Law with law in europe
Hi everyone, planning to do law with law studies in Europe at one of the top unis (Oxford, Durham, KCL, ucl). How much more competitive is this than regular law, what is the impact on the required LNAT score, and what other super-curricular activities can I do to help me get in.
Also, if you apply for law with law studies but get rejected, will you get an offer for the regular law degree or not, and if not, would it be advisable to apply for both courses at the same university??

Also applied to this by the way, except only for Oxford. It’s VERY competitive. Context of Oxford only: Around 230 students places are accepted for Oxford law. Of this number, 18 make it to the LSE course. I applied and got rejected (expected since Oxford only interviews 30% of applicants whereas Cambridge interviews 70%). My advice is whatever your super/extra curriculars, it has to be law based with a bit of the European Union stuff sprinkled on top. But I think my biggest advice to you is the LNAT. An undeniably impressive score will get you in to any university you want. So ace it, prepare as early as you can. I didn’t and I regret it because I know if I had I would’ve had a very high chance of getting in. My entire application was very impressive, personal statement, strong references, super/extra curriculars at a vast amount. But where I fell short was the LNAT. Do not make the same mistake as I. Prepare well, ace it and be sure that you’ll get in.

Thank you. With regards to the LNAT, what were the main mistakes you did that you wish you didn’t make? What did you learn too late?
Also, how early should I be preparing for this?

My mistake was the part A. I guessed almost more than half. I didn’t prepare at all. Not wise. My advice to you is prepare now, the earlier the better. Devote a couple hours a week to the lnat alongside your standard revision. But start now. There is a website called LNAT Ninja but the questions are too easy on it, you can use it but only to familiarise with the question style. Research some other preparation methods and start now. Learn from my mistake, and, best of luck!

If these Law degrees require a language A level, they tend to be less competitive than straight Law - simply because of the limited number of people now taking languages.
If you are in Year 12, this is a question to ask - along with your other questions - at any Uni Open Day.

No, purely because this course only welcomes one applicant per college. Everyone else thinks that no one will apply but many, many people do, hence the lower acceptance rate. But in the end it's fine as you're still considered for straight law.

What do you mean, as in, if you get rejected from law with law in europe, they can still accept you for the regular law course?
