Transfers to USYD and UNSW Law (1 Viewer)

[M@C D@DDY]

i was just wondering, all the unis want 95+ UAI and a distinction avg in first yr studies to transfer into combined law degrees... Wat if i choose to do law say at UTS or MAC and then transfer? Would studying law be a disadvantage to transfer because wouldn't someone just doing commerce have a much better chance of getting a distinction avg?? Thanks

Depends what you're good at, if you're good at law stuff then you'll be at an advantage doing a law subject, even if it's more demanding.

You must also decide whether you really want to do law, if so, then you should to com/law, if not, then it may be more appropriate to just do commerce and risk not being able to graduate with a law degree in 5 years time.

But hey, don't worry about such things yet, you've still got more than a month till your hsc and if you buckle down and blitz it, then you might just find yourself in your dream course one year ahead of your planned schedule

dunno.. ur the vintage yr at high maybi not us dis yr.. and also if say me on track for high 98 is it possible to still make unsw law?

Unless you're going for full fee or EAS, it's very unlikely. Cutoff's for usyd and unsw law aren't going to fall...

like wat i mean is if i knuckle down and work hard can i improve my uai by like 0.5?

Your're not going to get into UNSW/USYD with a 98.00 this year....not even with a dead 99.00, you'll need a bit more than that.

and of course you can improve your marks by 0.5....maybe even more...
