Cardiff-Manchester-Leeds?


Hello,

I had applied in the 3 colleges for LLM...and have received offer letters from all of them i.e. Cardiff, Manchester University and Leeds. I really am not able to make up my mind which one i should pick as in which is a better university in terms of future job prospects and teaching faculty/department. I think all of these universities are at the same pedestal, but if anyone could help me decide which is better.

My best friend is going to Cardiff for Marketing course so i feel somewhat inclined to join Cardiff but on the other hand i want to secure my future job prospects too once i earn the degree.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Hi anushree,
i hv offers frm Durham, Manchester, Birminghum,Cardiff uni. for Int. Business & Commercial laws but i hv decided for Manchester after consulting my frnds who hv done their llm frm Manchester last yr.
Manchester is a gud brand at any gvn time n city is also big n full of resources , whereas Cardiff (wales) is a small city . Cardiff is gud for MBA n offers gud modules for llm but overall i think its Manchester.
ALL d Best.

Thanking you in anticipation.

Guys sorry to break the bubble of all those vouching for how good Manchester Uni is (also known as Uniof ) but it is nothing as all of you seem to know of it above .
I got a chev scholarship and made the mistake of choosing Manchester Uni over the london ones being expensive and also because i had some relatives there and due to the costs of living which till date i regret . It is indeed embarrasing but i have to admit that i am appalled at the way LLM is conducted in this uni and for me it broke all my expectations at what education in the UK would be like . I have a million reasons not to recommend University of Manchester for LLM ( and only a few to do ) . Althought the rankings of the university have gone down in the past few years ( the rankings only represent the undergrad law school ranking btw) it is far better than what it should actually be . Most of the professors are either retired barristers out of touch with the current happenings in the legal sphere or Phd students who are usually doing it to get grants and are usually not much older (knowledgeable) than you are being stumped at usual interventions . Most of the studies are expected to take place before or after coming to class and the only thing done by professors is enlighten on topics given out of pre printed module sheets . The exams again are not fair as each question carries 33 marks and you are expected to understand and attempt all your semesters learnings at the risky attempt of 3 out of 4 questions which in my view can never justify a students ability . There have been instances where 98% students in a particular class have failed . Classes are usually 2-3 hours a day a maximum of 3 times a week leaving a lot of time for you to wonder . The Class would mostly be filled by South Asian (read India Pak SL Bangladesh) or South East Asian (Chinese Malaysian Korean ) students and a below 10% of east european students and only maybe 2%-3% of British students missing the whole point of getting an international experience as most of the British students take up LPC or training contracts after their LLB's . Finding Jobs are a big no no with a Manchester Uni LLM . Anyways looks like I can go on forever here so if you have any further questions please email me or message me here and i shall be very glad to help you out . Cheers.
