Generally speaking, I believe that the Lawasia moot was an amazing experience. I must say that we were very privileged in that we were given an opportunity to be a part of the workings of a competition that is held on an international arena. We were exposed to the standard that is expected of an interantional mooter and the reality of advocacy as the judges of the competition which were, for the most part, actual judges from different countries. On a personal level, this competition was a great chance for us, first year law students, to bond and spend time with one another. Even so, to be able to acquaint and work with the second year law students. Undeniably the three days involved alot of work and everybody was exhausted. However, I would say it was worth it as it was an experience and an opportunity that is invaluable.

Lawasia was a great eye-opener for me, especially being a first year student in the law programme. It was a great opportunity to interact with many leading professionals in the field and to witness first-hand the many areas of law that is available. Alternatively it was a great experience to observe the mooting competition that was held and to be apart of the preparation behind it.

LawAsia was fun. Especially with the conference, u get to hear influential ppl talk about important issues and stuff. The moots were awesome in the sense that we could experience first-hand the nastiness of the judges and made us realise just how tenacious u must be to make it.

The role of timekeeper in your average moot might seem, at a glance, to be a small, boring one; but i can safely say that my experience as a timekeeper in the LAWASIA international moots was an eye-opening experience. For one, I had to stay wide awake for the entire duration of 2 hours- give or take; and two, I had to keep the time to its precise minutes and seconds. Arduous, you may think, but what I witnessed from behind the desk across from the participants' was nothing short of extraordinary.

I remember the day when I was still struggling while thinking of which University to apply to for my Law studies. Looking back, I am glad that I made the right decision to join Taylor's Law School. The experiences which I have gained here is something which no other law school can offer. Many thanks to the Bar Council as well for making the right decision when choosing our prestigous institution as a partner in the LAWASIA International Mooting Competition. My pathway to becoming a lawyer has been a truely enlightening one.
