[QUOTE="jam1999, post: 31590, member: 5159"] I am starting the GDL in September and have offers from both University of Law (Moorgate Campus) and BPP (Waterloo campus). I chose these two GDl providers because of the excellent careers service / Pro Bono work and the fact the courses are taught by lawyers. I've also seen that both have connections to magic circle and big city corporate firms, with BPP potentially having the edge on that. The thing is - I am hoping to go into personal law, looking at either public law (actions by individuals against public bodies) or clinical / medical negligence. Firms I have been looking at therefore tend not to be magic circle - I am more focused on firms like Leigh Day, Irwin Mitchell, Kingsley Napley, Russell-Cooke and so on. I was wondering if anyone who is more interested in law related to human rights did the GDL at either of these providers and can give me any feedback. I want to go to the best uni possible but also am wary that the teaching may be entirely focused on gaining commercial awareness and preparing for the corporate world... any help/info would be welcomed!!
