Bored of Studies - View Single Post - Who's afraid of the big scary law degree?

I'm first year at UWS, LLB/BA, and the first semester we are doing Intro to Law (case, legislation research and stuff) and Torts. And Torts has only 2 exams, that's it, analysing cases. Whereas Intro to Law we had to do a group research task, then followed by a letter of advice, then a case note, then an exam.
Some senior students said we are not supposed to follow this curriculum, that we should do Law Foundation and Intro in the first year, then do all the other stuff.
Now I kind of appreciate the fact we are already in Torts, because it makes my first semester less dry.
And if I get a transfer to UTS or Macquarie, I will get an exemption for the 2 units I've done, no more Torts to torture me.
