Crime q. - if you neglected continual detention mandates, role of victim in sentencing and rates of recidivism in the prison system and circle sentencing, it's not good
Family q. (b) - I was pretty judicious in what I memorized and it payed off; discipline, parental neglect, shared responsibility (2006) and maintenance as enforcing parental responsibility
World order (b) - had to adapt alot, as I didn't even want mess with sovereignty - r2p as emblematic of evolving attitudes; instilled division in sc (darfur, Libya, Syria) and discussed changing ethical standards in treaties; multilateral compliance

I could lose maybe 3 marks for multiple choice
In response to the crime question, I feel that there's other stuff to talk about and there isn't anything that is 100% necessary to put in. I spoke about the purposes of punishment, and how the judge uses his or her discretion to balance the rights in regard to these. I also spoke about mandatory life-sentences for killing a police officer in NSW. However I did mention victim impact statements and recidivism rates in my response.

It was something like 'to what extent does the UN promote and enforce human rights. Refer to a specific example'
I just wrote crap about UN General Assembly, Secuirty Council.
You could've also wrote about state soveriengty and how that means the UN is ineffective etc.. but I didn't write that.
For my example, I wrote Suddam Hussein and Iraq - how the UN imposed sanctions on them

If you guys think the CSSA multiple choice were hard you should have seen the Independent paper. I think I got like 12/20 for them and by far the hardest multiple choice I've ever done for legal :/ But our human rights questions were easy. What was the crime question like?

I don't think my legal exam was CSSA.

I wrote more for the crime section of mine than I did for Family and Workplace. I'm screwed.
