Law at uni?

I am applying to study Law at university in a few months and I know that this is a tough course to get in to- especially for universities down south in England.

I am wondering what other activities I could do to put on my personal statement to demonstrate my keen interest and show my skills. I have done some work experience at the Crown Office and shadowed some lawyers. I have a couple of more placements at various law firms which should be interesting. I am also doing further reading on the subject and entering a couple of essay competitions.

There is no mooting or debating opportunities in my area so I am quite gutted about that. I have also been looking for volunteering work but have not had much luck.

What else should I do?

Thank you for the help ^.^!

Hey,

Have you already applied? Or are you looking to apply?
Honestly you wont have much space on your PS, so I think the things you have done is more than enough.

Also I would like to recommend the Personal Statement Review. At the top go to Personal Statements > Help Service.
I am one of the reviewers and would be happy to give you a more detailed insight once I have read a draft.

Mention the past experience, then near the bottom mention that you are utilising the summer with more experience.
Further reading is also relevant as long as it is something new and not a cliche or typical read.

Good Luck
