LAW

Why Study Law?

The study of Law spans the Social Sciences and Humanities and gives students an opportunity to apply intellectual understanding to practical, real life experiences. Our course covers a number of undergraduate topics and it is designed to give students an introduction to the study of Law.

Not everyone who studies Law necessarily become a lawyer, as the degree builds critical skills such as practical problem solving and abstract thinking, and our course also develops these skills. Using real life case studies as examples, students will explore the complexities of the legal system and how the Law is the language by which our relationships, rights, interactions and obligations are defined.

Application Guidance

Our Law course is perfect for students interested in making an application to study a top university. As well as covering core undergraduate content, we help students understand the application process and learn what they can do now in order to be prepared. In 2019-20, students who worked with Oxford Tutors to apply to study Law were 3.5 times more likely to receive an offer from Oxford and Cambridge than the average applicant.

Oxford and Cambridge Tutors have years of experience in working with students applying to study Law and Jurisprudence in the UK. Our team comprises exclusively academics from the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge with first-hand experience of what it takes to apply successfully. As well as our expert Subject Tutors, we also have a Personal Statements and UCAS Expert on our team, who will run a workshop with students to give insider guidance on how best to approach an application.

We cover all aspects of the application process in detail, through a range of interactive seminars and discussions. We consider the pre-application preparation required, from writing a Personal Statement to making the right choice when it comes to colleges and universities. Students will also spend time learning about the post application process, including the LNAT and Oxbridge interviews.

Add-ons

Included in our course fees are a range of sessions designed to help students prepare for their application to study Law at a top UK University. The entire admissions process is covered, from writing Personal Statements to strategies for approaching Admissions Tests and preparing for interviews.

Students who are applying this year may opt for additional personalised specialist support. These optional extras would begin during the Summer School, and continue afterwards, to help students prepare for their upcoming application.

Personal Statement Consultation

The Personal Statement is a key part of any university application and the student’s opportunity to demonstrate passion for their subject. We understand a Personal Statement is a long-term project and we have designed a 2-hour package which guides and supports students through the writing process.

During the Summer School, students will have an initial 1-hour consultation with a Subject Specialist to set out a plan on how to develop and strengthen their Personal Statement over the coming months. 

After the Summer School, students will meet with our Personal Statements Expert before the UCAS deadline, once they have had a chance to work on their Statement. In another 1-hour consultation, our expert will work to improve the tone, flow and make any final suggestions before submission. 

Admissions Tests

We have designed and produced an LNAT paper, and students may purchase a test package alongside the Summer School at a reduced rate. The test paper exactly replicates the style of the original paper, and the package comes complete with a mark scheme, full solutions and a question-by-question video walk-through. These tests cannot be found elsewhere online and are entirely unique, therefore fully replicating the Admissions Test experience for the student.

Mock Interviews

Students can also add a Mock Interview to their Summer School course. Interviews are one of the most important parts of an application and for students making an application this year, a baseline interview in the summer is an excellent way to prepare. A baseline interview allows students to work on their development points throughout the autumn and perhaps undertake additional Mock Interviews closer to the time to hone their skills.

Our Mock Interviews are conducted by our specialist tutors with Oxford and Cambridge interview experience. They last 45 minutes: 30 minutes for the interview, followed by 15 minutes of verbal feedback, discussing how the interview went and points for improvement. Students will also receive a detailed written report, which explains the content of the interview, assesses the student’s critical thinking and analytic skills, gives notes on their interview style and explains how they can improve next time.
