preparations

anyone got any good suggestions on websites and books i can read to prepare for law in university?

Glanville Williams learning the law is ok, or learning exam skills by McVea and Cumper is quite good, especially if you haven't done law before so need to get a grasp of the skills required in problem questions etc! but other than that, i wouldn't bother really...you'll spend all your time reading when u do law at uni anyway lol

I personally found Glanville Williams so boring it almost put me off doing law. Try reading the Times Law Supplement or the legal sections of good broadsheets, far more interesting and useful when you come round to applications/interviews etc.

I liked Granville Williams :smile:

Yes the Times and the Guardian, get into the habit of reading the law supplements of them now and it will pay off later.

Some John Grisham or Jodi Picoult I find always gets me in the mood for a bit of work, reminds me where I am going / what I want to do / why Im writing essays at 4am!!! :wink:
