First of all you have to do an undergraduate course (other than law) and do REALLY well in that.

Then you must apply directly to Melbourne Uni and then they will determine if you will be accepted or not, based on your results in your undergraduate course, work experience and so on.

Once you are in the program (if your accepted) you can do it advanced, over 2 years, or just then normal course length which is 3 years.

Maybe you'll see me there (hopefully).

JD has the same course structure as undergrad I believe, minus a few electives and non law subject options.
