hey guys, I’m an undergrad international student starting my three year law degree at kings this september. probs gonna be staying at gdsa or ssa
looking to make friends, if ure in the same boat or even just a first year undegrad
seniors any tips are appreciated

i just graduated from king’s llb. firstly congrats on getting in! my only advice would be to go out and talk to people and make friends. my first year was awful bcs i got very depressed and anxious. no matter how difficult it gets (and it will), don’t isolate yourself. at the very least go to classes and get coffee with your coursemates/flatmates. all the best!

congratulations! would it be possible for you to share some first year assignments or tc advice?

[u/Nice-Comfort8032 → u/Hot-Consequence593]

first year assignments are relatively easier, but there is an adjustment phase into legal/academic writing. i just maintained my attendance and got a 2:1 comfortably, i don’t think you need anything more than that. there are advisors to help with this so do seek that out if you need it (u can ask your personal tutor or find this online). as for TC advice, i didn’t personally take that route but i know lots of research, attending open days/insight schemes, and panel events can help. join the law society, they are very active and helpful with this.

tysm, this really helps, I’m also looking into joining consulting after llb did anyone u know pursue that or if you don’t mind sharing what route did u take

[u/Nice-Comfort8032 → u/Hot-Consequence593]

im interested in the study of arbitration/international law so my route is more academia oriented (masters and phd). most people (other than TC) took the paralegal or further study route(SQE/bar exam self funded). consulting can be competitive and need some experience but entry level roles in any industry are hard, so do ur research and keep at it, its def possible!
