Best London law unis for grades AAB?

I'm looking for law courses in London and aiming for A in Law, A in Sociology, and B in Criminology BTEC. I'm especially interested in criminal, family or corporate law. Has anyone taken these at Royal Holloway or other London unis? Any advice or feedback would be really appreciated! 😊

Grade requirements of unis in London vary quite widely. City, Royal Holloway and SOAS typically require/accept 3 A-Level subjects at AAB, you may check whether they accept 2 A-Levels and 1 BTEC.
Is London-based a must? You may consider Cardiff, Manchester Metropolitan, Nottingham Trent and Reading if you are willing to move away from London.
If you insist on London unis, Brunel, London Metropolitan, London South Bank, Middlesex and Westminster are far more lenient on grades. Good luck.

Why just London?

Hi there, how are you?
Generally speaking, when you are choosing a university, look at how a particular university's course differs from other universities. How is their teaching style different? What is the schools focus? Where do students from this university end up?
I can break down SOAS for you. SOAS is unique and is known as the World's University because we specialise in the areas of Africa, Asia and the Middle East. Our focus as a university is decolonising the curriculum, what this means in the class room is that when studying law at SOAS, you get more than just the traditional English Legal system, you learn about law from a globalised perspective which (in my opinion) is more interesting. We have modules on Islamic Law and Legal Systems of Asia and Africa (you can find the list of all the optional modules here).
Regarding your interests, at SOAS, criminal law is taught first year as one of your core modules. Family and corporate law are optional modules and can be chosen in your second or third year.
In terms of employability, studying law at SOAS gives you an advantage particularly if you are interested in practising internationally or in the fields we specialise in. Our graduates have gone to work at Clifford Chance, A&O Shearman and the United Nations, EY, HM Treasury, The Economist and so many others that can be found at the bottom of this website.
All of this is to say, that studying law at SOAS is different to studying at other universities and if you use that to your advantage there is no limit to how well you can do in your career but it is up to you to put the effort in. Overall, no one can decide what university is better for you so you need to do your research. I would highly recommend booking a campus tour and speaking to our students on Unibuddies so that you can make the best choice for you.
For some extra reading, as part of your research, here are some blogs from our SOAS Law Alumni who went on to practice as an Islamic Finance lawyer and another who went on to become an alumni who now works in Dubai.
I hope this helps. If you have any questions, feel free to comment on this thread or DM 🙂

Could you please confirm whether you are paid, or otherwise incentivised, by SOAS to endorse or promote its courses on this site?
