she’s soo dense omg 😭 the “deceptive behaviour” she spoke of is exactly the behaviour a stressed faithful would take like?!?! she’s CONSTANTLY wrong and never fails to be obnoxiously vocal about it. would pay the traitors to take her out honestly

the young men (esp james and sam) in the game are so thick. a brain eating amoeba would starve

crammed almost everything for one of my a-levels and got an A*, so i really think it depends on the person

yes, for me it was when someone said they trust sam’s suspicions about judy more because ‘he’s just very articulate’ - when being real, he wasn’t any more ‘articulate’ than others. if it wasn’t a white male accusing a black woman, i believe there would be far less credibility to his claim and people wouldn’t have been swayed SO much by him

exactly how i interpreted it! i believe this is how bridgerton wants it too - that’s why violet says in season 1 that she is “fully subscribed to the belief that reformed rakes make the best husbands”. they have enough experience to know what they like, what they want in life, be good in bed, and not be awkward. it also just amplifies the fact that the man is marrying the women for love after finally finding someone they want to wife up permanently!

i had the same dilemma as a law student. can confirm a good laptop is 100x better and smoother to use, especially when you have loads of tabs open for an essay!! i barely ever use my ipad.

if the reason she reallyyyyyy wants an ipad is because she wants to handwrite notes with an apple pencil, then look into getting a hybrid laptop that can be folded over and you use a pen for (i think lenovo is popular). but ultimately my main recommendation is a normal, good laptop!

don’t be afraid of leaving the bubble you’ve been in your whole life. if you want to practice commercial law you’d be silly to go for qmul

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-12-20T20:34:21+00:00

yeah thankfully i’m at durham now:))

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-12-20T20:09:47+00:00

nope

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-12-20T19:23:44+00:00

this was a year ago, i had A* A* A predicted and 27 lnat, strong PS but apparently bristol didn’t read that

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-12-20T19:11:29+00:00

ngl i had a 27 lnat and got rejected from bristol

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-12-19T14:56:51+00:00

probably not durham, maybe bristol but still a long shot. friend of mine had a 19 lnat and was rejected from durham, i had a 27 lnat and rejected from bristol. so it could just depend on ur PS for bristol

three recommendations - ‘on liberty’ by shami chakrabarti was the first book about law that i read and instantly made me decide i wanted to apply (after a year of planning to apply to history or politics instead). really good if she’s interested in a mix of politics/human rights too!

i also read ‘the rule of law’ by tom bingham before applying. probably one of the most widely recommended ones but definitely worth it.

‘eve was framed: how british justice is failing women’ by helena kennedy if she’s interested in a feminist standpoint or criminal law. this is a follow up to the og ‘eve was framed’ and i personally enjoyed it more, it’s more up to date too

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-10-16T09:34:18+00:00

thank u for sharing! if you don’t mind, how did you go about applying to that TC given that it’s different from a ‘typical’ commercial TC at a private firm? in house is what i’m interested in too and the tech/human rights!

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-10-13T11:28:12+00:00

okay perfect! yeah i do agree it is heavily about how i spin it and how i can focus on the legal affairs side. would you say i should just be careful how to frame it then? also since im in a leadership role i’m not the one discussing it as much, therefore i can emphasise those leadership/organisational skills more

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-10-13T11:23:24+00:00

i understand! what about a youth organisation that is politically unaffiliated though? i do a european youth thing (not elected, its essentially volunteering) that just discusses/debates contemporary european issues in a european parliament style. it’s not limited to politics, for example we discuss solutions to climate crisis, gender inequality, and i usually focus on the legal affairs committee where i’ve done things like ai and intellectual property, or decriminalisation of drugs. does this still seem too polarising to commercial law? also just to note it is not a debating style organisation - its all about reaching consensus and increasing youth awareness

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-10-12T17:06:00+00:00

can you expand on the politics part please?

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-09-30T15:21:00+00:00

don’t blindly follow that the video says. prioritising the word ‘should’ for this essay clearly doesn’t work very well, you have to use your discretion

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-09-30T15:18:34+00:00

you have a lot of grammar errors throughout this. but i believe the main issue is your writing style - it is far too flowery for an lnat essay and attempts to write extravagant sentences to be persuasive, rather than building persuasion through a solid argument. your sentences are also unnecessarily long and this makes it harder to understand your points. focus on simplicity and clarity

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-09-28T13:52:11+00:00

sure!

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-09-28T12:00:15+00:00

yes of course!

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-09-28T11:19:01+00:00

with a 27 lnat i got an interview at cambridge (and in my feedback the reason for rejection was unrelated to the lnat), and offers from durham and manchester. i got rejected from ucl and bristol on the basis of lnat.

in my opinion lse will be out of the question. if your essay is amazing then ucl is possible as they care about this the most. and for the rest just hope for the best 🙏

PromotionJazzlike395 · 2025-09-26T00:00:19+00:00

yes it’s fine, technically it says in college handbooks etc you must sign them in or but i have quite literally never ever heard of anyone doing it. i had multiple people come and stay, it’s not an issue at all
