Anyone know where I can find some free criminal law practice exam questions online? My subject reader only has a few. Thanks :)

Yep, first trimester is still at Clayton. Starts at the Law Chambers after that

Thanks, what a quick reply

I got in! Really excited to get started :)

Had the interview today. I think it went quite well but we'll have to wait and see. I'll found out in about 2-3 weeks.

Just being a postgraduate degree, I assumed they'd expect a bit more from applicants than those applying for an LLB for example

What kind of legal knowledge will they expect me to have? Hope they don't ask me anything too specialised

Haha, I guess that's true. Thanks for the tips

Hi all. I haven't posted in a while but just have a question. I've been invited to an interview at Monash Uni for their JD program. Just wondering if anyone knows what types of questions I'll be asked? Is it just an extension of what the application form covered? Also, I'm guessing that they...

Just wondering if those of you who have been working at law firms, etc know whether a JD is seen as equal to an LLB in terms of getting a job? I'm considering enrolling in one due to the specialised subjects and flexible timetable. Thanks in advance

I called the Admissions Manager directly on 9905 1464. According to another staff member I spoke to, the cut-off for a CSP place was 80%. Thanks for all your posts. I guess I'll just have to see. The only thing I'm worried about is this adding extra stress to the situation...

Hi all. I posted a thread here with some questions a month or two back, just a bit of an update. The average for my degree which I graduated from last year was 73.2. My first preference was for grad-entry Law at Monash Uni which I missed out on in first round offers. After speaking with the...

Congrats, I missed out. Hope I have a chance for second round

My average for my degree ended up being 73.2. I really hope it'll be enough. Does anyone have a better idea since it's only a few days away?

In short, I'm pretty sure they don't. If you're transferring from one degree to another, they'll look at your uni grades and ENTER. If you've completely finished one degree and are applying as a graduate, they only look at your uni grades. They place no weight on what you actually studied, just...

[/SIZE] Well I'd hope to maintain a distinction average but from what I've heard, law assignments/exams are marked quite harshly so I guess I'll see how I go. Lol well I'm the type of person that wants to do everything at once I guess. Sucker for pain I am. When I say write, I mean freelance...

Well the fees for one, isn't it close to 50k all up? Also, I think the LLB will give me a better and broader understanding as there are less compulsory subjects (the JD has a lot I think) and more scope to try different electives, etc.

I'm applying for the graduate-entry program and the law faculty said that "mid 70s" is usually required to get in. My average is 74, I really hope that'll be enough. With the Melbourne model coming in though, my guess is that it'll become a bit more competitive.

Thanks for your advice, you made lots of good points. Well it was handy to get another perspective on this. Some uni websites claim 10 hours per subject, per week which I thought was a bit much. The only thing is that my current degree was almost all assignment based. We had a few small...

Hi all, great job with these boards. Lots of really informative posts. I just have a few questions in regards to studying/working in law. 1- I've applied for the graduate-entry law degree at Monash. I was wondering if anyone has applied for this recently and knows what kind of grades they...
