AS Level Law

I am currently in Year 12 studying history, politics, and law and have achieved B, C, and C (in that order), but my teachers may raise my grades to A, B, or B predicted, as I received a high B and C for history and politics and year around have received steady Bs, and sometimes A. Would there be any universities that would give me an offer for these grades as I am interested in law, IR, politics, and maybe history?( If you know any course similar to them please tell me ).

As I had a look at quite a lot of university websites in regard to what they would need, which is mostly A*AA or AAA,
Although I do mostly want to study law, I don't know if I can apply to any good universities. I have had a look into the foundation years, which I don't mind doing, as I have been told that it does matter what law university you go to so any advice would be helpful thank you ^^

Hi there,

It's great to hear you're interested in studying Law, History, Politics or International Relations. We offer all these subjects as undergraduate courses, as well as some combinations of two subjects, for example, Law with Politics.

In terms of entry requirements for Law LLB, we currently require A-level grades of AAB-ABB. For LLB Law with an Integrated Foundation Year, the entry requirements are currently CCC.

If you'd like to find out more about any of our courses, the best thing to do is search for the subjects you're interested in using our course finder. You can also chat to a current student studying these subjects for more information on the course and what it's like to be a Royal Holloway student.

I hope this is useful - wishing you the best of luck!

Royal Holloway, University of London

See if you're eligible for any contextual offers! Exeter's standard offer for Law is AAA for example, but their contextual offer is ABB and they are quite generous on giving out contextual offers. Best of luck.

Generous? What a totally 'Exeter' mindset.
If you need any illustration of the type of student that goes to Exeter - and attitudes - this was probably it.

What an odd assumption to make from a statement meant in good faith. I have no clue what you mean by an ‘Exeter’ mindset but I don’t intend to study at Exeter, so I am not representative of an Exeter student.

For context, I got a contextual offer from Exeter, and so did a lot of my classmates who did not think they would get an offer. The term “generous” was meant in a good way, and I genuinely do believe that universities like Exeter, which contextualise applications, are right in valuing potential. I am still unsure on what you were insinuating but you know what they say about assuming.
