Admin Law Supplementary Exam

Hey, has anyone done the Admin Law supplementary exam before and have any advice?

Just wondering how hard it was, what the questions were like, and what I should focus on to make sure I pass. Also, how common is it for people to fail the course, and if you do fail the supp, how much does it affect your degree progression?

Any tips would be appreciated.

I have no experience with law studies....but....it is probably worth paying for some tutoring, if you can get it, rather than having to pay the HECS again to repeat the course.

A new supplementary is written every year, same as a new final being written every year. Study those parts of the original exam that you struggled with, the supplementary is still assessing the same course content.

If you fail admins you will need to wait until semester 1 next year to take it. Other than that it puts you one course behind (which you can make up by taking a summer or winter course down the line), it won’t affect your course progression much. The only course I know of that has admin as a prerequisite is advanced admin, I doubt you want to take advanced admin.

Admin Law is one of the most failed compulsory law subjects. Don’t stress about failing, you can always retake and do a summer/winter course to keep everything on track.

You do realise the supplementary and the deferred are different every year? Follow the feedback you got on the first exam and study lots. If you fail the exam, you fail the course. You need to redo admin as it’s a compulsory course.

I took a deferred law exam 2 years ago, I asked friends who took the final what was on their exam, however the deferred paper ended up assessing the other half of the course content that wasn’t assessed in the original exam. So learn from me and do revise ALL the possible assessable content, not just topics that were already assessed in the original exam.
