Yep. Although I am of course under no illusions - Oxford is better. But at the end of the day, is that all that matters? I thought I would be more comfortable and happpy at Bristol (and hence, more likely to get a 1st). Besides, the girls are fine!
thank you for all your input. exploring the question further, why is it peoples' opinions that bristol should be chosen ahead of manchester when in the times league manchester is rated 5th whereas bristol is 16th?
Oh my god ^^^^ how many times do we have to say the league tables mean NOTHING!!!! It is so obvious to everyone and all law firms and chambers that Bristol is a far far better place to study Law. To be honest, it wouldnt surprise me one little bit if there were certain amounts of cash changing hands or favours being called in regarding these league tables; there has been some very dodgy placings in the last few years

Well I'd say the league tables are just gimmicks to increase their sales. However I won't really say that they meant nothing, only it is purely subjective to rank whether a uni is better than another by the summation of points.
hey. are the bristol offers mainly ABB or AAB??? just i would like to go to a 'top' uni, however realistically will not get AAA! thanks in advance for your help.
in the prospectus it states the typical offer as AAA-AAB (for law anyway). There are a few people who have received ABB - mainly internationals i think. hope this helps a bit *LOU*
