How easy is it to get into law schools as an international?

3

I'm an international student and planning to apply to law schools in the UK. I've taken the LNAT and pretty much finished my personal statement, now i just need help finalising my courses. I have zero idea how the lnat went; the passages were just longer and harder to digest than my practices so i don't have high hopes. Currently my choices are Oxford Law, LSE Law, LSE Anthropology and Law, KCL Law or KCL Law with Criminology, so that leaves one last spot open for another school. I was considering UCL but i believe their LNAT requirement for internationals is high. How difficult is it to get into my current choices, like how do they weigh the LNAT and predicteds for internationals? Also, what unis that do not consider the LNAT should i put as my last choice?

Oxford should treat you the same as home students. The London unis are much easier to get into for international student. KCL especially had ridiculously stricter standards for home students in terms of LNAT score (international students pay a LOT more money than home students and unis need that money).

A few good law schools that don’t consider the LNAT: Warwick, Nottingham, Exeter

Best of luck with everything!
