    Summer clerkships 2009/2010

    I'm not sure how that works, because people on here are getting rejection calls but then what if people do not accept? Maybe they have like a back up list or something because a lot of people get more than one offer and can only take one. I just got a no email from Landers, right then :(...

    Nope, unfortunately. I want Landers but am also waiting on Slater and Gordon. Will see. Congrats and good luck on the decision. How long is Landers giving? The official scheme is till the 14th I think

    Summer clerkships 2009/2010

    I had a cocktail night at Landers and Rogers last night and I really liked the sounds of the people and the place. Sounded like a cool place to work, they were really nice and committed to looking for good clerks, they even put a girl up in a hotel for the night just so she could make the...

    what is so bad about UWS?

    An example of why stereotypes are bad. Attacking my chosen career path is irrelevant to the argument. Let's keep it relevant. Re: drop kicks doing law, remember it's one thing to get into a law program, it's another to stay there, don't worry, those who manage to graduate are generally...

    what is so bad about UWS?

    Its called sarcasm, if you can't fight with the big boys don't. Lol, did you honestly not get that I was being ironic. I was suggesting that if you stick around here you may end up at the very place you hate. Lol

    criminal law - where?

    as above, In the end, any uni will teach what you need. The only thing you may want to look at is what electives the uni has offered in the past/currently offers. MQ I know currently has no criminal based law electives. Re: Criminology: its not really that helpful but may be good if thats...

    what is so bad about UWS?

    Also, I don't go there anymore, what motive would I have in talking about UWS other than to make sure that people get to see both sides? Considering that the uni's don't generally publicise how they pick their transfer students (other than saying its a combination of UAI and GPA) are you...

    You need a better attention span than that requires for uni.

    what is so bad about UWS?

    Its also funny that a lot of the arguments against UWS (lower ATAR, lower quality students, location, lack of funding, lack of prestige, only for people who don't get anywhere else) also apply to many regional universities (and I am in no way attacking them) yet most people do not say CSU, SCU...

    what is so bad about UWS?

    Quite a few UWS students get into MQ and UTS law with a decent GPA, but of course you wouldn't know that because you're still doing your HSC. Keep in mind just because you did UWS doesn't mean your ATAR was 90, a lot of people in UWS law get between 95 and 90, thus they don't quite make the MQ...

    what is so bad about UWS?

    Hmmm, because most people's parents know a lot about university. Sounds like a great elitist attitude to have, none of the above mentioned things should be looked down upon, we all have talents and they differ from others. University is not for everyone and someone should not be looked down upon...

    I am aware he is trolling, but some of the people new to here are not and believe the hype.

    what is so bad about UWS?

    I didn't think it was worth paying full fee for.

    what is so bad about UWS?

    I got straight into my law courses not that, that really matters. I could have done DFEE for UNSW, if I really wanted so in a way I did have the choice. I'm sorry while prestige is based on quality to an extent, prestige is also dependant on other things like perception. Its like brands really...
