Extra activities?

Anyone know where I can find some extra activities to do and put on my application? I haven't had any luck finding them myself

If your school/college has it, you could try doing a MOOC on Unifrog.

What are you applying for?

Are you interested in super curriculars for your PS or the “extra activities” question. The latter isn’t actually sent to universities

Hi @Tofwg,

I don't study law but here are some activities you could do:

•

Start a debating society or join one

•

Volunteering in a place where you can engage with a range of people such as in charity shops (this shows that you can engage and work with people from a variety of backgrounds)

•

Litter picking - you can do this in your own time once a week or twice a week (it shows that you care for the environment but can also commit to something that you set to do yourself)

•

Tutoring (this shows you can explain things in different ways to help people understand what your re trying to say)

I hope these help give an idea.

What do you currently like to do in your spare time?

Listen to Law in Action on BBC Sounds then find out more about anything they mention that sounds interesting to you.

^^^ BBC Radio 4 - Law in Action - Available now

Law in Action podcasts are brilliant for giving you up to date discussion topics for your PS.
And if none of these interest you - choose something other than Law for Uni..
