BA (Hons) - Law (Jurisprudence) at Oxford only allows choice of 2 optional papers?

This is so funny. Why don’t you just apply to Cambridge then since they have more optional modules or whatever? Sorry to burst your bubble but Oxford isn’t going to listen to you

Everybody at Oxford would love to have 6 optional papers like Cambridge. So it won't happen, unless somebody tries to convince and persuade the Law department at Oxford University!!!

Really? How do you know? Have you asked everybody at Oxford? Done a poll or soemtbing? Don’t think so

My UCAS Personal Statement will be outstanding but you will understand more about my court case (it was ABH/Theft of a mobile phone, against me), I was left highly traumatised. But when I meet you in one of Oxford, Cambridge, LSE, UCL, KCL or SOAS you will understand. I have also seen a 'vivid' dream, like a video being played in my dream with my old Headmaster say: "Many Congratulations in getting into Oxbridge." But I don't know whether it was Oxford or Cambridge.

You will never meet me.

Just reading the set books will not get you a place at Oxford. You need to do your own research into an area of law that interests you, and ace the lnat.

An Oxford law undergraduate once told me that to get into Oxford law you have to be good at logic. You can have this gift even if you have aaa, which is why they are open to people who do not have and a*.

Just have a look at the other posters’ comments. Your comments are not popular, so logic would tell you you are not on the right track.

Reading law textbooks is useful for the interviews, since the Tutorials at Oxford and Supervisions at Cambridge are based on Year 1 Papers content, and it is tested indirectly in the interviews in December every year. But it is clear, you need to have a high LNAT score to have a realistic chance of being called for interview at either.

My comments have no malice, all I want to do is to see Oxford offer 6 optional papers, which they can easily do so. In fact, Oxford offer better optional papers than Cambridge!!! lol But they only currently allow 2 optional paper choices, when they clearly could offer 6 optional papers.

I do Maths and Further Maths and that teaches logic in problem solving too. lol

Why have entry requirements as low as AAA? When less than 5% of the intake are offered AAA?! Where as the majority achieve A*A*A or A*A*A But I do think they should introduce CONTEXTUAL OFFERS: BBB like UCL and they also have Foundation Year to Law.

?

no i dont...lmfao

All the other universities offer around 5 optional papers and only Cambridge offers 6 optional papers, yet Oxford only offers 2 optional papers?!

I still don't get why 1. you are so desperate for 6 optional papers and 2. you are so desperate for them to up the entry requirements when it doesn't affect you. oxford and cambridge simply have different ways of shortlisting, why do you want them to interview more people? why do you even think that if they increase the requirements to a*aa they will interview more people in the first place? is it because if you don't get an interview with your 4a* predicted grades you can blame it on the fact that oxford shortlists less people for interview due to their low entry requirements? you're making 0 sense...

you still haven't explained why oxford should change to cambridge's system other than "i want it to" and "it's a prestigious uni" neither of which are concrete reasons which explain why it would be an improvement. what makes having 6 options better? u should probably think about that first...

bro ur just repeating urself. what's better about having more options?

Greater satisfaction for a student.

how is it more satisfying for students?

I will apply with certificates of A-Levels and the CFAB at least of the ICAEW Accountants exams, so there will be no predicted grades issue. I wish to become a Tax Barrister.

Oxford are missing out on talented candidates by shortlisting just some candidates. Cambridge University interviews 80% - 90% of its applicants, especially those who have a chance to shine at interview stage, where as Oxford use a shortlisting system which only selects the highest scores.

There are currently just 2 optional papers, and most other universities offer 2 optional papers in Year 2 and 3 in Year 3 and Cambridge offers 3 optional papers in Year 2 and 3 optional papers in Year 3 as well. lol So why can't Oxford offer the same as Cambridge?

you know they can reject you even if you have 4a* and the CFAB right? you can do abysmally on the lnat and that's that

you're acting as if cambridge isn't also "missing out on talented candidates" by not selecting people with aaa lol... and when you say the highest scores that has nothing to do with the a-levels but rather the lnat which makes sense when considering that it's a test for someone's aptitude for the subject. it's just a different method of shortlisting and the final amount of students they select is largely the same. are you counting on the interview that much because you don't have the confidence you can match the other shortlisted candidates in other aspects of the application? who's to say that cambridge won't reject you pre-interview? i know people who ended up like that...

lol so why must Oxford offer the same as Cambridge?

As soon as I read ‘but I’m confident if I mention my court case, I’ll be given an offer’ I knew this guy was trolling lol. What makes you think just because you have a court case your going to get an offer? That’s like saying everything prospective med student who has spent time in hospital with an illness and mentions it in interview will be given an offer.
