I was due to start an LLM course at home in September but due to Student Finance issues I managed to defer my place until January 2021. However, now with lockdown 3.0 announced and any hope of on-campus teaching being diminished, should I save my money and not do the masters? Especially if I manage to secure a TC and get a combined masters with my LPC, or just do an LLM at a time when covid is over (hopefully not the too distant future!)


Would love any opinions on this as I'm swaying towards not doing the course. Also, do we think its an issue if I have put that I will be commencing this LLM on my vac scheme apps and then don't actually do it?
