Law Offers for 2016?

Original post by legalmind
I am also of the opinion that BPP is the practical choice, for me it is the best value not only because it is cost-friendly; I think what they are teaching is the necessary skills needed in the profession. I am almost convinced before however I am thinking of the reputation of BPP. I have read in some forum that the staff are not supportive and it would give prospective employers the notion that the student is not competitive enough to get into the traditional univs. But I have seen LLB graduate from BPP who managed to land a training contract with a US firm based in London.


It's very difficult deciding what the reputation of BPP actually is. Being a private university its exempt from all the league tables, and thus the statistics are hard to obtain. In regards to future employers I read an article a while back in which many London based law firms spoke out about the relationship they have with the BPP University, and one of the founders had studied there himself so I don't think it will be looked down upon at all, if anything it will open up more opportunities. Oh, and the lowered fee helps also! :biggrin:

I got an email from Nottingham a month after they received my application that said "candidates who clearly meet or exceed our standard entry requirements and who score highly in the LNAT will be made an offer shortly after the initial analysis. Applications from candidates who clearly meet or exceed our standard entry requirements but who do not score so highly in the LNAT will be gathered and held. Those candidates who do not clearly meet our standard entry requirements and/or who do not score highly in the LNAT will not be made an offer." And so as a result I thought that I got a bad LNAT score, but I got 33 and I am predicted 43 for IB adn so I was wondering whether this is a generic email, did you get one like this?

I got this email, I recieved an offer for AAA about three weeks after the email with LNAT score of 27

Ahh fair enough, sorry to dwell on it a bit but do you think you did much 'wrong' in the interview?
