Be seeing you at Warwick then? :wink: Chin up, you have some nice offers under your belt regardless :smile:


Thanks... I feel sad, I've visited twice because I love it so much.. I didn't even feel sad when Cambridge rejected me! :P
Ahh well I need another visit to Warwick! Are you firming Warwick?

Do you mind me asking your LNAT score?


I got 19. I'm guessing it must have been the essay/ PS that did it haha!

I'm so overwhelmed, but extremely happy :smile:

it's the worst isn't it really? :/ when did you submit your application? sent mine in October. very doubtful, in truth :frown:


Sent mine on the 28th I think, just this minute had an offer AAB which I'm pretty surprised about due to my LNAT.
Good luck, and if all goes well maybe I'll see you in October !
:biggrin:

maybe it was ps?.... go to the open days n see which u like best. the offer could be based on ur english qulalification... they need an A in english i think, law doenst require u to have an A lavel in english.... hope this makes sense!:smile:



Yes UEA want me to get an A in English Lit which I'm aiming for anyway. It's a good point that Notts don't require a specific grade at all.
That's what I think I'll do and then I can decide on what I want to do.
Thanks for the advice :smile:

What were your predictions and LNAT score if i may ask?

I got AAA when loads of people seem to be getting AAB :redface:


My LNAT score was 19 and my predictions were AAA. my essay for LNAT was literally three paragraphs long and with no structure or argument (I was ill on the day :frown: ) so I am quite surprised. :smile: and very very happy!!! I am definitely going to accept it!

I've just been rejected from Nottingham :frown:


lol dw, their offer policy is weird this year. Half their offers are bloomin' AAB for an AAA course!

I've been rejected as well, but I know thats because I got a relatively weak (but above average) LNAT score. I have an offer from Bham and no rejection from Kings, so I'm perfectly content (although slightly annoyed at Notts' over-reliance on the LNAT).

Still though, similarly to my profile, my friend got 11a*s at GCSE, 4A* predictions, 4 weeks of work experience with a leading barristers chambers and STILL got rejected, merely because he got 17 on the LNAT- a very unfair offer process indeed. Arguably, if someone does bad on ONE TEST, that does not justify rejecting the candidate who otherwise consistently produces good results (this candidate has other offers from LNAT unis and had an interview at Oxford).

I would wager your friend got rejected for something other than the LNAT, i have much worse a CV to them, and got an offer.

GCSEs: A*A*AAAAAAABB
AS: AAAB
A2 Pred: A*A*A + EPQ
LNAT: 19 (same as your friend)

No work experience, just a law summer school.

I would think it's hard to get TCs from anywhere immediately?
I've heard they prefer you to get a little work experience first, but I may be completely off base.

:dontknow:


I think that he had already graduated. :p:

And it's not terribly hard if you're an Oxbridge grad... :wink:

Anyhoo, where've you been? Haven't spoken to you in ages!
