you would have to do some form of qualification here in Australia in order to practice law here.. So it is a waste of time doing an overseas qualification if you dont intend to practice in that country.

Slater and Gordon would accept a Usyd law grad over a Harvard law grad imo (obviously depending on the position in question, i'm talking about a general graduate position)

i'm sure UNSW is not unique in this respect. if an undergrad is capable, there's no reason to deny him/her enrolment in a postgrad course (to the law school, they cost exactly the same amount of money to run anyway).

Nah, you can do it at mac too. I'm not sure if they mark your assessments as a post-grad student though...

we're talking about LLMs in the ordinary, postgraduate sense.
