Warwick or University of Birmingham for LAW???

Both are equally as good in terms of employment prospects. The real choice is whether you want to live in Coventry or Birmingham? I would choose Birmingham personally because Coventry is a ghost town, but that's just me.

yeah Coventry is a ghost town but then again I want to choose a uni based on which one is better overall etc, im so confused rn

They're both pretty equal in terms of reputation and employment prospects, Warwick does rank as a better university overall but is not really a huge brand name outside the UK.
What exactly are you looking for? I could care less about brand names and turned down UCL and Durham for Nottingham. I don't see the point because all the Russell group unis are well known and outside of the UK it's only Oxbridge, LSE or possibly Imperial who would get recognised by international employers. However, top employers in the UK prefer to recruit from Nottingham: https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/sci/statistics/highfliers-graduate-market-report-2024.pdf

It says Birmingham is first, I think that does it for me as I just wanted to go to the uni with higher graduate prospects, do these ranking change every year or remain the same usually year by year?

For Law there is no difference in the quality of the courses at Birmingham or Warwick. As universities Warwick edges Birmingham for overall reputation, and is widely regarded as a top 10 UK university, although Warwick has a great reputation mainly for STEM courses, and not so much for others. Warwick has a more competitive student culture, as students are ranked against one another in their courses. I would choose Warwick over Birmingham for a academic reputation, but Birmingham has the more beautiful campus, and it isn't a clear cut decision. Birmingham has closed the gap on Warwick in the global rankings in the last 10 years. There was a time in the 90s and 00s when Warwick was seen as significantly more prestigious than Birmingham, but that has gradually changed.

thanks for your input! I will defo keep this in mind, im still choosing so am unsure
