if I get all the grades necessary, does one of my five uni choices have to accept me.

When does clearing begin?

And does OU have 1 year courses because I believe they are the complete degree online.

Do they have classes you have to attend to as well?

If you can't use Google to find that out then you're really not university material.

I did and it says undergraduate degrees, I want to see the exact course that PK was recommending for me.

A consistent theme on this thread, I'm sorry to say.

OP is just more used to researching in the library. If it's not on vellum of papyrus, it is not worth OP's time.

Have you looked at the OU site? Might be an idea...

And; yes it has short courses, and attendence depends. Some (most) are entirely online.

You basically pay as you study. You don't have to complete a full degree.

PQ already linked you to the relevant modules in the OU Law course:

You would be better off getting distinctions across your Access credits and taking up some Open University Level 4 law modules (eg http://www.open.ac.uk/courses/qualifications/details/w101 plus http://www.open.ac.uk/courses/qualifications/details/w102 would give you the equivalent of the first year of the OU LLB QLD) alongside sitting GCSE English and Maths - starting as soon as possible after your Access course finishes. You're then applying with the Level 3 requirements for entry completed but with a plan to continue your progress (and back up your qualifications with GCSEs) during the year you're applying.

It is not intense. It's just boring. By which I mean people drop out because it's boring rather than the intensity.

No believe me it's intense, you gotta memorise a huge chunk of ****, in America they don't evan accept you to any law school until you have an undergraduate degree already, the fact that UK allows it paves the way for 18 year old students to study it and either drop out or not progress to the bar because they have been subject to mental rape for 3 years.

You know many of the people advising you in this thread are either currently studying law at university, or are law graduates?

For the avoidance of doubt however IANAL.

And if you feel that way about the course why on earth do you want to study it?? Unless it's for the money... Please don't say it's for the money...........

Or the power....

I didn't say they weren't, I highly doubt some of them are but many may be yes.

But I know it's intense because my access course proves it and the drop out rate is hard, it's the hardest course in the world, that is a universal fact.

As a second year law student, I can guarantee you, it is NOT the hardest course in the “world”.
People DO drop out because the course is generally boring to anyone who isn’t passionate about the subject.
