MA Law (SQE1); MA Law Conversion; PGDL – University of Law

[W5690]

Hello,

As an international student with a civil law background, I am planning to undertake a conversion course at the University of Law. However, I am hesitating between the MA Law (SQE1), MA Law Conversion and PGDL. I have researched about those courses and I am wondering whether law firms pay particular attention to any of them. I would be more interested in the MA Law (SQE1) or MA Law Conversion, but I have noticed that some law firms require non-law students to complete the PGDL, hence my doubts. @Jessica Booker Could you please let me know your thoughts on this? Also, I do not really know whether an SQE1 preparation course included in a law conversion course is worth considering, hence my hesitation between the MA Law (SQE1) and MA Law Conversion. Many thanks.

I would like to add that I am aware of the fact that completing a qualifying law degree or a conversion law course is no longer a regulatory requirement by the SRA.

Many thanks.

Law firms will have no preference to which one is studied.

I cannot really comment as I don't know the details of both courses unfortunately.
