Hmm, if u want to be exempted from CLP then go for local uni's ie.UiTM, UM etc,..
other courses ie. Bachelor of Jurisprudence could be a choice but if i'm not mistaken, u can't practise with BOJ kua o_O

ur final results meaning part 2 also i would assume? hmm, can try taking up the arbitrator course? or become legal advisor in companies lor
there r no other ways unless u repeat ur degree or opt for BAR after that..unless u appeal and they accept ur appeal

hehe..i am not very sure about CLP...

where can i get the latest updates of UK universities that are recognized by CLP??? cuz the one i found is updated in 2001 =="

clp is a course, recognition is by the lpqb. check the bar webbie, shud be the latest even tho it seems old. if you still doubt the list, or your particular uni is not on it, just email them to clarify

in order to do clp
does ur LLb grades need to meet a specific requirement?

wow im impressed with yur way of writing and answering each n every question
ure seriously still a student??!
whr did u do yur LLB?
i juz finished my a levels..now im intending to pursue a law degree but not sure whr to go yet..
yur advise wud be great help to me

If you are taking the UoL External LLB programme, you will need to secure a minimum second lower honours in order to qualify for the CLP examinations.

If you are currently enrolled in one of the numerous twinning/transfer LLB programmes (2+1 / 1+2) available though, I don't think this ruling applies.

Anyone here who can confirm this? Thanks

could anyone tell me the basic requirement to ensure a place in university of liverpool on the final year through HELP law degree twinning programme?

there are a whole list of questions you need to answer before you can determine where is the best place for you to read law...

(in no particular order)
1) Whether you intend to read law locally or overseas? if the latter then where?
2) Whether you are able to afford to go overseas? If so, for how many years? 1 or 2 or 3 or 4....
3) Do you want to practice eventually?
4) Do you want to be an academic?
5) Does uni ranking/prestige matter to you?
6) Do you intend to remain in Malaysia or like for some ppl. pursue a foreign degree in order to facilitate migration?
7) Do you think you can tackle a pure exam based LLB and do well?

...you get the idea...

Having your A level results will help you determine your options...


well, i think your lecturers or guidance counsellor at HELP would be the best ppl to answer that...

@minshuen:

University of Liverpool: 2+1: Pass all subjects in Year 2 at HELP in one sitting with an average mark of 60%.

Do try an extra bit of Googling though, all the information is available on this page here

wah,great!!!thank you vry much,khiahsu!it was really helpful! erm...is it hard to gt an average mark more than 60%?

why dont 1+2?

For UK transfer, a pass is only required for CLP. I'm sure abt UWE but not really sure abt others..but it may be around that mark i guess. xD

based on what i've heard, nope not really...especially compared to UOL LLB...just put in the effort even a 70% average would be achievable


haha, the extra tens of thousands in expenses may be a reason...

My 2-cents to M'sians who want to be lawyers. This is roughly the route:

SPM -

STPM/ A-Levels -

LLB - Local University (4 years) - 9 months chambering - Called to the Malaysian Bar.

or

LLB - UK/Aus/NZ/ External UOL (3 years - although I have heard that it is usual to do a double degree in Australia to accompany the LLB) - CLP or Bar Vocational Course (Soon to be Bar Professional Training Course) (Called to the Bar of England and Wales) - 9 months chambering - Called to the Malaysian Bar.


or

LLB - 1+2 or 2+1 Twinning Programs - CLP or Called to the English Bar - 9 months chambering - Called to the Malaysian Bar.

Extra Notes:
1. Requirement for UOL external LLB is 2:2 to sit for the CLP while its 3:1 for the rest of the overseas degrees (I have heard that a pass may suffice but for now, some UK internal students have informed me that it's a 3:1).
2. Requirement for acceptance into the BVC/BPTC is 2:2. There is an online procedure for applying for a place and in this time and date, it has become very difficult to even secure a place, let alone sit for the course.
3. Difficulty of obtaining a LLB differs from place to place. For obvious reasons, some are easier than others. I will not be listing them lest I may sound unpatriotic or bias towards certain arrangements.
4. CLP - ~20% passing rate.
5. BVC/BPTC - ~40-60% depending on students' ability for the academic year.

1+2 is a good idea.however,it is too expensive and might not be affordable by my family.

All three terms are adopted.

The same applies elsewhere.

Added on August 27, 2009, 11:48 amI reserve my comment on the CLP issue but do find out on other variables that materially contributed to the passing rate.

Added on August 27, 2009, 11:52 amLook at Part II, paragraph 16 of the New Guidelines on Qualifications and requirements to qualify to sit for the Malaysian Certifiate in Legal Practice (CLP) Examination (For Law degrees from the United Kingdom).

Durham's Law degree is recognised for purposes of sitting for the CLP. However, as a matter of prudence, make sure that you refer to the Qualifying Board and not put any reliance on the guidelines alone.
