Where to study law

[appianway]

Not quite actually Although I'm not the best person to talk about the nightclubs...

Canberra... nightclubs.

nightclubs = a bunch of guys standing around listening to an ipod on shuffle, right?

I haven't clubbed in Melbourne before, but Melburnians here haven't been complaining about the clubs as far as I know.

Part time work is easy to come by here, and it pays quite well - you could make in excess of 100 bucks per week if you studied law.

I don't know if you mean good for a law student or good because you're a law student but I make more than that and my degree isn't that prestigious.

[appianway]

Oh, it's not because you're a law student per se - it's just that law has very few contact hours, so it'd be very easy to pick up work during the week (so finding a job shouldn't be a hassle at all). On the other hand, science students here (and probably at most universities) have hectic schedules, so it's hard to find a job on weekdays, which limits employment prospects.

Are you going to do a postgraduate after your Law degree?

[ben92]

Appianway doesn't do Law.

I do, and I'd say most don't do postgraduate. Law in a combined degree (almost everyone does it combined) takes five years. Anything on top of that could mean you're at uni for almost a decade. I might do honours for French because I *think* (having done 0 research at all) it only takes a year extra.
