QUOTE(chiahau @ Oct 27 2013, 01:15 PM) No other option unless you want to take a Diploma in something and then proceed to law. But the CLP board might not allow you to take CLP without a proper Pre-U recognition. Best way, just take A-levels only. thanks for the advice bro

QUOTE(Park SoYeon @ Oct 29 2013, 05:33 PM) if can then direct law 1st year if cannot then i have take 2 subject a level ...law+business ..  hopefully can but for LLB i thought there is rule saying mature student can skip A level right? Mature student = 5 years working experience in related field wor.... No need A-level since you got degree. Depends on what program btw. If UoL, i think definitely no problem.

If you already have a degree, most probably you can go for Law degree straight away. Give LPQB (legal practice qualifying board) a call or visit their offices, they are very friendly, trust me. here is their website/contact: http://www.lpqb.org.my/index.php?option=co...id=143&Itemid=3just spend 3 minutes talking to the LPQB and you should be able to find out what your next moves should be.

Hihi, May I know anyone here did their UKT program under Brickfields Asia College before? My friend told me that if resit for paper then will only count in maximum 30% plus assignment (assume 15 marks) lead to 45% maximum? Wondering what's the overall 55% as entry requirement to Cardiff as well. Kindly advise. Thanks in advance

Are you sure Cardiff's entry requirement is 55%?

Okay, it was more stringent. In short, if you failed, your mark will only be capped at 40%. My entrance to Cardiff back then in the year of 2010, its requirement was 60% in average.

hello everyone just want to ask does any of you have any idea on how to work as a foreign lawyer in Singapore?It is due to the fact that I find the requirement of admission to the Singapore Bar is rather stringent on foreigners and would like to know more about any alternative of working on the legal field of Singapore.Thank you in advance for any reply.

Get admitted in Malaysia first and secure a job in Singapore is one option. But quite difficult to get a job as a foreign lawyer in Sg anyway as you will be restricted in terms of practice areas. Where did u do your LLB?
