法律学一直是留学热门专业之一，特别是想要移民的留学生，法律专业绝对是首选。不过最为以严谨为特点的专业，法律学essay很难得高分的，不说很多难以避开的专业名词与法律条款，各位导师也都练有吹毛求疵的专业技能，一点小失误就会葬送高分梦。既然法律学essay要求这么严，我们在实际写作时一定要严格遵循写作规范，养成良好的写作习惯。简单来说，要做好以下几点：
Issue:最先定的就是issue，一般在描述facts后写，也可以直接写。
开篇一定要提到最重要的issue。
*可以有多个issue/sub-issue/mini issue
例子E.g.The issue in this scenario is whether A’s serving customer performance belongs to existing contractual duty.
Rule/Relevant law:由某个case/statute引出的Principle/Definition
例子E.g.In Wigan v Edwards(1973)47 ALJR 586,the High Court stated(per Mason J at 594)the general rule as follows:
The general rule is that a promise to perform an existing duty is no consideration,at least when the promise is made by a party to a pre-existing contract,when it is made to the promisee under that contract,and it is to do no more than the promisor is bound to do under the contract.
例子E.g.It is outlined in Wigan v Edwards that a promise to perform an existing duty is no consideration.
Application具体如何运用:
需要用到更多的case来argue前面的rule，证明是否可以运用Relevant Law来判定某件事（claim against others)。
结构可以用ACAR/ACA/A，说出其中的道理，字数也要把握好：
·Argument–Main point
·Counter Argument–Challenge main point
·Rebuttal–Further support for the main point
Conclusion结尾:
联系issue，根据issue下结论，issue成立与否；结合case，以实例写/Consequence
文章结构：
·Issue+Relevant Law（建议写3-4行，字数500上下）
·Application
·Application+Conclusion
*注意，不需要每段之前加小标题！这样会影响得分。
Reference格式
1.数量≥12；Outside Research≥2
2.Case必须来源AU
3.Intext:A v B
4.Footnote:e.g.A v B[1999]FCA 100.
FullCitation
Full Stop.“.”
可用多个case，每个case用“，”隔开
一个case用一次/必须和intext符合
5.Bibliography：A-Z排序，无需Full stop，具体见AGLC GUIDE
