    Hey melsc.

    I was wondering, in terms of the quality of education and future career prospects in legal litigation, what opportunities Maquarie University really offers?

    Also, with respect to the latter question in comparison to Usyd and UNSW.

    I am about to sit my HSC exam, and I sort of have decided that I want to go to Maquarie Uni due to their introduction of the 'peoples & planets' compulsory unit in which I will be alble to complete a course in 'critical thinking'. However, when confiding in friends and other people that I want to attend Maquarie uni for law, I get quite a horrified look as if the Uni is horrible...

    I don't think that it is, but I think i'm still looking for assurance from actual law students at maquarie. I intend to come out as an immigration, tort and criminal lawyer, tending towards more human rights advocacy areas.

    I was just wondering if I could get your opinion which will be grately appreciated.

    Sorry for any inconveniences caused.

    and this question as well please,
    (c) If you had to defend Helen and Tom in court, what possible defence(s) to the charge of murder could you use for Helen, and what possible defence(s) would you use for the charges faced by Tom. Justify the use of these defences. (7 marks)

    helen plans to rob a bank. she needs someone to drive a get-away car. helen calls Tom and threatens that if he does not drive the car she will stop supplying him with illegal drugs.

    on the day of the robbery tom sits in the car while helen walks into the bank armed with a stolen gun. after a short wait Tom sees Helen running towards the car. the bank security guard chases and shoots at Helen. Helen turns and fires, killing the security guard.

    in speeding away from the bank, tom drives through two red traffic lights.

    (d) discuss the purpose and effectiveness of possible punishments the judge could consider before sentencing helen and tom. (9 marks)

    I got offered a once off 5k for the first year which was paid after the second semester census date. I did not have to pay it back. I don't know how it works with the ones paid per year but I presume you wouldn't have to pay them but they would cease payment once you leave? I am not sure though on what the conditions are and that would be something I would check out carefully...

    I wasn't in the geographic area for any and mine was just something to entice higher UAI students into specific courses

    Hey,
    I've got a question for you melsc. Seeing as you achieved a pretty solid UAI and went to UWS, did you get offered a scholarship? And if you did, when you transferred for UMAQ, did you have to pay back the money that was given to you?

    That was some time ago but I think it was the law handbook, your local library should have it. Its by the refern legal centre. Otherwise I think the Redfern Legal Centre also sells them online.
