[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 85399, member: 2672"] I wouldn’t worry about this right now. You don’t even know whether you will enjoy your degree at this stage, let alone whether you will want to spend another year studying it An LLM at Oxford is also pretty competitive in itself. So much so, that you’d most likely already be a good applicant for the vast majority of firms before you had even secured your LLM, because the traits Oxford look for in their applicants in many respects will be the same as law firms. So it’s unlikely to make you a more competitive applicant, because you’d already be one. It’s obviously a good thing to have on your CV, and for some particularly competitive chambers (if you want to be a barrister rather than a solicitor) then it might help. But it wouldn’t be necessary for law firms. [/QUOTE]
