QUOTE(yanniieee @ Oct 12 2008, 12:55 AM) if after graduate cant be a lawyer then what can they do? hah, A-level will be same like form6.. no easy way to take law like what MMU offered?  if u cant even handle form 6 or A levels, dont even try taking law. ur taking-the-easy-way-out attitude is not for studying law. form 6 and a levels is just a measurement. if u fail form 6 and a levels, you will fail law. if u pass form 6 and a levels, i might stand a chance in law.

QUOTE(Xziled @ Oct 13 2008, 02:04 AM) U want cheap or expensive 1? xD expensive = Taylors, HELP all those lor cheap = BAC,ATC, TARC these r for A'lvls ler After u pass A'lvls and if u r taking Law also same ler..depends on ur budget or preferences. Either the factors of price, location and also whichever place that offers the subjects u want or maybe the lecturers good or not. Since i went to BAC for A'lvls till my degree now..i would suggest BAC lor lol  It's cheap, good location and established  In my year of A'lvls the lecturers were good but back then there weren't a lot of subjects to choose from but now they have expand and offer more subjects lor..as for LLB, the lecturers in my years were good as well and i am referring to the UOL external programme since u can do it here all 3 yrs locally though u have an option to do it over in UK also lor..coz there r different lecturers for different courses as well. And what i heard of UWE, the lecturers sux xD so of course i recommend UOL external  my year's criminal law and constitutional law lecturer is better than the UOL lecturers. feedbacks from my UOL mates. haha
