English Lit for law

If i don't english literature a level, would it put me at a disadvantage for law at cambridge? or other russel groups?

I would say it doesn't put you at a disadvantage but they specifically look for essay subjects (e.g. history, eng lit, sociology etc.) I don't think they would offer you a place if you did all sciences as it doesn't show the required skills.

Cambridge says English or other essay-based subjects are good preparation for studying law but not required. So the skills would be useful, but not having the qualification wouldn't be disadvantageous. Why not do it though? Law has a lot of reading and analysis.

im doing history classics maths and maybe spanish, would it be better to replace spanish with english? it's only because i think i could get a better grade in spanish

Your options are perfect for law. History and classics give you the same skills you'd get from english. Take the subjects you think you'd enjoy most because you're more likely to do better and grades matter most.

I want to study law too and I'm doing maths, history, economics and further maths. After a lot of research, I settled on these because I feel like I'd enjoy these subjects most and that's what really matters.

Goodluck with your decision x
