I'm very keen to do Commerce/Law at Monash next year, however I was wondering if I am allowed to take two Majors like the single degree commerce course, or only one? Thanks in advance, much appreciated and I am very sorry if someone has asked this before and I have just failed to see the thread. ]]> Law shadowbane91 http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=228631 http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=228438&goto=newpost Fri, 13 Nov 2009 12:03:09 GMT Got JD offer from both Melbourne and UNSW: ;)

Melbourne - Full fee
UNSW - CSP

Which one should I choose?? I'd love to go to Melbourne because of its reputation. However the CSP offer from UNSW is also very attractive too...

My question is - would getting a Melbourne JD (full fee) really worth it?
I am interested in International Law. In terms of career perspective - Would my chance of getting into top (international) law firms much higher if I graduate from Melbourne JD than UNSW JD (say if I graduated with the same GPA)??


Thanks!! ]]> Law TinaElle http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=228438 http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=228376&goto=newpost Fri, 13 Nov 2009 05:48:51 GMT This is a guide that is on Yale Law School's website....not sure if the billing system is similar in Australia.

In my bibliography, when I'm citing statute, do I include all the sections and subsections I've mentioned in my footnotes?

i.e.
Fair Trading Act 1987 (NSW) s.2; s.15; s.4(a)

Or is the listing of sections not necessary in the bibliography?

Just curious as to whether any law student/grads here have considered the prospect of becoming a legal officer in either the navy, army or airforce?

I am about to graduate and am considering the career path very seriously, more so in the navy.

I guess I would like to know what the training would be like, and what career opportunities would be available after leaving the defence force with years of legal officer experience. I guess what I am trying to ask is whether it is easy to integrate from defence in the private sector after a few years?

Also I know that you get posted to different areas around Australia, but do get a preference? ]]> Law argo0986 http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=227985 http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=227901&goto=newpost Mon, 09 Nov 2009 09:36:56 GMT Hey all,

I'm interested in doing Law/ Commerce in 2010. Thing is though, I don't think I'll hit that 99 atar mark to get into Usyd or UNSW.

So, in terms of quality of teaching and reputation, which uni is the best to study Law and Commerce combined?

Thanks, ur responses are highly appreciated. ]]> Law Wispybadboy http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=227901 http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=227599&goto=newpost Sat, 07 Nov 2009 05:10:28 GMT got both of them recently, how to choose? my decesion is based on the job prospect, quality of teaching and students around me, class size.

thanks~:headbang:


Oh in addition, i heard that there're many asians in UNSW espically from hongkong and main land china? how about their quantity in law school?? i'd like to talk and play with them, however i want to practice my enlish more rather than chinese or cantoness as well. ]]> Law eschew http://community.boredofstudies.org/showthread.php?t=227599
