The Times Publishes 2009 UK Law School Rankings

the best guide for law students all over the world.....

I do not consider the rankings a true reflection of the competence and status of the faculties of law, at best, they are mere 'predictictions' or 'projections' amd nothing more. To me I find it absolutely absursd that suddenly KCL is ranked above UCL,....on what grounds or basis...and again, here comes University of Leicester from the blues....THUMBPS DOWN FOR TIMES...i'm so dissapointed in Times for this deliberate act of misrepresentations...THUMBS DOWN TO YOU GUYS!

I went to Leicester University first to do an LLB. The course structure was lame to the extreme, teaching total rubbish in your first year. Modules like "learning legal skills", "cirminal justice system", and "civil justice system" wanted to give a Poly style LLB, some cool sounding essence. Student and teacher quality was pretty poor and the course were deliberately made difficult by putting unnecessary contents to memorise in undergraduate years when you should ideally be exploring academic side of things. But they were adament to make it "look" professional. Fortunately I left before finishing my first year and went to LSE. LSE was a refreshing change of surroundings as well as intellectual climate. Leicester was full of binge drinking pathetic little wanna be law students shagging about and posing they were some sort of intellectual creme de la creme. And there you go Times screwed it again! For a senseless rank table like this one, I choose leicester over nottingham. Result, a year wasted, about 8K down the drain, and bitter experience of the club capital of UK! SO I'd suggest dont go for this rank table, this is a total sham...
