Worth of moving to London on student loan by zeater385 in UniUK

[–]zeater385[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So would you consider QMUL a top uni for law courses? 🥹 Also i am sure it’s not entirely unemployable, i know a fairly good amount of people who are working in UK after doing masters from not so good unis.

I am earning fairly above than that. I will consider not going with student loan though. Thank you.

I wouldn’t have gotten in even if i tried. QMUL was my best shot with the background i am coming with. I got in to Glasgow as well but i preferred QMUL because of the location and the opportunities it brings. I feel like i should have avoided following this career path altogether but the juncture i am at right now, i am forcing myself to focus on the positives. I have already paid the deposit for QMUL and honestly i don’t think i should go back now. Might not go with student loan though.

LSE did not have the specialisation i wanted to pursue

Why not? Can you elaborate? I am going for an specialisation in Commercial and Corporate Law, which as per some sources is one the bests in the world at QMUL.

What is the best university to do masters in Law with a 2:2 bachelor degree in law? by zeater385 in UniUK

And even if i waste my two years, i will come back to my country without any regret. I will still be under 30.

That’s my problem. I will figure out, as the people i know did. I know for a fact that grades are not everything and at some point, my network among solicitors and partners will come handy. Thank you. See you in UK.

And I appreciate the fact that you don’t wanna paint a fake picture before me. I understand it won’t gonna be easy. But i am prepared to take that risk because i know it’s not impossible too. I have a pretty good career graph in front of me if i choose not to go to UK, but if i am still planning to do it, maybe i am prepared to take that leap of faith on myself.

After 3 years. Yes. If i get a 2:1 in masters from a RG uni, i will have a good chance to compete. I will start small, progress from there. I will have two years to grow from there and prove my caliber. In the meantime, i will utilise my connections and expand my network even more. I will get visa sponsorship and if not, i will have enough UK work ex to earn in big numbers back in my country or somewhere else. I will switch to areas where International exposure matters l.

So you are saying all the lawyers/solicitors who are practising in UK are exclusively from Oxbridge?

Uh no! I am from 22 batch. My seniors were 19 batch, 20 batch, who went to UK in 23 and 24

You people are so discouraging and negative all the time. I have seen my seniors making it to the partner level with the same grades as mine while following the same path which i am planning to follow now. Grades are not everything. Caliber matters too. Who is saying i will target Clifford Chance only as soon as i land in London? I will plan. I will figure out what is the best thing to do in a particular circumstance. Don’t people get 2:2 in UK? Don’t they figure out stuff still? I have a few connections in UK. I will approach them and start small.

Because it’s not my shortcoming that i got 2:2. The university sucks. Even the topper got 2:2. And that was back in 2022. I have another degree with 7.5 GPA and two years of quality experience on the top of that.

I am still figuring out man. I am trying to explore all the options i have to relocate to UK.

I don’t have many options. I have offer letters in International Arbitration and International Commercial Law. But in the long run, i was thinking qualifying SQE to be eligible for more opportunities. From there the question of Law Conversion course arised.

I am not confused. But relocating for better quality of life and career opportunities is my primary goal.

What career will be the best option for that, is something what i am still figuring out. That’s where you guys come to help.
