Which colleges have lowest application to place ratio?

More specifically for law and over the long term, not just the fluctuations in the past year. I know the pooling sytem "helps keep it even" but some colleges such as kings are obviously going to be more oversubsrcribed than others. SO any ideas which colleges have the lowest number of applicants per place for Law??????? Guesses would suffice!!!!!!

Don't go for that, Josh. Lots of people do the same thing, and what you find is that most people apply for the one with the lowest applicants to place ratio for the previous year, leaving that college with one of the highest in the university for that year. This means a lot more competition for the place. Choose a college you like, not one that might be "easier," because I guarantee it won't be.

An advice dont go for Downing if u want a few applicants! It's reputed for law and usually gets the highest ratio...

There aren't really any long-term trends as far as I can see, for precisely the reason I stated above. Don't get sucked into the numbers game, as it is often a mistake for many people.

If you have lots of questions, why not post on one of the stickies re potential Oxbridge applicants? There's one here and one on Oxbridge, and people with places try to answer your qs :smile:
