:p My class is cool. Our teacher is extremely high-strung though, I fear for her blood-pressure sometimes - actually, all the time, I don't think she ever gives herself a break! I guess she's very passionate about her legal studies. :p We've got a pretty vocal class, 15 intelligent and opinionated people plus a crazy teacher makes for some vocally violent debates most days!

We had a very close class... only 4 students... so we could easily laugh, debate, and discuss :)

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with Legal. For one thing, I think the HSC course is much more interesting than the preliminary - which I didn't like too much, but persisted in hope that it'ld get better (and it did!).

I always get the feeling that my teacher overcomplicates things just to make it more challenging for us - or maybe it's just me. :)

i miss my legal class so much.
my teacher knew his stuff pretty well, but he was so lazy lol he let us bludge SO MUCH, i'm not joking.

in yr11 we used to have triples on wednesday mornings (ie, school started at 8:10), even if we turned up at 8:45 he wouldn't care :D

he'd teach for a while, and then we'd discuss, and then we'd do our "own work" (gossip) lol. when harry potter #5 came out, a few of us were reading it during class and he just commented on how he couldn't get into dymocks on saturday :p

man i loved our class :D even though we didn't do much work during class, we had great disussions (arguments :p) and heaps of fun. we all did pretty well too....... aaaaargh i miss school!!

That sounds EXACTLY like my class! Not much work went on in class (although we did discuss a lot), we only had morning classes so ppl rocked up at different times.....our teacher used to sing the 'fail' song when we didn't do anything (quite a funny lil song actually). BUT we were very close, had an awesome teacher who really knew her stuff and to everyone's suprise the class did amazingly well--the best results as a class in the school!

My class is off-topic and filled with opinionated idiots (well a distinct and vocal few) who talk out of their arses. I wish my mates were still in the class, too bad they dropped it at the end of year 11.

We sat at the back and laughed all lesson long, acted like total dickheads, and bagged out the dumbarses who sat up front and continually took the lesson off track and off-syllabus. Still went quite well and beat the people up front hahaha...

These days I just turn up late. The class is a joke because of the front row. Everyone else is fine but most people are shy and don't talk/answer questions/engage in discussion (though what's the point when someone will undoubtedly take it to something stupid that sounds like it's straight from the Daily Telegraph?)

My teacher is great though. She knows what she's doing and usually provides good feedback.

i loved our class discussing about capital punishment, abortion, euthanasia etc, we'd all get so worked up about it (our teacher: "that's the spirit, girls!") :D

lol yeah some of the girls would completely contradict themselves and we'd all have a laugh (including the girl herself) :D it was really interesting hearing people's views though, and their reasons behind them... like why a few girls supported capital punishment, etc.

My class was really interesting. In year 11, no one really bothered turning up, except me and some others. THe others did quite bad that year, but I was happy top get 100% here and there in my assessments.

Year 12, a new teacher who was amazed at how the class got by the year before, was open to discussion, we had some really good times in that class. It was fun learning about the law, and being from Ashfield, everyone had something to share about their time with the law - whether it was confrontation with police and arrest or just discussing political issues.
