Depends, again. If you decide to do the Professional Program (Option B - which allows you to practice as soon as you graduate), you're in for 50 units a semester and 180 hours per year of clinical placement. If you decide against the Professional Program (Option A - which requires you to...
Completely depends on what you combine Law with. I combined with Science, and I was looking at ~23 hours per week in first year. If you do Business/Law, you're looking at ~18 contact hours per week in the first semester. Judging by this year's timetable, you'd get no days off (that's pretty...

WAM so far - 74.29.. getting close to that D average.
Don't know anything about Psychology, but the B Science (Forensic)/B Laws course is no longer offered because it didn't have enough students each year (there are 16 in our current year). The Science/Law combination is a fair bit of work (a lot of people, myself included, find the Science...
