where are you applying ?
- Edinburgh, Strathclyde, Aberdeen, Dundee and
maybe Glasgow. The LNAT is a bit off-putting because only Glasgow requires it. I just don't know if it's worth it!
what grades do you have ?
- Nothing yet, kinda.
I'm not from UK, so the system here (Finland) is a quite a bit different. I do have excellent grades from my vocational qualification and general secondary school, but a matriculation exam will play a bigger role (currently waiting for some results and then doing some more exams next spring).
what you doing this year ?
- Finishing my schooling in the vocational school and general secondary school. Quite a workload!
any work experience etc ?
- Nope...
any particular uni your hoping to get into ?
- Edinburgh but we'll see about that.
I'm still currently drafting my PS - a bit late from my planned schedule but I guess I'm still not in hurry. Also I'm trying to contact my homeroom teacher this week to talk about the reference. I'm hoping she'll agree to write it, after all, writing a reference - and in English on top of that - is not something that teachers here often need to do.
I'm a bit worried, because I haven't had any time for doing anything extra regarding law. After having a 8-21 school day you just really don't feel like grabbing a foreign book about law for leisurely reading.
