A good LLM programme in the UK would not take someone with a third, unless you have other experience to offset your bad grades.

thanks for your kind reply,
how long should the experience be, in order to get into a good llm program?
i have just missed out on a 2:2 by a single aggregate mark, and have had no retakes throughout my 3 year llb study.

try Aberdeen and Edinburgh... they are good and comparatively not very difficult to get in.... Nottingham is good too...
