KCL LLB vs Bristol LLB
I have recently received all of my offers and KCL and Bristol are my top choices. But, they are the same offer and I am having trouble deciding which is better for me. I am wondering which would set me up the best for a career in the legal field inside of the UK.

The difference will be down to you, the strength of the uni's is too similar for that to be the differentiator. So which one has the specialisms you think you might prefer, or which one has the environment in which you think you are more likely to flourish?

honestly I think you should visit one or both if you can/ haven’t already. they’re great yes but if you’re not sure what you want to specialise in, maybe consider location. do you want a standard campus or can it be spread around a city? do you want to stay in London long term? would now be your only opportunity to try a different part of the UK? can you see yourself in said city for the next 3 years?
kcl is beside 3/4 inns of court, several chambers, and the Royal Court of Justice, which was a huge selling point to me as I want to do the criminal bar and already live local vs starting over in Bristol. but that may not mean anything to the next law student, you know? at the top, rank isn’t everything and you know you better than the rest of us. Go where you’ll be happy and thrive- good luck and congrats!! And hope to maybe see you at Kings this fall

Yes, I think I am leaning more towards Kings due to the London atmosphere and it’s location to the inns of Courts as well as firms. Thank you for the advice!
