I think that is a great list--especially with including the tiers--do you think there is much difference between, say Bristol, LSE, UCL?

I am applying to senior status / graduate law programs in 2017 and so far I will be applying too:

Band 1:
Oxford

Band 2:
Bristol, Nottingham, Edinburgh

Band 3:
Exeter

What are your thoughts on these schools for law?

People on here will say there is, but tbh, they're all top tier universities for law. I can't imagine an LSE/UCL/KCL grad having a massive advantage.

That grouping looks good to me.

Thank you for your help--Oxford is obviously a crapshoot--but either Nottingham or Bristol I will be happy. I have high undergrad grades so look forward to see what comes my way in 2017!

Cheers
