I have received an offer from LSE as well as Oxford. I want to pursue a Masters degree in corporate commercial laws. Which University would be better and for what reasons? Could somebody kindly advise.

I would like to extend your question: LSE, Oxford or Cam?

I am in the same position, have offers from Ox and LSE, and am still waiting for Cambridge. I am leaning towards Oxford - I think whichever options you pick at Oxford, you can guarantee that you will be pushed further academically on the BCL (is it the BCL or MJur you have an offer for?) One of my tutors (who did the BCL and taught for a while at Cambridge) said that, in her opinion, as students on the BCL all come from common law systems, they can expect more from you by way of background knowledge, so that the teaching is more focussed than would otherwise be the case. Am not so sure when it comes to MJur students - but I would probably still say Oxford, although the (very appealing) advantage to doing the LSE course is that you may actually have time over the year to lead a somewhat normal life!

Would you prefer Oxford towards Cam?

Would you prefer Oxford towards Cam?
Have just received an email saying I have an offer from Cambridge, but it doesn't give the details of the offer. Once I know, I'll be in a better position to say, but yes, I suppose Oxford is still marginally the fav at this moment for the reasons I gave- esp. being open only to students from common law systems. tbh though, I'd be happy to attend any one of the three - they're all great Universities.
