there is no fall... jesus christ..its a top 10 school one of the top universities in the UK!!!
It is a great school!!!! It was my first choice and no hesitation!!!
It is nš6 in terms of Uni and 7 as a department of law, so you can't go wrong with Durham!!! on the contrary!!!

Hey, i think i will still wait for the letter from Durham uni. Even if there is a fall of ranking for LLM law, but still i found it an excellent university. Also i prefer the environment which Durham uni provides to her students.

Dear Vermillion,
Are you sure the ranking is for the LLM? As far as I am aware the only rankings that exist are rankings for undergraduate degrees-one published by The Guardian and one published by The Times.

Can you provide a link to this LLM rankings list?

I should also emphasise to be careful with ranking lists, The Times and Guardian sharply differ as to which law school is where in the rankings.

For any LLM choice the most important issues I would argue are the range of courses, the quality and reputation of the professors and the leads given by the programme into private practice.
