i'm doing well, but so are most people as our unit 3 sacs were open book lol
so i didn't need to study/memorise anything
i'd say i'm around 2nd or 3rd rank
-
open book :p how does that work for legal?
can't you ace legal if it's open book?

yeah pretty much!
our sacs aren't tests, they're mainly essay questions, but we're given the topic before hand and are allowed to bring in whatever we want :)
but don't worry, our sac marks are gonna be hacked down by the moderation process :P
-
ye, my teacher on the other hand marks really hard..so our marks will be majory pushed up!!
plus bc we had to study hard we know half the course back to front already..cuts study time
-

-

yeah we're probably the only school that does open book legal sacs :P
i think unit 4 will be closed book though, my teacher said she just wanted everyone to have a chance to pass at least one unit
i'm using justice and outcomes too. did you find the chapter on court jursidictions (chap 6) too detailed? i ignored quite a bit of that chapter coz it was just info overload lol.

omg that's such a relief, i'm glad someone else thinks the textbook goes a little overboard with the details.

lol i have no idea whether VCAA know our SACs are open book- i'll just hope we don't get audited :P

if everyone is gettin good marks... u know they'll probably look into it??? :P hahah. not to scare u or nething ^^
but yeah we have a sac on it first week back to :P and then we are already started on tribunals.... point?? i dunno. so we have 2 sacs in a row coming up.
we went to barwon prison first week of hols. i went there again for the second time (coz i went last year with a diff school) THE PRISONERS REMEMBERED ME!!! i was like o.O
-
LOL! That would be a bit scary. I went to Barwon prison for Legal last year. Was a great experience. It seems so corrupt. The prisoners told us "if you want something you'll get it" and that those drug detecting machines are a piece of crap

well i guess SACs don't really matter that much anyway, it's all on the exam, so we're screwed haha
wow the prisoner's remembered you? what kind of prisoners were they- burgulars or assaultists (i don't think that's a word lol) or what. did they seem nice?
we were supposed to go to prison last year (lol), but our trip got cancellled. but we did get to see some pretty cool court cases, which was fun.
-
i never went to the prison :( we went on some shitty courts excursion...all the cases were a snooze fest

haha yeah we were just lucky to get some good cases, the other year level before us got some lame tax fraud case.
-
we went to the courts aswell this year :)
saw a murder case ^^
-
I don't have good memories of the courts. I got told off by my teacher for chewing gum in court lol and got an after school detention. bitch
-
da wah!!!!
thats gay....
see my murder case was just aking questions about were u there. who did u see.. did u see anything. and its like the guy on the stand was LYING!!! haha!!
but it was like watching grass grow. but the barwon prison was good as!! had to go to school at 6:30 am tho :(
-
our teacher doesn't want us to go excursions because he's scared we might get hit or bashed so he doesn't want to be held responsible. eh what a society lol

we saw a murder case too, this guy whacked this underworld guy with a shovel.
we also saw the guys who ran a riot and trashed a blockbuster store, that was interesting coz they were all trialled at the same time. one guy's lawyer even called his client an idiot lol. great defence.
-
Haha my ex was working at Maccas the morning after in Noble Park and she found all these DVDs in the carpark (Maccas is in close proximity to Blockbuster) so she picked them up and put them in her bag and then when she got inside they told her to put them back cause it was a crime scene so she went outside and scattered the DVD's back on the ground haha... something like that

LOL are you serious?
i love the fact how she scattered the dvds to try and resemble the crime scene again. sounds like something i'd try to do lol.
so do you mean the police followed her into maccas to tell her to put the DVDs back?
-
Hahha yeh it's all true. But nah I think the thing was that because the crime scene was so large the police couldn't tape off all of noble park lol so they told the management of maccas to keep an eye on the carpark and so when she got inside they (the employees/managers) told her what had happened the night before and were like "didnt you hear what happened you idiot. you cant just pick them up!!!" so she put them back
-
lol - that's my two cents
-
LOL HIT AN UNDERWORLD GUY WITH A SHOVEL..... sorry i have a funny cute emoticon for that on my msn ^^
:o:knuppel2: :idiot2: :crazy2:
as for the dvd.... THATS HILARIOUS!!....
if that happen to me...id leave a note saying... sorry i thought they were free :D my bad ^^
but scatter them to ^^ :police:
thats just funny ^^
