[QUOTE="N.9, post: 73162, member: 9427"] Hello everyone, I'm really interested in doing an LLM at LSE, but I'm unsure whether I meet the academic requirements and was wondering whether anyone with direct experience in this arena would be kind enough to provide any input. So, I come from a non-law background, with a strong 2.1 in that degree. I then completed a post-grad LLB at BPP and achieved only a 2.1 with 61. I also completed an LLM Legal Practice (also) at BPP and achieved a Merit (62). On their website, LSE's requirements state that I should have 'a very good degree in another discipline together with very good grades in an appropriate graduate diploma in law (such as the UK's Graduate Diploma in Law) may also qualify for a place.' If I understand correctly, I am quite sure that my grades won't be sufficient, assuming they strictly abide by this policy. Is there any wiggle-room in reality? The card up my sleeve is that I also have quite excellent experience (a year's worth) in the specialism I wish to pursue, so might this work considerably in my favour and pull me over, where my grades fail me? I'd also appreciate any input as to my likelihood of receiving an offer for LLMs at Kings and UCL, which are my second choices! Any input, thoughts etc would be greatly appreciated! [/QUOTE]
