[QUOTE="prospectiveswitcher, post: 175675, member: 24174"] Seriously consider before jumping into the course. 'Being offered' is not necessarily a positive sign from the law schools fyi - they will take anyone as they want the fees. BPP is not a bad school - all the big law firms send their trainees there, but I have heard of a lot of gripes people have with the place, but most get on fine. You say you want to be a judge - so you would typically (but not always) begin as a barrister for this route. Why would you sit the SQE (the path to qualify as a solicitor) if that is your long term goal? I would suggest taking some time to do more research before committing to a course of study. Most of the schools will be pretty much the same - nearly all the top law firms send trainees to either BPP or University of Law, and people have issues with both, but they are (probably) still the best options.
