I have conditional offers from LSE and Oxford (English language requirements) and unconditional from King's.

Which one do you think would be best appreciated in absolute terms?

What shall I go for??

Is there any doubt that Oxford is the best??

Thanks a lot

Oxford decisions are definitely out. Just received an unconditional offer of admissions to the doctoral program.

Without more, the phrase "appreciated in absolute terms" is probably best satisfied by looking at some form of ranking system. Based on that, most people will likely tell you to choose Oxford. (And congratulations no matter which you choose!)

But, if the votes cast on this internet forum will actually make your decision for you, I cast a write-in vote for the Julliard School of Dance, purely for comedic effect.

Once again it's a question of what u want from your LLM... If only the name of your school as a good point to CV then of course Oxford makes an impression on everyone.

But if, e.g. LSE offers you better courses in certain fileds of law in which you want to become specialist, then choosing law school only coz of it's name isn't the best idea. At the end of the day you may have an impression of wasting 1 year of time and money.

Although all of your possibilities are great!

Well, that's actually what I was speculating about...

Well...scr*w the law school, if this forum wants me to be a ballet freak, how could I dare to oppose my will against that of "the masses"???
