| Re: level of english to do law?
On top of what Lara said, much of what is required can be learnt. HSC English does not prepare you for university level writing and how to write like a lawyer this is the sort of thing university does teach you. That said the newer English is to you, the hard law is...those who English is their second language often find it harder but thats not to say they cannot combat this with hard work. Universities often have essay writing and other courses to help you out.
Just be mindful this is a course that requires a lot of reading, writing and speaking. Its not about being good at HSC english, its about having good general reading, comprehension and listening skills. Best of luck
