Today my dad and I had a talk about what I should study next year and I think I wanna take ICPU from Taylor's. After that, I intend to study law in Taylor's with its 1+2 programme with the Uni. of Reading. Because the intake dates of the law programme are only January and September, my dad advised me to take the first intake of ICPU so I can straight away take the January intake of the law programme the year after. My initial plan was to take the second intake of ICPU but my dad tells me that I would be wasting 6months waiting for the next intake of the law programme. I have two questions:

(1) Is ICPU a good choice for me to study law? I know A levels is better but I'm really not interested.
(2) Will I make it in time to take the January intake of the law programme if I take the January intake of ICPU?

Thanks!
