Hi guys,
Has anyone applied to law school (LLB) in the UK with an earlier BA degree?
I am a mature EU student and would like to apply to law school in the UK. I have an earlier BA which I completed four years ago. I didn't fully concentrate on my studies as I was working full time and my grades are average.
As I live abroad I was thinking of doing a certain amount of Open University courses (60 ECTS) in computer science and then applying with my grade point average.
I know it's not the same subject but I need a B plan/work and will explain this in my personal statement. I'm also looking into shadowing or an office assistant job at a law firm to further show my motivation.
Has anyone applied this way (Open University/earlier degree) and do you think this route is looked down upon compared to A-levels, Access to HE etc.?
My goal is Oxbridge and the Russel group. I have contacted the universities and they have said this route is okay.
Thank you for your help!
Best regards,
Wiiret
