I’m considering applying to law in Scotland, aiming for Edinburgh since it’s my dream uni but I’m concerned that it’s extremely competitive and I won’t get in, I don’t have many things to add to my PS that link to it - I did a classroom assistant work placement in a primary school, but obviously that doesn’t link very well, then some volunteer proofreading online but that’s not a lot. I’m willing to do online free courses or watch lectures too, but I know how competitive the course is so I’m worried even that will barely do anything for my application. I got AAAAA in my highers in S5, in English, maths, French, classical studies and art. This year, I’m sitting Advanced higher art and English, and higher modern and history.
Should I go with law, or am I setting myself up for disappointment?? My other thoughts included psychology, I could do a strong application for it however I’m not necessarily sure I want to pursue a masters/doctorate in it so I feel like I’d maybe be wasting my time. Is there any other degrees I’d be suited for?? I’m going to ask my careers advisors I think, but I’d like some other opinions from anyone willing to help me!!
