Rejected from Oxford Law
Rejected from Oxford Law with 3A* predicted, all 9s, 32 on the LNAT, glowing references, and a personal statement that all my teachers, and everyone I got feedback from, said was very good. Got an offer from
Leeds day after my application was sent in so surely personal statement can’t be bad. I don’t get it. This has been my dream school genuinely since I was 5 years old, I can’t stop crying and I genuinely do not get it. I know this is dramatic but it just hurts more because all my stats are perfect. Help.

Please do not be disheartened. Nine or more people apply for each place. Rejection does not mean that you are a failure. You can thrive elsewhere. You could try again next year.
Stats are not dispositive. Every application is looked at in the round.
How do you know your LNAT score? Also, did your teachers write your PS? You describe your PS as "all my teachers", but I suspect that in your emotion you have expressed yourself unclearly.

the lnat score may have been found through the jindal method, which is selecting jindal global law school on the lnat website, they then email u ur results like 1-3 weeks after
