Ciao Fri, 03 Jun 2005 17:37:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/5716/last#5980 This is a bit off the discussion but this post is for Sabina, the atty from sweden. I was wondering about your thoughts on the Univ of stockholm LLM program since you're Swedish. Is it worth it? Can you do anything over there with the degree? Is it a respected degree in Scandinavia?

Wed, 15 Jun 2005 19:00:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/5716/last#6231 Hi Orion, I might be enrolling at Cambridge. Planning to specialise in International Law. However, I may lean towards Oxford because of the tutorial system or NYU if my funding application is successful. What about you? Wed, 15 Jun 2005 19:55:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/5716/last#6232 strangely, I am in a more or less identical situation - deciding between oxford/cambridge/nyu for intl. law, nyu is too expensive (have turned them down), i like the tutorial system at oxford but think it will be cambridge in the end. Fri, 17 Jun 2005 01:15:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/5716/last#6256 Nice to meet someone else with the same choices. I know that this is a much debated topic...Are you choosing Cambridge because of its better reputation in International Law? Do you think that this factor outweighs the tutorial system and apparently more rigorous programme at Oxford? Perhaps we will meet if we choose the same programme. =) Fri, 17 Jun 2005 13:41:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/5716/last#6270 Hi Age:30 Applied to: Ox, Cam, LSE Accepted: OX,Cam LSE Going to: Ox or Cam Not decided yet, waiting for college accaptance at Cam. I am more interested in international law in which Cam is said to be better. It also seems that corporate law is stronger at Cam and corporate law would be also a choice of mine. Hi Luigi and UTFriar, Why did you choose Oxford over Cambridge? Tutorial system or reputation or both? What subjects will you choose? Fri, 17 Jun 2005 15:38:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/5716/last#6273 Hi Gergory I have to admit that the main reason I chose Oxford over Cambridge is the town. I know both places from summer school and i definitely prefer Oxford. The other reason was that I got a substantial scholarship from the Clarendon fund in Oxford. So there was not so much of a choice after all. Fri, 17 Jun 2005 17:32:00 +0200 http://www.llm-guide.com/board/5716/last#6275 Hi Luigi What subjects will you take at Oxford? If I go there, I will probably take dispute settlement, European business regulation, intl economic law and sg else.
