MPhil/DPhil Law and Socio Legal Research- 2024

My interview was on the 22nd. It went reasonably well. They said decisions would be made in two weeks. They had 150 applicants for the Dphil, they will do 30 inteviews for 9 spots. I wouldnt think all the interviews are done yet. So I would hold out some hope though obviously as time goes on that possibility diminishes.

Thanks for sharing that. Would you know if it’s full-time stats or full-time and part-time combined?

Thank you so much for sharing! I also applied but have not heard anything regarding an interview yet, even though I already talked with a potential supervisor... I hope it is not over yet!

Hoping we can hear something this evening, any portal changes? For interviews portals shouldn’t change generally speaking but worth a look.

MPhil Law/DPhil Law shouldn't have interviews as that's why additional requirements are set for the course (written work). So there should be no contact in February generally speaking and it be a wait until the 10/20th March. But yeah only socio-legal courses should have interviews. Has anyone heard for MPhil Socio-Legal Research? Faith is now reaching 0% haha.

Took the interview on the 28th (Dphil in socio-legal). Just noticed that upload button has disappeared. Not feeling optimistic as I feel I didn't do well in the interview.

I flubbed a question too. I wouldnt worry about it. I doubt theyd throw out an application over one flubbed question. I expect it will come down to whether they can match you with a supervisor who is willing.

Thanks for the reassurance. But honestly, I feel that my potential supervisor was not very interested in my project. Anyway, it's all in the past. Gook luck to you!
