Hi Lara. I am guessing that you want some information regarding the structure of the course? Elder Law only involves one 1500 word essay and a take home exam. Students were permitted to choose their own topic for the 1500 word essay, and it was easy enough. However, the take home exam was very difficult as the word limit was very restrictive, with the questions asking for many specifics, which required students to actually do most of the semester's readings and also undertake a substantial amount of research.Random question for you - what's elder law like?

As for the course itself, the lecturer (Susan Field) appears to know the content very well, however, she can be very long-winded and monotonous. Classes were held on the weekend for me, and students had to attend a total of four weekend classes. It sounds easy, but weekend class attendance is not for the average bludger.
Personally, I think Elder Law is a must do elective, since Australia has a rapidly ageing population. The subject has really opened my eyes as to the multiple predicaments our predecessors are facing at present.
Are you referring to Razeen Sappideen? I had him for International Trade Law, and he is arguably one of the worst lecturers I have ever been educated by. People couldn't understand him when he was calling out the class roll. I am thinking about enrolling in International Business Transactions Law, since it is a weekend subject. Not sure whether I can stand Sappideen for 2.5 weekends, though...Sue Field sounds like she really knows her stuff though according to professor Sappideen and others so i suppose that's always a good thing
Nah, I mean Carolyn Sappideen - ex head of law school.GTR said:Are you referring to Razeen Sappideen?
