That's good

What about u?

What about u?

Personally I liked question 1 more than question 2. Overall, both texts weren't too bad. I think it'll just come down to how we're marked based on our responses but I do wish there were solutions to the sample paper just so we can get that reassurance.

My main advice for the LAT is to not answer in the form of an essay but rather like a written debate. Don’t overthink the question and simply respond to the two case studies and use your critical writing skills. Make sure that the text is analysed through multiple perspectives, rather than a one-sided argument. Don’t try to impress the markers with fancy language, long words and complicated sentences. They will be more impressed with a concise writing style that is clear and succinct.

All the best!

Why is acu law so low though?

 

[jimmysmith560]

Oh wow only 72 ATAR?

 

[Ice-Cream-Man]

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, perhaps it's like not a full package or people will turn the acu blokes down when they come up to an actual job interview

Why is acu law so low though?

I'm not too sure tbh, that's by far the lowest I've ever seen

Where do you go now if you do not mind me asking?

 

[queenb_3]

UNSW, I'm studying law and commerce : )

 

[jimmysmith560]

I was looking at WSU law but I couldn't find an ATAR requirement, unlike ACU, so I'm not sure what the ATAR required is, although I believe it would be higher than ACU's.

What is your major for commerce if you don't mind me asking?

 

[queenb_3]

What is your major for commerce if you don't mind me asking?

We choose our majors in our second year I believe so I haven't chosen them yet, but I'm thinking between finance, HR and taxation.
