How did/do you study for Legal?

[eeps]

I saw flash cards (I think they're called system cards) at Officeworks and they were an absolute rip off.... anyone know where to get flash/cue cards from?

I don't know. I have palm cards at home already, I'll just use those - write bits of information on them and get my brother to test me on them or something. Use anything around the house - bits of scrap paper etc. I'm Asian. I don't feel the need to fork out money for flash-cards. LOL. =D

Haha Random question, but you can't see my moderator status on this thread can you? :S

In an attempt to bring the topic back to Legal Studies, do people know when their first Legal SAC is?.. mine's on the 28th of Feb (25% of Unit 3 SACs).

My teacher this year (who also takes Legal Studies 3/4) said that, our school's SACs are apparently quite hard and really long. There about 13~14 questions (like the exam) for each SAC and it must be done in around 60~80 minutes. He said it was so that come to the exam you'll have plenty of time, since the exam is 2 hours.

Yes, as a mod, werdna, you shouldn't be going off topic so much.

EPL: My first SAC is around week 6 I believe.

Week 7 or 8 - Parly and citizen Topic Test work 25 marks, seems like a fair while

Going off my school's course outline, my first SAC is on;

- Federation/Parliament
- Effectiveness of parliament
- Initiation of legislation
- Need for changing laws
- Law reform bodies
- Changing the law

That's basically 3 chapters worth. I presume most of it won't be too difficult as it was covered in Units 1/2.

February is pretty early EPL - I think I've got my first SAC around mid-March.

We should start the Legal score tally next time too, similar to what they did this year.

I just realised that, everyone else's first SAC is ages away from mine. =\

We should do it sometime in the future. Can you?.. or me or someone else?.. it's a good idea, though I don't want other people (myself included) to feel embarrassed/disheartened if they don't do well on a SAC or something. I could blow my chances of getting 50 if I screw up my first SAC (which *hopefully* I won't).

I mean, it also depends on the school - some schools give out easier SACs, while other schools give harder ones - it wouldn't be a true indication of how everyone's going in comparison to one another, due to the level of difficulty of SACs. I just thought I'd mention that, though I don't have any objections to it.

There is also this thread which I made a while ago, which answers the question of this thread - "How did/do you study for Legal?"

[Liuy]

Breaking up Study Design into individual AOS and taking notes for each dot point atm.
Will do questions from the textbook and Legal Notes to be sure that I am applying my knowledge correctly.

Handwriting (never been one for typing) summary/revision notes before SACS and might try the flashcard method.
