Law Applicants 2012

I'm getting wound up because this is hugely frustrating. A person who has read books about law, even one who has done work experience, is not a well rounded person. That doesn't mean grades alone are enough, or that an applicant with a PS which doesn't discuss law outside of A level would stand a chance. I'm playing semantics, basically.

And no, it doesn't; but it does mean I have managed, in the past, to write a PS which is good enough for entry to the course, which would suggest I have some idea what I'm talking about. That's the only reason I mention it.

I never for one second denied that you did not know what you were talking about.
But even writing a PS eloquently demonstrates good communicative skills one out of many desirable traits, just because it isn't mentioned in admissions policy does not make it a non requirement. It's kinda like begging the question of how far would a PS for LSE go with 50 grammatical errors.

By mentioning the strengths they demonstrate a myriad of traits. The way you are simply writing now indicates to me that you are intelligible etc.

I really do not know why you are getting hostile when I am only giving the advice you are advocating. I really did bother to read your stuff.

Lastly that pic is hilarious who ever posted it. lool.

Syntactical and grammatical errors aside, I am intrigued. What could possibly make you think that?

I was disappointed with my GCSEs when I got them, A*AAAAAABBC, but I thought they were solid enough to get me into a good university for law? I assumed that predicted grades would be more important and aside from oxbridge GCSEs didn't much matter. But then I'd like to go to Durham and it's going to be hard I think. got AABB at AS but close to As with the Bs and I hope I can improve! I really can't get my head around which courses to apply for.... ahh

LoL, unless you are marking a submission of mine than I do not care what you think.

Well here's a parting tip I'll give you for free: it's 'then' not 'than'.

You may want to work on your homophones too. You know, to avoid bad legal writing .

Enjoy you're 2:1. You know that I am right and it is hurting you right now :P

POST THE 'YOU MAD SIG' FOR DRAMATIC EFFECT PLEASE artist !

You are evidently a troll.

Quite a handsome one might i add

You are evidently a troll.

I am embarrassed for you.

Returning to the original debate, one should not answer a question with another question. It's elementary stuff.

I am afraid that I cannot read any more of your idiocy and therefore do not expect a reply.

Bye, I am not posting because of you I'm afraid. Take care

Oh and its clear that you do not understand that style of writting.

Allow me to educate.

Problem

Elaborate

Find another problem, pose it into a question, try to explain, define or comment.

The law has many vague and ambiguous definitions. That level of exploration is needed.

Tsk tsk tsk.

Out of the ones you chose you should stick with University of Birmingham, Warwick, and UCL. Ditch the others, if you want to get into a good firm then going to the elite law unis would maximize your chances.

As mentioned before, they do not have a benchmark score however a high score is good. If you do badly on the multiple choice section in the LNAT then you still have a chance to do good in the second part of the test (Essay). So do not panic, the test is not easy but the essay part will allow you to make up for any short comings in part 1. This years average for the LNAT was 17 out of 42.

Once again as mentioned earlier, go to the top 5 or Red bricks if you really aspire in going to the top places, even then its not a guarantee but a good start.

I just re read what he posted.

He mentioned *Should* be three A's.

In this case its a gamble, If he applies to the top and does not get three A's then you can kiss those choices good bye well before you receive a formal rejection.

If you want a secure method then do what the others are proposing.

Depends on what you want. The risky path or the secure one.

I was literally few marks away from an A and so should (hopefully) get an A after i have retaken the exam, on that note my predicted grades nonethless should be A* A* A so i don't fully understand why i won't be able to acces the elite unis such as UCL.
