Aimed too high? I dont think so... i mean, LSE is terrible to get into this year, but SOAS and dundee... and maybe edinburugh... should be ok as long as you get a decent pass in your foundation year surely.

Just out of interest, why did you go for a mixture of english and scottish unis? You know that law at a scottish uni will be scottish law...?

yea, but i hear scotland is more keen on getting international students. and i plan to go back to turkey after my degree, so it shouldnt matter which i do.

I have a US HS diploma as well, drmoney. From the LSE and Warwick's responses, I don't think they regard this qualification very much. Warwick only asked me to send in my college qualifications here, and they didn't even care/mentioned my HS diploma. It's best that you do exceptionally well on your foundation degree... don't count on the HS diploma too much. Good luck!

Oh yeah... did you ever take the AP exam here in US? They take that into consideration over the HS diploma as well.

I'm applying for Law LLB at LSE, Warwick, SOAS, Notts, Queen M, Bristol. No, I personally don't think you're aiming too high...long as you've got a strong personal statement and good results from your foundation degree.
