uni of liverpool is usually undersubscribed for LLB every year. you'll always see the uni and the LLB course in the clearing list which is published by the Telegraph or the Independent or both, every year.

the issue is whether you're an international student or not. i can't help but feel that during the 'clearing' phase, international students tend to get offers over local students? i know for a fact that last year there were 15 or more students from a particular foreign country doing the LLB at liverpool uni.

undersubscribed means that the number of students applying to the university overall or for certain courses, are low. so because of that, they'll have many places during the 'Clearing' phase. thats when students who've been rejected by all their unis will scramble to call the unis on the 'Clearing' list and then beg for a uni place.

based on the unis that you listed to go to I would say work hard to get into Uni of Liverpool. its the best uni on your list. so make sure that your UCAS application is done properly, your Personal Statement is free from grammatical errors and is strong in terms of substance and that your reference by your teacher is done as well as possible.

I know I really wanna get in انشالله
I got an offer from LJMU so I'm DEFO going to uni but I do wanna go to Liverpool university it is a Russell group

Your comment about undersubscribed hopefully means I'll be more likely to get in place due to no one applying for it?

yes. but that was the case for previous years. you had better study now. you must be a fool to want to go to LJMU instead of Uni of Liverpool. Uni of Liverpool is so much better and its way easier to get high marks. so you better start studying now. ok?

Well done! :smile:

You could start to revise by rewriting any notes you make in class so they'll be easier to revise from, and the generally reviewing them each week/month so it stays fresh in your mind. When it gets closer to exams just revise like you usually would for an exam :smile:

& I guess it's better for job prospects than ljm or Birmingham, and if you want to be a solicitor Manchester has a lot of law fairs :smile: I'm no expert though so don't take my word for it lol
