Hi
Hope you are well,
I was hoping I could get some help with regards to personal statement for LLM application. I completed my LLB 9 years ago and hoping to get a place on LLM intake in Jan 2021, it’s cutting it short. Im rusted for time so was hoping for some guidance on writing my LLM personal statement.
Thank you

Hello! I hope you are all doing well. I am applying for an LLM and I really need help with my personal statement. It would be great if you guys could share yours for inspiration or give me pointers for a good personal statement. I am really interested in the area of Bankruptcy and it would be great if you guys could guide me.
Hi Karin,Hi! This may be quite late but I successfully applied for LLM at UCL so please drop me a message and I am happy to share my Personal Statement with you
I know this is an old(ish) post but I'm looking to apply for the LLM too and would love your help?!
Thanks,
Isobel
Just came across this thread. Happy to share my PS for LLM’s at UCL and Kings (received offers from both) particularly for those who did a non-law degree first
Hi isobelhowe, I think I shared most of my tips here https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/forum/threads/advice-for-llm-personal-statements.2806/. , however, if you still need help please drop me a message!
Hi, If you don't mind, is it ok if you share your statement with me, applying to KCL this year
I'm not sure about UCL, but I think you have a decent chance for LSE.
Hi! Do you mind sharing your LLM personal statement with me as I will be applying for an LLM? Thanks
Hi James,Hi Alina,
I have just come across this thread;
I would also be happy to give any advice/share my statement for the UCL LLM should you want.
I'm applying this year and just come across this thread. Would you be willing to send me you UCL LLM? 🙂
Hi! I know this is an old thread but I am currently in the process of applying to LSE and UCL in their LLM programmes. If you could share your Personal Statement with me it would be greatly appreciated.
I have been thinking whether to apply for the LLM at LSE, UCL and potentially Kings. I received a first overall in my undergrad from a RG uni. That being said my grades from 1st/2nd year are not great at all to be honest. Although I made up for that in 3rd and 4th year, I am worried the totality of my transcript looks fairly weak - I am not sure whether to apply? Does anyone have any advice please
Hi @tlaw_98. I'm doing my LLM at the LSE currently and secured places at Kings and UCL as well. I do not believe that any of these universities have entry requirements based on your 1st and 2nd-year grades so your overall First should be just fine. Worth emailing Admissions in case you still have a doubt! 😊I have been thinking whether to apply for the LLM at LSE, UCL and potentially Kings.

Hi! I am currently in the process of applying to LSE and UCL in their LLM programmes. If you don’t mind, do you have any tips regarding the personal statement? What did you include? What was the structure you used? Also, LSE does not have a fixed word limit but they don’t expect statements to be longer than 1000-1500 words. I personally think that’s a bit long and I would just be repeating things on my CV. How many words would you recommend?
