SOAS vS Sheffield Vs Nottingham Vs Durham (for law)

so basically, heres my dilema:

for my 5 options so far I've chosen Bristol, Manchester, Glasgow and Newcastle.

My main considerations in a university are it's social scene and It's people. I'm an Indie leftist who wants to specialise in human rights law, and I love to party, so I basically want to know which uni I should chose that will fit that criteria and where I will get on with people. All of these unis are within my academic range too.

I'm confused - why does your title say SOAS v Sheffield v Nottingham v Durham whereas your text mentions 4 different unis :confused:

What unis are you actually considering?

I'm confused, can you explicitly state which universities you're definitely applying to and then potential options?

Why have you picked Durham as a definite choice if your main considerations in a uni are its social scene, and you're an Indie leftist who loves to party?

Up to you obviously but I would have thought if you like lively cities, Durham would be less than ideal. You will still have lots of opportunties by going to Nottingham or Sheffield and they seem to have more in common with your other 4 choices and a closer match to what you say you are looking for
