Help! Does anyone know what kind of questions they ask in the specific subject tests (particularly for law). I'm being tested in Canada...
Thx.


Hey Ive just rang the admissions office and they said that it will be in essay form.. mostly logic and reasoning. You don't really need to have any knowledge about law and they said you can't prepare!

Im not reluctant, I would have just prefered it to be more like a skills assessment test.

Essays give you more opportunities to go wrong lol

And why the long face blamps ...
