    How do you know if you will like law?

    Nobody likes it and 'law' as a university experience isn't reflective of 'law' in practice, hence the enormous attrition rates.

    Earrings on guys?

    Earrings are gay, as is long hair, pink, black suits (scratch that, black is just lame), ties with less than 8cm blade width and those stupid Gucci-esque slip on dress shoes that make me want to stab my eyes out with a cerated knife.

    Law at UWS: any good?

    I don't know. It depends on: - Grades (D average I'd say for top tier) - Extra curricula - Who you know - Appearance (do you have big boobs/pecs? know how to dress CBD?) - Application (whether the computer picks up relevant key words and whether its eye catching, your CL/resume is appropriately...

    Law at UWS: any good?

    The whole 'what university is better' is a load of crap.

    legal dictionary

    Thoughts on Newcastle Uni Law Program

    Piss off pleb. OP: Newcastle is the same as any other university in that the curriculum is dictated by the supreme court. It has an advantage in that the diploma of laws (which everyone must do to become a practicing solicitor) is combined into the degree and consequently it cuts down on...
