well, generally speaking, for me, in the uk, it's

1) Oxbridge
2) the others which are considered "top" unis like imperial, Ucl, Kings, edinburgh
3) the 2nd tier unis
4) the 3rd tier unis
if u are considering twinning under a 2+1... 1) and 2) are out. based on thes 2008, no twinning uni (2+1) is in the top 100 rankings so it is based on what they consider as low ranking unis. I know in singapore we consider low ranking unis based on comparisons with ntu and nus. but anyway, since u are talking about uk employees (-ers?), guardian would be a better reference. I think for the bvc, there is some sort of preference for the unis own students, im not sure about this, u probably shud check with someone who is more knowledgeable on it....

You going to twinning program? I thought u already in 2nd external program?

Well as per my conversation with the councilor, she said the application was submitted on Sept 08 and awaiting confirmation.
Perhaps it would take ages, or perhaps it can be known this year itself, nobody knows.

I am with Penang ATC right now. I have heard many stories about people failing the CLP exams, some up to 7 times.  
I personally have a friend who have failed 3 times, and he is a bright student. I feel it is bias as those from gov unis are exempted from it.

I have found that apart from gov unis, NUS is exempted from CLP as well. Can anyone confirm this?

Why exampt local graduates from CLP?
NUS exempted from CLP 1
NUS exempted from CLP 2

I get that from BAC pathway chart. After the UOL external straight to CLP, never point to BVC also. After UK transfer degree then it point to BVC.

I am in Yr 1 LLB. Just started in Jan 09. So starting over in MMU is no problem for me 

i am doing a 2+1, currently in my year2.

i wana ask whether choosing an U in my final year is it decisive for employment in future?

in other words is reputation of an U that important for an employer to look at??

finally i decide to apply bank loan...but i totally dunno the information about bank loan..any 1 can tell tell me pls...is it every bank oso can loan 1?

Dont worry , 2subjects is fine . But, you have to make sure you really concentrate on it .
Of course , you need to make sure you get a good lecturer as well .
Or else , concentrating may not works .

I want to take another subject, english literature or business studies?

yeah sure, a levels would be a good idea. it's really up to you to weigh your options, if you dun want to practice, a pre u prog will indeed do u no harm except cost u a few ks and time...

...and yes reading law is fun. exams....not so much! there are quite a number of people i personally know who have done the llb as a secondary degree, it is a good programme to stir the mind and develop analytical skills. Your inquisitive persona will definitely appreciate such a course, but it is important that u head to the right college. But i do hope you like to read, because u do need to read quite a bit if u intend to do well. Occasionally u'll encounter a very dry topic, i do think there are quite a number of topics among the subjects that are so. Some ppl however find the transition hard if they're first qualification is very technical. But with due diligence, it shouldn't be a problem...

hi.
i know my question might be overlapping but there're too many pages and i'm lazy to read all to get the exact answer i need.

i wanted to do law course in a local university maybe UM or UKM after stpm . so what subjects should i take for stpm? art stream or science stream? is history compulsory?

thanks.

hi, sorry to burden you by asking you some questions, i didnt study anything about law during my pre-u studies, forgive me by being ignorant. I would like to ask you a few questions, firstly, what do you all mean by 'attachment wif law firm during 1st year/2nd year? how to do that? is it the attachment you mean is actually kinda internship? secondly, i'm currently doin uk degree programme transfer, 2+1, which University is good, in your opinions? i'd some research on the web and oso trhu forums, i found out that king's college, cardiff, uwe, warwick are among the tops. i know i've better chance to enter cardiff or uwe via this programme as they are partner U of brickfields, but is it possible for me to apply for Uni like cambridge/oxford provided that i do very well in my 1st n 2nd year in malaysia? apart of that, my uncle in london told me that there are a lot of summer schools teaching about law in uk, if i enroll to one summer school and do about 5 months of internship in law firms in malaysia b4 i transfer to UK, will i hv a higher chance to go into those good Uni easier?

sorry if i've caused u any trouble. i'll really appreaciate if you can help me, thanks.

Yes, they get exempted already.....

hmmm, how come they could?

   

anyway, how is the working life of a lawyer in general?

like during chambering, and then as a legal assistant for first few years up until u're made a partner?

9 - 6pm weekdays or what?

i am from sarawak and when i had been told that pursue law degree in australia + 6 months practical legal training there,i do not need to take CLP if i wish i practice in sarawak.Am i right?i am quite confused with all the statement above..

i got confirmation from lawyer in sarawak.In east malaysia,the legal profession is much more flexible than west malaysia.Barrister from scotland and northern ireland,canada and other commonwealth countries are recognized and exempted from taking clp.

Is law degree from mmu exmpted from CLP?

Do i still have a chance to further my study in Law if my MUET is only Band 3?
