http://www.llm-guide.com/board/45080 en UCL, Kings College, Queen Mary - LLM GUIDE Discussion Board Tue, 08 Apr 2008 13:29:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/45080/last#45080 Hello, I have to come to a tough decision: i have applied for the LLM at UCL, King's College, Queen Mary and at London Metropolitan. Obviously London Metropolitan is my last choice. But now London Metropolitan has offered me a place and i have to accept that place within the next few days. And of course i will not accept that place, if i knew how good my chances are to get accepet at UCL, King's or Queen Mary!!! For that reason, I don't know wheter i sould accept the place at London metropolitan or not!! Has anybody already got accepted at one of these universities?? which grades are required??? especially what are the requirements for the Erstes Staatesexamen (German First State Examination) ?? Can anybody help me?? Would be very cool :-) Tue, 08 Apr 2008 16:52:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/45080/last#45094 I have a offer at UCL. As far as I know from the UCL's admissions, you can accept an offer and decline it later on. Only when you accept firmly, this would not be possible anymore. As it sounded this seems to be standard, but I don't know about London Metropolitan. May be worth enquiring at Metropolitan's admissions office. As to grades I cannot really help, since I got a Swiss degree (a good one, but not a spectacular one). Tue, 08 Apr 2008 23:04:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/45080/last#45121 Hi What do you mean by "accept firmly"? Wed, 09 Apr 2008 11:19:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/45080/last#45151 Hi What do you mean by "accept firmly"? Well, the concept is rather new to me as well, but according to UCL's admission you can accept an offer and decline it later on till you have "firmly" accepted the offer (at least with UCL). I haven't had to "firmly" accept UCL's offer so far, though. So I'm a bit confused as well and unfortunately cannot provide a lot of help to what "accept firmly" means exactly.

Don't know for certain, but I heard QMUL accepts lower grades. No clue about UCL yet. Good luck!!! Where you from?

Thank you very much. I studied in Würzburg but I am originally from Düsseldorf! I got an offer from King's now as well... luckily :) Fri, 11 Apr 2008 16:14:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/45080/last#45374 Congratulations! So are accepting the offer from King's or will you be waiting for UCL? I'm still not certain about which one is better...

I'm still not certain about which one is better... Well of course UCL is better than Kings anytime. You can even see the rankings but they only matter to a certain extent. But from what I have heard UCL is better than KCL.
