Is it the Top 4 schools in each district that go through? If that's the case then even though we lost one we're still in!
It states in rule 54:
"At the conclusion of round 4, 64 school will proceed to round 5. Thetrail will be scored using a quota system for the regions in conjunction with a winner v winner allocation of rounds 2,3,4. The round robin will be run as winners v winners and will gurantee a number close to the 64 which will continue on to the elimination rounds."
The next rule goes on to say that if there are less than 64 schools that meet that qualification, the rest of the teams will be decided from those school who have lost only one round and have the highest average scores. So it depends, but you might make it through.

Our school was somewhat unlucky this year in Mock trial. We won the first won, lost the 2nd and 3rd one by a point and we went out as winners last week against Hills Sports High. Had a great time and im disappointed that I didnt do it in year 10.

How's everyone going on this? We've made it into the next round, but were slaughtered by a very good/pedantic judge. Our XX was dour, and both sides had a few Browne and Dunn troubles.

I never knew that evidence struck from the script in EIC could be considered admissable in XX! That hurt us, but it will help us in the future.

ive got a question about mock trial. what's it like and is it hard? my friend and i asked my legal teacher if we could give it a go because we knew our school had done it before. but my teacher said it was a hassle so he didnt want to do it.

You can get some general information about the Mock Trial here

As for its difficulty, I haven't found it hard at all, it's a fun extra-curricular activity :) It may be difficult at times, but overall it's good to get into, because you really enjoy yourself when doing these 'trials'.
