Best Unis for Law to apply for with AAA predicted

Been predicted AAA and just looking for some ideas of which unis I should apply to. Currently have Birmingham, Warwick, QMU, Nottingham and Exeter as options but im just looking for some outsider input into these choices so im sure. Picked these unis according to their requirements of AAA with QMU being my only risk uni having A*AA

Nottingham is the best if you have AAA predicted, if you have A*AA predicted then probably LSE or if you're overly ambitious Oxbridge. I would not recommend QMU though, drop that out of your list.

I only picked QMU bc my parents really want me to stay in london but all the other decent london law unis are A*AA which is a huge risk with my predicteds

QMU also requires A*AA for their law course so I would not recommend it if you want to stay in London. You can still apply to London unis with your predictions but you'll likely receive the standard A*AA offer, I do suspect that they take some students who end up with AAA though. Have you done the LNAT?

no not yet, but it seems like none of my options actually need the lnat anymore. I initially bought the test for a few unis in my old choice but since i changed them now I dont need to take it

UCL and Kings do require the LNAT so if you plan to stay in London it might be worth taking. There's also SOAS but I've heard that the teaching there isn't on par. I would recommend looking at unis outside of London,

I was offered a place at UCL but turned it down for Nottingham(with the same grades) and many of my friends at uni had A*A*A* and still chose Nottingham as their firm. It was mainly because I was sick of living in London and I heard accommodation costs can be high.

You should email admissions. You likely will get in with AAA predicted but you should email admissions to be safe

OP, all of your choices are good, QMUH included. I suggest that you should not let your parents determine your choice. If you live in London, there is something to be said for spending a few years in another location, especially if you later pursue a legal career (which may well place you in or near London). All roads and railway lines lead to London, so visiting or being visited by your parents while away at university won't be an issue.

If you achieve AAA or better next summer, you could also consider a gap year and have a go at Oxford, Cambridge, UCL etc.
