Road to UK

Okay! Today, I am going to talk to you about How to Study in UK?

   Firstly, you have to take a foundation, A-level or IB programme, of course, and make sure you score!

   Then, apply for ucas which opens on 15th October & closes on 15th January.
But, you can apply after the deadline, which is before... May if I'm not mistaken but the chances of securing a place would be a tad lower.

No worries!😉 I applied late, but got a place at my parents' ex-university, Lancaster University which is currently ranked top 10 in UK nonetheless.☺️

I'd suggest...instead of checking the top universities in UK ranking, it's better to survey the best law schools in UK ranking or the list of universities scholarship providers will sponsor.

   You have to pay to apply for ucas.
So, if you're pursuing your foundation in law, like I did, make sure that the university you're applying accepts such qualifications for their entry requirements. Or not it would be a waste of money because they won't even consider foundation & reject your application right away.

*Tests*
1 Some universities would require you to take the Law National Admissions Test (LNAT) as an entry requirement.

Click on the names of the universities to go to their websites and find out more about the admissions policy for each institution:

• University of Birmingham.
• University of Bristol.
• Durham University.
• University of Glasgow.
• King's College London.
• University of Nottingham.
• University of Oxford.
• University College London

For this, you have to take it at your home country. It cost me £70. I just took it a couple of days ago. The level of English was quite high. You have to:
#study up the ielts, lsat & gre vocab list
#read news often especially The Guardian, The Economist, NY Times, to name a few.

Mind you❗️There are two sections which are Comprehension-MCQs where 94minutes is allocated & 40 minutes for essay. All the tests are done in the computer, so I hope you are a fast typer. 😉

Even if you finished your MCQs early, it's best to sit back, relax & recheck your answers, for no time from the 94 minutes will be added to your 40minute essay even if you finished early.

For essays, read argumentative essays & be aware of current issues.

There is no pass or fail. Your chosen university will look at your marks & decide whether it is up to par to their standards or not.

2 Then, there's IELTS
It will cost me RM1,105.

It's an English test. Kinda like muet which will asess all your listening, speaking, reading & writing skills.
You are supposed to take IELTS UKVI in order to qualify for UK student visa by the way.

I haven't taken this yet, but based on my online erudition, I bet it's easier than LNAT.
So, if you have passed LNAT, I bet you could pass IELTS as well.

This also depends on the university's requirement btw😉

Good luck！

Cheers,
Alya.
