    student teacher relationships

    Why is it the english teachers are the alluring ones.. Anyway, unforunately for you if you're between 16-18 it is a crime, which could make the teacher liable for up to 8 years: http://www.austlii.edu.au/au/legis/nsw/consol_act/ca190082/s73.html - "special care" defined under s3(b)...

    law scholarship speech help!

    Some thoughts: what does the law actually do? how does law govern every aspect of society? what type of legal system do we have? --> (adversarial system) --> consequently, why are lawyers important? how does law allow commercial exchanges? --> law of contract -->...

    full fee paying help

    Um, no that is not quite true. If you transfer you transfer with everyone else in the non recent school leavers category at the end of the year, through the UAC. There are as many chances of transferring from FEES to HECS as there are from HECS to HECS.

    arts units in arts/law?

    Degree structure If you start at UNSW arts/law from the beginning, just follow the guidelines. First year take the 3 subjects a semester from different arts schools. Then next year do whatever arts you like. If you transfer to arts/law they may be lenient about what constitutes as credit for...

    Law Question [torts]

    Sue both. Of course, the Supermarket will probably have more money. Closest I can think of is Franklins Limited v Hunter [1998], but that doesnt have multiple respondants.

    Is the Law logical?

    Language is the most important key to law. That said, you need to be able to reason well too, so logic abilities are important. In my opinion however there isn't that much I can see a mathematical background would bring to the learning process in law. Philosophy courses in logic will equip you...

    Law Question [torts]

    I agree with my brethren Lazarus CJ for the reasons given in his spiel :) I would add a few words on the following: (a) False imprisonment on the part of the security guard For false imprisonment there must be total restraint, entailing no reasonable means of escape. Certainly...

    Which Uni has the best B Arts course?

    Sydney has the reputation of being king of arts (specifically I can only assert fervently that USYD owns UNSW in the philosophy department). But if you're doing a combined degree, I'd go for what uni you think is best with the (other) combination. Eg. if you want to do arts/com, the commerce...

    requirements to become a solicitor

    Briefly: You do not necessarily need a law degree - "It is also possible to become a legal practitioner by completing a course prescribed by the Legal Practitioners Admission Board" (although the probability of a firm hiring you without a law degree is questionable). After graduating in law...

    Should I do Extension 2?

    If you love writing, and you have some skill in doing so, then definately do it. It scales well, and it isn't hard. Compared to 2U and 3U English, I found 4U much easier - its just a matter of grabbing hold of inspiration and getting the words on paper so you can refine them. Keeping the...

    Reflectrion Statement + Mjor Work

    Can you show where that is in the marking guidelines? There are definite splits of 10, 20, 20 and 50% for all the assessments. The relevant marking guidelines in no way stipulate that the reflection statement and major work are weighted equally. Further, it doesn't make sense that it would be...

    Reflectrion Statement + Mjor Work

    No, that is incorrect. The major work and reflection statement are marked together, yes. However there is no prescribed split between the reflection statement and the major work as such. In fact, only one of the four objectives in the marking criteria relates specifically to the reflection...
