Struggling to decide between Uni of Nottingham and Durham
I have two conditional offers one from Durham for finance (AAB) and one from Nottingham for law (AAA). Which would be better for pursuing a career in corporate law, preferably at a magic circle firm?
Well if you’re going to do finance at Durham, then you’d likely have to do the GDL in order to pursue a career in law, so bare in mind that this will incur even more debt. I myself really struggled when trying to pick a uni for law, and the advice I would give is don’t become bogged down by the idea of prestige in terms of universities. They are both good institutions to study at so you will get a lot out of your degree wherever you go. Look at what each uni can provide for you, and which one you would actually better see yourself studying at.

That depends entirely on YOU - not the brand name of the Uni you go to.
Go either they are both good unis.
Big difference in the cities though - that is how I would decide between the two.
