Monash JD

Hi guys,

Was just wondering if anyone else is waiting for the result of their Monash JD application (city campus)?

Mike Ross sat my LSAT for me.

I got my offer literally two weeks before the start of the semester

Well into November/December before you'll hear anything. Only about 100 or so students.

Unfortunately I have been forced to defer my JD studies from the January intake until the one in May. For that reason I have not been given access to the book list even though I planned on studying ahead. Can anyone help me out and post the list or email it to me?

The intro law unit is changing in 2015 so I don't have a book list for it, sorry. With crim law there were a few crimes act changes this year so my book list is probably outdated: but there might be newer editions of these.

Butterworths, Sydney, 2013 (hereafter ‘WW’) (Please note: students are required to obtain copies of
this book, which should be brought to class.  Additional cases will also be allocated for reading).
