Law Applicants 2012

I did sooo bad too!! I totally panicked and i didn't have enough time to read the articles properly and then answer properly.. I really think that I'm not going to get an offer from Glasgow because I screwed up the lnat. And my essay, hahah, now I'm laughing because I just went on and on about stupid an irrelevant things. And after I realized all the 'right' and good things I should've mentioned in the essay. Well, we'll see.

AAB offer?

I imagine so.

I know same and I didn't even conclude to take one side of my "argument", it was probably one of the worst things i've ever written I think its really unfair how we have to do that stupid test it shows nothing. What other unis have you applied to, are they all Scottish ones?

He has a point.

Yep, I know.. And it's unfair to them who don't have english as their native language (like me) but i hope they will take that into consideration. And the essay topics that i had were all REALLY weird...
I applied only to scottish unis and beside glasgow i applied to strathclyde, aberdeen, dundee, edinburgh. How about you? I haven't heard anything from any of the unis and i'm really stressed

has anyone received an offer from Kings College London? I have already received an offer from Birmingham but still waiting on KCL and Bristol. Also, do your offers show up sooner via sites such as "Bristol VIP Login" than they show up on UCAS? is there a message which you can pick up from reading in between the lines in relation to waiting a long time before hearing a response from uni's?

thanks,

Hi everyone,

Most of my friends from my year at school (the boys are carrying out National Service thus the going to) are either at or going to Oxbridge, UCL or LSE. I applied for Law 2012.

My stats are:
9* GCSE
A Levels: A* Biology, A* Math, A* French, A* Economics, A Class Civ, A Modern Greek and an extra AS Physics grade A.

Cambridge Pooled/Rejected
LSE Rejected
UCL Rejected yesterday (application not as strong as others)
Notts Waiting
Kings Unconditional

I am fine with Kings to be honest as I know the rejections were partly my own fault even if they are insanely competitive, I certainly was not serious enough about my application and just decided on Law at the last minute. I was ill prepared in every way and I paid for my attitude. The problem is my parents are very very upset and of course blame me. They tell me that obviouly I am not suited to the study of Law. I have always shone with my music ability as well as acadmemicaly and they have just taken it really badly. They made sacrifices for me to go to the best English speaking school in Cyprus even splitting up our family in the process as the school was in another town 180km away. I am now an Officer doing my National Service, they even pay for my own Car and Apt as my ranking allows me to be out by 2pm each day and off at Weekends - I shone there also choosing my station as I came 3rd out of 1500 applicants. I have had a charmed life I guess. I know I have really really let them down, perhaps I was arrogant and perhaps I am not suited for Law? My Dad never gets angry but yesterday with another rejection even he was upset. I see a huge change already in the way they look at me.

I am happy to go to Kings and I will have to do Law but perhaps I am not suited to it as they say . . . .

I've applied to Nottingham Trent, nothing back yet.

Hey, I've got a few questions, which uni would you say is better in terms of reputation and employability- Southampton or Sussex?

And Which would you say is better out of Reading and Kent with priority over reputation and employability?

Basically I created this thread so Law applicants for 2012 entry can discuss various open days, AS exams and results and any general topics of discussion.
For example, so far I have been to Warwick and Queen Mary open days. Out of personal preference I really liked Warwick and could easily see myself there, but I was put off Queen Mary due to the A*AA requirements, whereas I could apply to somewhere like Warwick for AAAc or Bristol for AAA+LNAT.

Foolishly, I also forgot to add where I plan to apply:-
Bristol
Warwick
Exeter
Newcastle
Sussex

Whoa, are you serious?! I'm sorry to hear if you are; I can't believe you got rejected by those places with those grades!

Those subjects seem great for law as well. What was your personal statement like?

I am sorry to hear about your rejections. Understandably you must be feeling pretty upset now but you will soon realise that maybe it was a blessing in disguise. You can do well wherever you go. Just because competition was high at the unis you got rejected from, doesn't mean you're not suited to law. King's obviously think you are!

Plus (hopefully) I am going to be at King's, so you have nothing to worry about

Still haven't heard any thing from Bristol... sent my UCAS off 11th Oct. Surely this isn't a good sign :/
