    The coursework is evenly spread in the First Year Model and youre getting your teeth into it straight away by the second week youre 50% through! A few years ago, I started a degree at another uni, and doing all the units at once become overwhelming. In our third class for the year, we witnessed law making in action in a visit to Parliament House. It was so interesting and insightful, and something youre not normally exposed to.
