IS LAW THE RIGHT COURSE???
ninwa:
correct me if I'm wrong, but JD = LLB
they only differ in that JD is a graduate degree whereas LLB is undergraduate
but what you learn is the same (there's only one legal system you can study after all!)
Collin Li:
It is slightly more flexible to do the Commerce degree first. You can convince firms, while in your 2nd year, that you will work with them after your Commerce degree, whereas in a double-degree, you can't do this until 4th year (firms like to hire people in their penultimate year). You can stop after your Bachelors if you want.
If not, having the Masters looks better than the Bachelors.
This would be the choice that I would take if I also knew I had an interest in Commerce (and not just purely Law).
lacoste:
whilst i was going to post, you guys had beat me to it. lol
nina you are right, i was going to post that it would be risky going to UoM doing commerce and then trying out the LMAT?/? for JD.
does anyone know how competitive it is to get into JD?
how many commerce students are there? 2000??(guessing)

lacoste:
there is also a JD for Monash.
i think JD is the degree for students with no background of law? is this right?
and is monash uni globally known, ie, for their law degree/commerce.
