How did everyone go?

[Random_Guy]

Thoughts about the exam? Any predictions for A+ cutoff? Any tricky/ambiguous questions?

[Zafaraaaa]

It wasn't as bad as most of us expected, I reckon - but sneaky VCAA with extended response combining units 3 and 4!   

[SupaMario]

I forgot to mention that the judge in the adversary system is independent and impartial -.-... Also, how many strengths and/or weaknesses did everyone mention for the last question?

[nacho]

waaaaaat
that was hard!
finished with 10 minutes left though
why is my username still 'sirhorselover'
where are my mod powers =.=
why is my respect down by 26?

btw: i put, for the recent change, 'increased minimum limit to $10,000 from $5,000 to take a civil case to magistrate'
accept?

Haha, that was the most ambiguously worded Q, I think! "effective operation of legal system" - I just talked about Koori Court division in the County Court and how it'll promote fair&unbiased hearing and increase access to Aboriginals to the legal system

Will they accept this? =/

A+ 61ish
would the establishment and increased usage of vcat be appropriate for recent changes?

[nacho]

yes to both of the above! gj guys

[zoeee]

what did everyone do for the extended response?
did we have to choose a side - either for juries or not?
i wrote about the stengths and how the weaknesses can be minimised through different reforms am i right? :S

[SupaMario]

I wrote the Koori Court aswell, but yeah, they should accept it. Atleast that's what the Connect Education notes said anyways.

What did you guys put for the 5 marker about avoiding precedent.. I said the position of the court affected if it could be avoided/ distinguishing but generally they follow it

[playsimme]

I put 4 strengths, 4 weaknesses for the jury

sorry but it said if it had similar facts
therefore no distinguish i dont think

[eeps]

Decent exam. Some questions were very open-ended, to me at least.

It was 5 marks.. so I said it they were starkly different? No idea though, hopefully they get my argument o.o

I think I put around the same, and how much did you guys write for role of VLRC! that was just kind of randomly shoved in there haha
