i liked the first section and the crime part was heaps easier than the trials. the focus studies questions were as expected. a pretty generic exam overall. i bombed out on consumers but :)

so glad i read an exemplar section 1 this morning, had the exact 6 marker question in it woo.

crime was so fucking easy holy shit, so glad they asked that and not a criminal justice issue for the 12 marker.

family essay i kind of fucked, i did a) and although is was broad i kind of forgot things :eek:

dominated world order question b, 23+/25.

pretty good paper, i'll probably get 83~ raw depending on my multiple choice answers/how badly i fucked family.

I found multiple choice difficult, and the Family Law long response I picked, but that's my fault for not bothering with the topic.

Everything else was pretty easy I thought.

Board of Studies - I fucking <3 you.

Thank you for giving us such an easy exam.

How many positive and negatives did we need to have for the Bill of rights question? I had 2 positives and 3 negatives. Do you guys think that's enough?

The multi choice had a few tough ones which I'd never heard of, but overall, great exam. Considering I only started studying last night, I went pretty well.

Section 1 - 12-13/15
Section 2 - Either full marks, or maybe less 1 or 2.
Section 3 - 21
Section 4 - 21

Overall = 87%.

what did you guys get for multiple choice? My teacher did it and told me that I got Q 9 wrong (I guessed D out of B and D, but it was apparently B) Q 10 wrong (I put C but apparently it was D), Q 11 wrong (apparently it was A), and Q 14 wrong (apparently it was D).
What answers did you have for these ones?

Probably a mark for each point. It was outta six. So 3 marks for for and 3 marks for against.

What were your focuses?

I have Family and World Order.
Reckon I did better in WO though.

Overall, a pretty good exam. Although i stuffed up the natural law question with natural justice lol. Maybe three wrong mpc? 24-25 for crime. I usuall get 24s for the essays so my killer english skills will make up for the others :rolleyes:

What was the answer to 6 about the historically how were the principles of equity developed?

I don't even remember studying that one! I found that the hardest - cause I'd never heard of it!

The rest were sort of a process of elimination.

Oh. What's natural law? lol

Ihave no idea what to get for my essays cause we only just got through content before we started essay writing. Hopefully my english skills will prevail!

How many essays did you write?? You only needed to write 2 in section 3 of the paper.

this is what i had for multi choice:

1 C
2 A
3 B
4 B
5 C
6 C
7 D
8 D
9 B
10 C
11 C
12 C
13 C
14 D
15 A

By no means correct..

and imo 'english skills' deduct from legal marks. my teacher (who is/was a marker) is always like "less padding!"
