Hmm, I thought Durham stated on their website that no minimum score is required for the multiple choice part of the LNAT


Wait.. I got offered a place at Durham with a score of 22. My essay was was pretty good though :smile:
I believe Durham tend to focus more on the personal statement and work experience.

I think they went through the initial pool and made decisions on the people they were really sure about and now they're trying to sort through the remaining people by narrowing and heightening criteria

Do you mind sharing what you wrote for work experience? >.<

Well, I spent a few months visiting a barrister in my country who showed me the basics of contract law and some other areas of law as well. He took me a few times to court and gave me the chance to witness his work. I was helping him with drafting some documents and he was explaining everything he was doing in detail :smile:
I was also an intern at a firm that protects air passangers' rights. I was writig and publishing articles and had to read aviation law in depth :smile:
I also had some extracurricular activities like debating.
I believe universities want to see your dedication because they know how bad everyone here wants to study law at a top place. Unfortunately, that's not enough. You need to have achived something like winning or taking part in serious competitions. This is a chance to prove yourself.

If the reputation of the uni and employability after graduation is more important then LSE, although Bristol is still good for both. If the uni experience as a whole is more important, then Bristol will probably offer a better 'student life'. I was debating KCL over Nottingham until recently, until someone mentioned that studying in London could potentially feel like going to work every day, due to how different London 'campuses' are to other uni's. Hope this helps :smile:


After visiting London again and wandering round campus having a chat with students, decision is finally made.
Firmed LSE and Bristol is insurance.😀Can't go wrong with either.

no the actual score


They gave you feedback in the rejection email or did you contact them separately? I didn't get any at all in my rejection email, but want to know which part of my application wasn't suitable for them.

I'm pretty sure I saw on here somewhere that an international student with a 23/24 LNAT score get accepted on here... It baffles me that they cited that as the reason for you.

It seems to me that they're less stringent with international students.

Most Unis will understandably be concentrating on getting final offers at the moment - you can hardly expect your request for feedback on a rejection to be their priority......

They are not governed by any student targets and they represented serious ££. Of course Unis will treat them differently.

Is there any need to be so condescending? As their rejection email offered that they would answer queries on feedback then understandably other people have probably asked too

It may take a while (alive heard someone waiting for two weeks) but they will get back to.you, so keep on tight.

The most common reason is, probably, "too many good applicants", which is mostly generic and is used to avoid giving elaborate feedback.

Is 7A*s still considered good for law at Oxford even though that's the average for my school

I have firmed my offer from Sheffield for law :smile:
I'm waiting for feedback on my LSE M100 Law rejection but I guess it was due to my performance in UGAA as I had to sit one due to me being a mature student doing Access to HE.
