How competitive is trinity college Cambridge for law?

Original post by jlpd

Due to the pool system, if you are a good candidate you will get a place at Cambridge anyway. Apply to the college you liked the most. If you get into one, you would have been able to get into any.

i am a bit concerned that trinity might reject me pre-interview if there are too many strong candidates?

It only has 5 or 6 places a year. That's why, it attracts less applicants. Most other colleges have 8 to 12 places a year.

thanks again! sorry to bother, but i am a bit surprised that magdalene college has such high application acceptance rates (i calculated according to the past years, its around 17.3%), i am surprised because it's known to be a very strong law college and many singaporeans/hong kong students apply there as its a jardine college (and those applying for the jardine scholarship are presumably very very strong students, esp given the caliber of education they receive in hk/singapore). anything i am missing? or is it a wise college to apply for that has a strong law faculty but not overly competitive?

Peterhouse has a high success rate too. So you should choose either Magdalene or Peterhouse!!! 😀

This year as a college, we have decided to interview all students who we believe are capable. However, after careful consideration our admissions team has decided to only give offers to students who have achieved higher than 30 in their LNAT, due to the competition.

Is LNAT 30 and above for Trinity College, Cambridge University or Trinity College, Oxford University? 😧
