Hi, can anyone tell me what the average age of entering LLM students in the various london schools are? ARe there many students in their late 20's/early 30's, or is it mostly younger students than that? THanks!

Me entering in my late 22.
My brother in 27.
A friend of mine graduated from the UCL in 21.
My colleague graduated from the out-of-London-located Centre for Energy, Petroleum and Mineral Law and Policy in 37. ~~!
So whatever age you have, go for LLM

There have been some useful discussions about the age issue in this board. Did you already search the board for the keywords "age"? The average age in London will be around 25, but there are also students in their late 20's and in their 30's, especially from countries like the Germany and the US where the legal education takes longer than in other parts of the world.

Hi everyone,
I wouldn't be too much concerned about the age, as I think, as somebody said, each country has its own educational system. I graduated in law in italy at 25 (average age), but after that i preferred attorneying at law for two years and half, getting admission to italian bar, doing some postgraduate studies, other work experiences... and now maybe at 30 i got my time for an LLM.
As far as i'm concerned i heard about quite a lot of people in Italy doing that in their 30s.
bye for now

Agree with that. I think before entering graduate programme anywhere in the world one must have prof.experience. So the normal and recommended age would be 25-30 (graduation + work).
it is funny! In our country Everybody tend to get as many diplomas as possible, sometimes parents send their children to graduate programmes, meanwhile these students do not have profession experience, they do not know what they want to study and where/in which area to work =) it often seems ridiculous
