Default Law at Oxford
 
On a scale of 1 to 10 how competitive are the admissions for studying Law at Oxford?
I'm taking the LNAT in 3 days and I've never been so stressed!

Wow! That's so cool that you can apply for both Oxford and Cambridge if you have completed a first degree! Good luck with you applications!

If you get into both Oxford and Cambridge which one will you choose?

OP there's no scale which Oxbridge can fit in. Right now you have to concentrate in your exam without silly thoughts about how competitive is a very competitive subject at a rather competitive university.
Right

So best of luck

Thanks, SacredNomad. I haven't been to Southampton yet, going to visit it sometime in November to see what it's like.

Default Oxford Law interviews - reading materials?
 
Hey everyone, I've applied to oxford to do law and did some research on my college - apparently you definitel get reading materials in your law interviews. Assuming I get one, does anyone know what they mean by reading materials?
I thought statutes, legal judgements, but anything else? You don't need any prior knowledge of the law, so...

appreciate any help
