Is a PPL considered a law degree? I heard that if you want to study law at the postgraduate level, you may have to follow a different path than if you had pursued a traditional law degree.

I'm pretty sure no? You still get an LLB degree which is required for postgraduate studies but try to email the university itself

Hi I was just wondering if kings takes a gathered field approach to general engineering undergraduate applications and how long the response time is.
i applied for biomedical sciences but haven’t got a decision yet

Does Kings College wait until the last minute to let applicants know if they've been selected..? For Spring 2024 term, it seems to be getting late in decision window? Anyone already hear back for next semester.?

it varies a lot per course, I got my offer at the start of march but some people on my course didn't hear back until later, whereas some courses wait it out close to the deadline. if you apply early then theres a chance you can hear back faster too, especially if its not a super competitive course
