Can I get into a law course with a lot of highers, or do I need to take advanced highers?

Thank you

Hi,

I was taking a look at the University of Edinburgh webpage as I am more knowledgeable on a-levels then on Highers and I found that they include "With the exception of medicine and veterinary medicine, Advanced Highers are not required for entry. However, we strongly recommend that you pursue your studies at a more advanced level by taking at least one subject at Advanced Higher." So I think the decision is entirely up to you and the basis of what university that you would like to apply to say about their requirements. However, if you are still unsure, you should email or phone your chosen universities.
