oh right, you're serious.
Do HSC through tafe (or back at high school), try really really hard for two years, get direct entry to law. That's the least crap option imo. You could spend two or three years doing vaguely law related tafe courses, only to be denied entry to law when they see you haven't done HSC. Man up and go back to school.

Forget HSC and all that crap. It's a waste of your time - plus uni etc it's all a waste of time. Why don't you pursue your own dreams? Do you like mountains? Become a mountaineer. Or you just like bricks and mortar, get into the construction industry. Or you like travelling, become a traveller... a backpacker you know?

Isn't his dream to become a lawyer?Omnidragon said:
"Hey i dropped out in year 11, how do i get into any law course?"
Would save us the shameless grasp for sympathy/empathy. You want us to feel sorry for you because you are stupid and acted without thinking?
To be completely honest i would be angry if somebody lost a place to do law who really wanted to and didn't throw away 2 years of their life because they decided to let you in.
Don't pretend there was any other reason for posting your life story, unless it's practice for your creative piece in the HSC.
Wait until you are 21 and get in through mature age entry if you havn't killed yourself by then.

Diploma students have a successful presence in the University of Sydney's prestigious postgraduate program. Current students of the Diploma also have the choice to transfer to a Bachelor of Laws program.
