LLM

So I'm thinking of applying for postgraduate study next year. I Britain law is an undergraduate degree and postgraduate work will not advance your career prospects unless you want to go into academia.

My reason for wanting to do a Masters in Law (LLM) is purely to avoid working. I have absolutely no career plans or hope for future employment. I'm not particularly good at law, although I'm very passionate about it. The only thing I ever did well in life was when I studied theology, but the boat has sailed on that option.

As usual I'm going for the bottom and mainly applying to universities with
little prestige, i.e. the former polytechnics. I will, however, apply to a couple of good universities, hoping that they somehow might make a mistake and admit me. That strategy worked for getting into Southampton.

The places on my list right now are Southampton Solent University, University of Portsmouth, East London University and the London School of Economics. It really depends, however, on if and where the Church is going to ask my wife to work.
