What about fighting for the basic human rights of an oppressed minority?

Or the maintenance of international law to prevent armed conflict and therefore countless civilian deaths?

Or putting a paedophilic rapist in jail?

What about the protection of a worker's right to compensation due to negligence on the part of the employer to provide a safe working environment?

What about those lawyers working in community legal centers for free, helping out those who can't afford to seek legal help?

Contrary to popular perception, lawyers "aid those in need" as much as those in the medical industry do.

yeah you guys are totally right. i guess my perception is rather narrow. i dunno. i hear "lawyer" and automatically think tireless work for unappreciative clients. to me, it doesnt seem like a profession whose ultimite goal is to help. but then again that contradicts your family rights and protecting abused parties. being a lawyer is rewarding. hmph. i suck! i need to go die in a fire.

Out of those courses I would do one of the RMIT ones. I'm sorry to say that a law degree from VU isn't looked upon very highly while the Media/PC/Journalism are the best of their type in Victoria. Journalism is very tough at the moment for job prospects, my sister, who graduated in the top 3 of her year at RMIT, had to take a cadetship at a country newspaper as The Age didn't take any one and the Herald Sun took one, who had 3 years industry experience. Of course if Journalism is your passion then I would still take this course.

But I guess the main reason why I want the Law course is because after a year, I can transfer into any other Law course I want (provided I get good results :P). And I don't think it is entirely difficult to get good scores at Vic uni, given that you study for the necessary hours. I think my career path is chosen. :)

what law course are you planning to do at vic uni? just straight law?
i might have to go down a similar path if i don't get 95 for ANU.

It's just a straight law degree, but I want to major in either corporate or copyright law. :D

Hehe Ninwa, good points on law, I'm planning actually, to do 1 or 2 years of my time at Legal Aid, and help underprivileged people with their cases (may even go pro-bono publico, not too sure yet), just to feel better about my career and not jib people out of money (although my ultimate aim is to be a well respected lawyer with whom anyone can feel free to come to to solve disputes :)).

@ Shona: If you lit that fire, I would put it out! You are SO much better than that. :)

hmm well, if you want to do law at monash, wouldn't it be better to do some course over there and then transfer? i thought internal transfers were easier compared to transferring from another uni.

Hmm, i'd imagine it wouldn't be that easy to transfer from VU, unless you got super awesome results lol

And also, just in case people don't think this could be possible (or think I'm lying ::)), I've attached my Vic Uni offer in this post (address and student number edited out. Also, don't really care about my RMIT offers, so yeah, just my Vic Uni offer! :D)

Enjoy. :)
