Commercial Law/Personal Property (1 Viewer)

Hi,

I am doing this subject nest semester. I have a few questions if someone could answer them, it would be much appreciated

1. Is the subject difficult?
2. Did you enjoy it?
3. What assessment is involved?

Thanks

I'm doing it this semester at the moment with Francis Johns.

1. Not really. There's only 1 lecture per week, so content wise - it seems a lot less. The concepts are pretty easy to understand, but they're disjointed at the beginning. Once you get to Sale of Goods and Trade Practices Act, it gets more interesting.

2. Frankly, no. The concepts are easy and consumer protections is interesting (applicable to real life). But the few contact hours - 3 per week, are pretty good.

3. There's a case note (20%), a seminar exercise (eg. 1 week take home assignment) (20%) and final open book exam (60%).

1. No its not really
but now it apparently is worse than b4
I did it last semester to escape the 'harder version' of it
i got it for only 4CP where nothing was compulsory. it was great

2. Yes i enjoyed it. it was alrite. 4cp. was quite ok

3. But i didnt do the optional casenote. which was the assessemnt
so my exam was weighted 100%

bad things about commercial law now:
assessment is compulsory- a casenote
also a compulsory seminar paper
and a compulsory exam

all my friends hate commercial law now!

people who did it last sem r cheering!

Lol, the only good thing now is that the last third of the lectures is done by Geoff Moore, who is very good.
