[QUOTE="TitoTL, post: 211261, member: 37227"] Hi all, this is my first time writing on this forum and I'm seeking advice on my legal education journey. I was studying law at a decent (but non RG) London University however I decided to leave halfway through my first year because of unavoidable personal circumstances. I come from an immigrant background so making this decision was extremely difficult and the response from my family honestly accelerated the circumstances surrounding my leaving. I have taken a considerable amount of time out of my studies, during which I secured a 6 month internship at a specialised civil law firm as well as completed virtual work experiences with Forage, I wholeheartedly want to study Law and I'm committed to it as a career path. I would love to complete an LLB but because of the time I have already lost and family pressure I'm looking at doing an accelerated LLB as a non graduate. I previously posted my query on Reddit and received some harsh but well meaning advice on how this is practically impossible and I should just re-apply to the standard LLB at a good university or a RG. I understand this opinion but with my A levels A*,B,B,B I was not able to secure admission into RGs in my first cycle and I cannot see why this would change especially as I'm competing with newer cohorts. The universities that offer a 2 year LLB which I meet entry requirements for are University of Hertfordshire, University of Law, University of South Wales and University of Northampton, I know that stereotypically these universities may not rank the best for securing TCs in major firms but I'm willing to work hard and try my luck. Which University would you advise I would have a higher chance of securing a job with? I am also looking at applying to a better University for a post graduate LLM which has always been part of my plan even before dropping out in 1st year (the main reason why I am not too fussed on these Universities not being the most prestigious). Another thing to add I might have to leave the UK altogether if I cannot return to my studies soon because of my family hence why I'm considering accelerated courses. Thank you and I'm open to anyone's advice on this. [/QUOTE]
