I randomly had an opportunity to speak to a professor at one of my chosen universities, my dad had met them and they passed on my number. The professor in question was a law professor for a few years at my chosen uni and then they also were heavily involved in lots of other big unis
And my question is considering that the timeline is in the 1980-90s where the professor did work at my uni, is it worth to heavily base my decisions on their opinions. I respect them a lot and due to my family background I had never had a privilege to meet someone so significant. Is it worth to base my UCAS decisions on the advice I get from the professor.
