If I can recall, Law at Harvard is a postgraduate course.

If you write this poorly I wonder how you ever expect to do Law anywhere

Well the difficulty is going to come from the fact that there are Oxbridge, Durham, LSE, UCL, etc. grads that will be applying with firsts. Not many, but enough to make the competition fierce. If you can pull off a 175, then you've got a shot at a T14. But a 175 is hard as hell to get. Have you looked at the LSAT? The LNAT is a coloring book in comparison.

Yes, law is a postgrad course at all US unis.

Nottingham or Nottingham Trent? uni reputation means little, but if you can't get in a decent undergraduate course you're probably not just good enough for harvard :dontknow:

it doesn't completely rule you out.

And many of the replies here will probably be from people who have no clue about how their admission process works so take them with a grain of salt.

You don't have to be a Harvard admissions tutor to know that this course at Harvard is extremely competitive on all levels.

Umm yah, but quite sure they have a holistic approach to selecting their students and just because OP attended a course at nottingham trent doesn't rule him out.

Are you at Nottingham or Nottingham Trent? Are you studying English or Law? The phrasing and general lack of punctuation in your question made it hard to glean much information from it, which could be a problem if you plan to study law (and i would have presumed would be a problem for an english degree)...Troll?

Re-read the Op's op "I'm a student in Nottingham", there's a reason people say that rather than simply say "I'm a student at Nottingham Trent/Oxford Brookes/etc." - it's because they're at the **** one. Harvard admissions will say "lol uni fail" and decline them, you need a strong academic record throughout for any post-grad course in high demand but Harvard Law is probably the most prestigious and in-demand course in existence.
