yeah i think so too, i think if you get below like a high 97, they are basically looking at what LAT u got to enter u in. Everyone i know who got (comparatively) shit atars and are currently at UNSW law did well on the LAT.
no u dont. if you come first in the state however, you get a nice certificate and a phone call from either the premier, the head of nesa or the education minister.
depends on uni but this literally only happens if you get like a 99.9 or 99.95 atar (Chancellors award at uSyd or Jillian Segal Scientia Scholarship at UNSW)
I honestly agree with this. This has to be said. Too many people fall into the trap of grinding for a high atar or a state rank in a particular subject when really, it doesn't even matter beyond getting you into the course you want or maybe providing a few tutoring dollars in first year...
Yeah where abouts do you live? There are many excellent public libraries in the north shore, inner west and ryde area. Also State Library is pretty good too (its convenient as well, right next to a train station), and WSU parra south campus is also rlly good, literally right next to parra station
dw can relate. try your best and overcompensate with other subjects. trust me in uni it doesn't matter if English was ur worst subject, literally dont need to be good at English to do any degree except for a literal arts degree to do well. I am doing law myself and even though I didn't band 6...
essentially was giving up hope coming up to the hsc, after finishing hsc exams lost all hope of getting into my dream course. I felt like I fucked all my exams so badly.
than jan 20th rolls in, I get my HSC results and im met with a shock. I made my course.
doable, depends on school and ur own motivation rlly. I know ppl who went to schools clinging onto the top 150 and now they are in prestigious degrees at Usyd like law and med.
eek kinda looking rough given that ur subs (apart from modern and business) aren't the best scalers. ur basically looking at 93+ aligned for everything and at least mid b5's for buss and modern
get a real and I mean real good understanding of the concepts, cram as many stats as you can into ur head, practice applying those two things to trial + hsc essay questions in timed conditions, and do that consistently from now till trials and hsc. give it to ur teacher or someone good at eco to...
not a lot, anecdotally from my experience at law school I have only met 1 person doing eco law (that's out of about 80 or so law students I have come in contact with so far, and there are abt 300 law students starting in a cohort, according to the dean of the law school)
That is something you can do as an employee too. there is nothing stopping an employer and employee of having such a clause in their contract allowing them to tutor outside privately as well.
Can't you just pay in cash or something instead if you are really concerned. There are a million ways...
don't feel like this should dissuade you. yes coming from a selective school I can testify there is a competitive environment but its friendly competition, not dog eat dog I hate you kinda competition, and generally speaking the new kids I've seen coming into the school have adapted pretty well...
