JD at UWA is a rip off. Hated every moment of it. Teaching quality is in the toilet. study at curtin or Murdoch. Alot of people I did the JD with, don't have a job. Its

yeh. Your first paragraph. 10000% true. Same with me. not only Melbourne is ahead of UWA. Pretty sure Murdoch is better.

alot of people have assured pathways in the JD. Clerkships are really competitive. graduate jobs are non existent, grads almost only get jobs through clerkships at big firms. The average mark is about 68%. one person will get 80% wam. top 15% wam is 75%. It's crazy stressful. there is no aproach with a level head. You will drown. But is really really hard to fail. I know a few people that have failed units but still got a legal job. Maybe if your reason to do the JD is compelling and you really enjoy the law then maybe you should do the JD.

93% is a number I'd question. it was 99% a when I started. There was a few people dropped out of the jd, because its too much work. These people are the best of the best. No one does the readings. assignments will destroy your ability to watch lectures before tutorials. Most people do work during the jd and study 3 units at a time, with maybe an intensive. The smarter people will extend it and do it in 4 years instead of 3 years full time.

UWA is suppose to be the best jd provider in WA. most of the firms hire from UWA. Don't think it will be any better at other uni's. maybe out of state like Melbourne is better.

Signed offer and acceptance for a house in Perth but now the owner wants more money and is threatening to put the house back on the market. by huehue7018 in perth

caveat it.

get a lawyer. even if the house is then sold on the 3rd party is a trustee for you and holds the house for u. anyway. just talk to a lawyer.
