Good books for Law? I plan to read a tonne of books about Law and also books related to my history a level. To prepare myself for the amount of reading ill do at a level.
I ak currently reading The Law Machine
http://astore.amazon.co.uk/mcbridesguide-21 This website has a series of books recommended by Nicholas McBride (director of studies for law at Pembroke College, University of Cambridge). All the ones I've read so far have been interesting/insightful and would probably stand you in good stead. If you've not read his book Letters to a Law Student I would recommend that first though only half will be useful to you pre-university.
Woohoo! I was so relieved when I checked my email omg SO HAPPY
I checked portico and upon seeing it was being 'processed' I just thought WHAT IT CHANGED?! So I checked track - not even expecting anything - only to see I got an offer, that was the biggest shock of my whole life!! How are you feeling about potentially studying in London?
Hi! I have also applied to KCL and I was wondering whether or not they first give out the rejections ? I have applied in mid October and still have not heard back from them
I think they have already given out some rejections, but seems like no offers yet. I am waiting since November 9th as well

That book is highly overrated, a waste of money and the contents are not worth the paper its written on. McBride should just rename the book 'Letters to a Cambridge Law Student' instead. Cambridge operates under a collegiate system where you have one lecturer babysitting the same 7 students for that entire academic year. So there is no way in hell that the 7 students will perform miserably in exams. If you bear this in mind and re-read the book, you can see that the intention behind the book was to guide Cambridge students or students from any other institution that practices the collegiate system.
If it were up to me, law students should read books on administrative, constitutional, public or the English Legal System. These are very heavily content based subjects and a little head-start now will hold you in good stead.
In my opinion, 'The Law Machine' is an amazing book. It is divided into chapters and each chapter tells you about the English legal system, the lawyers, the judges etc... I highly recommend it!

I've been waiting since October. Though an administrative error meant they only got my LNAT in mid-Jan so I assume I'm in for the long-haul with them now. Good luck!
