Why does that look so familiar? :p

I am a "newbie" what does that mean?
That is your member title, as your post count increases your member title will change. The system is as follows:
Newbie 0 - 20 posts
Rookie 20 - 50 posts
Law Student 50 - 150 posts
Paralegal 150 - 300 posts
Solicitor 300 - 500 posts
Barrister 500 - 750 posts
Senior Council 750 + posts
At 150 posts you will also be granted "custom status" which means you can change your member title to whatever you like

EDIT: What happens if I reach like 6000 posts? :D

Hey, i dont do legal but I am hoping to do combined Law at Uni, I didnt know that macquarie's entry UAI was not that high compared to UNSW and USyd, and i had no idea that there was a course like B Actuarial Studies/Law. Wow i might do that instead of boring old arts/law.
I have heard from various ppl that legal studies does not really boost your knowledge of law or if it does u will be taught the same stuff in university. Is this true (the former)?
Anyway I would have loved to do legal but my school does not offer it :(
Im guessing that u would have an advantage over those who do law at university because u have already done the basics (or even more than the basics).

Don't worry from what I have heard, Legal doesn't give u a huge advantage :)
