what books do i need to read for law? to put on personal statement?

None. I didn't and I got into 3 unis for Law I think work experience is 10times more important. Anyone can read a book, but it shows initiative to go and get work experience.

what universities did you apply to?
what grades did you get for AS? :]

Strathclyde, Dundee, Aberdeen which I got conditionals to and I applied to Edinburgh but I didn't get in.

I only got ABBBC for my fifth year highers-not that great, My conditionals were Strathclyde-ABB Dundee-B and Aberdeen-A/BB/B at AH.

Can't help you with AS sorry

Hi, I think I will be applying for Law at Scottish unis this time round Which uni are you going to in the end ? Out of interest how much work exp did you have (I'm assuming it was at a lawyer's office or something ?)
Thanks

You do realise that you'll probably be studying scots law then?

Haiya! And strathclyde, I was amazed I got in considering its a AAAAB course and in 5th year I had a grand total of one A. Fair enough I got a pretty hefty condition but it was very fair I thought.

But yea anyway I had went to the courts in Edinburgh with a judge and then again with an advocate. Then I went to the Glasgow courts with said advocate and my local lawyers office but I went to both their offices one where I live and one about 20mins away
