany bay! :D
