Law Applicants 2011 Offer Thread

Ah ok yeah there are 3 types of CLT exams, irritatingly, my college wouldn't tell me which they were using until I got there! Mine was...ok, I wish I'd had longer to do it in though, I think I wrote some pretty decent arguments overall, may have gotten a little carried away once or twice though!

Haha! I do like the place, it is nice and near london too. Hehe most of my teachers understand we need some pushing to actually get down to the work I'm not on the law applicants group, so I'll send you my name in a minute...btw I got rejected from UCL this afternoon!! Got my track email whilst in the dentist's chair, too, so not a fantastic afternoon

I've noticed that some people have got offers for Nottingham with the conditions AAB, when they're standard offer is AAA. Anyone who has been given the lower offer, did they say why your offer was reduced?

Has anybody applied to SOAS? :/

Hi there, quick question.

Supposing i did early application and was unsuccessful but my actual exam grades were good is it possible to contact the uni directly to ask them to reconsider my application? anyone heard of a case like that?

please let me know! thanks (:

No way!!! I forever hold a grudge against UCL , an amazing candidate with your grades, excellent personal statement and amazing score in LNAT, I just dont understand
Oh well we should go to UCL and be like 'We are firming Cambridge so meh!'Oh my dentist and rejections my two worst fears..despite the fact that as a child i loved going to the dentist( yes I might have a problem :P)

My Bristol offer was for 37 pts. Yours?

Is this in reference to the York Law course? I looked back over previous posts and I think that's what you're talking about. If not, then please - ignore this! I recieved a letter from York and have been trying to work out if other people recieved the same letter. Here's what it said;

Dear -----

Many congratulations! I am pleased to inform you that we have been able to make you an offer of a place on the LLB in Law. You will shortly recieve a letter from the University setting out the details of the offer.

I am writing to let you know that your interview performance was particularly impressive, placing you as one of the best candidates who were offered a place. The Law programme at York Law School presents a very different learning experience from the more traditional lecture and tutorial based approach offered by other universities. It is challenging and intellectually demanding but, to the right candidate, it offers the oppurtunity to achieve a deeper and more critical understanding of the law. Your interviewers were of the opinion that you are exceptionally well-suited to profiting from the method of learning and teaching adopted here at York. We think you would do exceptionally well at York Law School, both in terms of your own development and what you could contribute. I very much hope that you will accept our offer.

Yours sincerely

Stuart Bell.

I very much doubt this is the rumoured letter as at one point during the interview I started talking about beagles wearing lipstick and, at another, i completely lost my train of thought and was stupid enough to actually tell them so...oops!
I don't know if anyone got this letter but either way I can't see that it makes much difference - unfortunately my offer is still the standard AAA

Just as a matter of interest - what do you think of the course/how do you think law firms will view it?

There's no guarantee that they will reconsider you as grades may not have been the reason the rejected you. By the time you get in touch they may have already run out of places too.

Having said that, you've got nothing to lose by trying and I've heard of unis reversing their decisions before. Drop them an email

What college
