Hello all

I have a 2:2 from Univ. of Sheffield in European, Comparative and International Law, roughly equivalent to say an 11 in the French system.

Part of my LLB was spent in Lund, and I would like to return to Europe.

I have completed the Legal Practice Course with a commendation (LPC), and am working in a London criminal law outfit.

I want to study an LLM in International Law (public/humanitarian-human rights). This will be once I am a qualified lawyer in the UK. I will have had two years' criminal experience, but obviously on a domestic level only.

Outside of paid work, I continue to work on a project with Interights, and with torture victims at the organisation the Medical Foundation in London. I began these roles while I was studying for the LPC and it will be difficult to expand much beyond these areas. I have considered informally writing articles around international law in my spare time to beef up my knowledge and be able to demonstrate interest at the point of application.

I am improving on my French by taking evening courses.

Will anybody here give me an informed opinion on the chance I stand of being accepted somewhere like ADH Geneva for the humanitarian law LLM or in Sorbonne, Lund etc with my

(a) middling LLB mark, and

(b) domestic professional experience (i.e. being a qualified criminal lawyer) as well as in smaller projects in rights based law?

Obliged, Omar
