Cambridge masters.

Hello 😊

I am currently in my final year of the LLB. Recently I have been reconsidering my options.

I am now considering applying to Cambridge. There are many reasons why I now want to apply.

However, I am attending a non-russell group university (would this affect the application?). I also received BCC in my A-Levels.

Therefore, I would like someone advice and opinions on my application.

I have been confused about my studies up until now. Law is what I am passionate about. I believe I am proven to succeed in what I am passionate about. I received an overall 1st in my first year, and a 2:1 in my second year. I am therefore aiming for a 1st in my final year following my disappointment from the second year.

I was also diagnosed with dyslexia at the end of year two of the LLB.

Thank you for taking the time to read. I look forward to hearing from you all.

BCC in Alevel just doesn't matter. All they need is your undergraduate performance and anything in high school won't be relevant. A non-Russell group university doesn't mean you won't be considered by Cambridge. Also you should mention dyslexia in your application I think they will consider it parallel with your second year grade as well.
