Crime question was surprising - everyone expecting international or young offenders

>>
"to what extent does the criminal investigation process balance the rights of suspects, victims and society" with some statement on police powers

 

[Lethal Toxin]

Everything was going well, untill i saw the crime question, then it all went downhill from there

 

[TrentsUnicorn]

That crime question was shiiiiiit, I could've done investigation process but the that + a reference + theme and challenge was excessive

Crime question was similar to last year... I avoided that stuff thinking they wouldn't ask it.
Family questions were pretty specific
Multiple choice was hard!!!

 

[MrBleach]

There were some MC questions that would've thrown some people. e.g. the murder and which court would hear the case first

Q16 on MC :'( I had D and I was so close to changing it to B but I left it. I knew that the ICC was independent of the UN but argh I don't know why I didn't change it

 

[Sinyeta]

Wow that was really easy! Expecting a mark close to state ranking, or even state ranking! Luckily I prepared well for the crime question, so thankfully it paid off

The Crime question was nothing like last years...

Being able to use Bail, search and seizure, and rights of suspects among other things for the Crime section was much better than those pesky predicted international law questions.

I actually thought that the human rights questions were very good (touch wood).

 

[baci]

they both invited a discussion about police discretion, obviously this year's was a little more complex and they were different, but yeah there was overlap

I thought the exam was pretty easy. for the crime question i did police powers (obviously) and preventative detention.

 

[edwardf316]

Police discretion has nothing to do with the sentencing and punishment process. They are two different parts of the syllabus and don't actually overlap at all

 

[Constantine]

Better than expected.
Fingers crossed!

gg atar, all i wrote about was discretion

 

[baci]

my bad I saw someone in my class posted the question and they didnt say it was for sentencing and punishment!

 

[edwardf316]

gg atar, all i wrote about was discretion

If you wrote about it that's fine because it is part of the investigation process

 

[Fieryloks]

Can somebody please upload the paper?

Was way too easy imo, especially the essay questions.
