Law at queen mary or foundation law at durham

Hey guys this is worrying me quite a lot, I’ve heard Durham is an amazing university and it ranks well for law however I’m not too sure about the foundation year, it is quite far from my home so I’m worried to take the risk especially cuz at the end of the course my degree is law with foundation so some law firms or chambers may brush past it as it’s a foundation year. In terms of queen Mary is it a better option as I can jump straight into the year and is still top 10??

The foundation year won't matter, go to the uni you like the most. So if that's Durham, then go there! :smile:

Your degree certificate will not mention the Foundation year.
