Anyone heard from LSE Law?

My son got an offer for law end of October but he's worried that he'll not get that uni experience and apparently it's difficult to make friends. Yet, it's an amazing university. Hoping the open day will prove him wrong.

got an offer last December and Im probably gonna firm LSE after being rejected by Oxford haha

Lol I heard if you go back on the link of the questionnaire they made some applicants fill out and you can still get on to it then you have an offer ������

wow you got a law offer? What were your stats? Congrats

but who doesn't want to work for the Goldman Sachs!

So, who reckons another round of offers are going to be made tomorrow then?

They do offers on Monday too? I thought it was just a Thursday thing.

Neither!! Well congrats on your LSE offer, was it the last week of your 4 weeks?

I don't think LSE admissions are so organised as to be pinpointed down to 'offers x day, rejections y day'. They seem like they're just going with the flow

Hello.

I am new to this forum but I really really need HELP!

I hold offers from Oxford University for PPE and from LSE for Philosophy and Economics and I am having trouble to decide which one of them to select as my firm choice.

My school teachers are pushing me towards Oxford I think because it will look good for Ofsted and I feel like I have gone through a lot of trouble (TSA, interviews, etc) only for Oxford. Also when I was there the town felt enchanted.

But I feel that my heart lies with LSE. These are my reasons:

-The job prospects seem to be much better - the course, despite lacking compulsory politics, looks more interesting and applicable to today.
-Despite Oxford's magical aura, I think London may be more advantageous at the end of the day - there is more to do on a daily basis and I can find a job more easily, both during my studies if I need to and afterwards.
-Also I feel that LSE will provide me with a better student experience. Oxford's education from what I heard is overwhelming and you do not have time to enjoy yourself during your studies. The traditional aspect of Oxford (formal hall etc) looks appealing but I have been told that this is only interesting in the beginning.
-The reputation of LSE is improving and of Oxford diminishing slowly from what I can see. I want to be ahead in life and so maybe LSE will be better for this.

As you can see, I personally prefer LSE but I am having trouble declining Oxford because of the "excitement" created around it. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you very much.

choose oxford. its reputation is not diminishing, anything bad people say about Oxbridge is because they didn't go there

Oxford PPE a no brainer. And 3 years compared to LSE's 4 years. If you want to you can take a MSc at LSE after Oxford but you probably realise then you don't need it. Quality of life is better at Oxford.

The fact that you're even thinking of leaving Ox PPE for LSE Phil & Econ suggests LSE is where you really want to go.

Oxford PPE looks better on paper, but it's ultimately about where you're going to be most happy. Entirely up to you.
