tis alright devil girl i was relying on legal studies as well and i dont think i did too good, as for maths i was expecting to do good since i do extension but i did so so so shit and 2 unit and i hope i alreast get a pass mayb that will get banded in the band 4's lol...just wishful thinking..........on the good side english wasnt so bad

 

[DarkPrince_87]

what there was a scholarship and a cadetship with a law firm...y on earth wasnt i informed...stupid rural schooling dont get nothing

 

[DarkPrince_87]

nvr heard of it, which doesnt phase me too much because i dont think ill get a UAI of 70 let alone 90+

 

[DarkPrince_87]

devil girl...hmm...I think alot of people are in your position worrying about satisfying that last point of the criteria for a cadetship/scholarship.

I got a cadetship position for next year (even though I wasn't ever planning on actually doing it) I don't think I can muster up the marks to get 90+ now anyway...

btw...i put legal aid!!! As if that's not a mechanism which enhances one's access to the legal system!

there's my two cents

Legal aid provides access to justice for those who are financially lacking. In Dietrich v Queen, the assumed right to legal representation was shown.

Dietrich V Queen demonstrated a recognition of the need for legal representation to ensure an accused recieved a fair trial - according to McKinnes V Queen, no absolute right to legal representation exists, but the LAC Act i think has some provisions and highlight the role of the LAC in providing legal rep to the disadvantaged
