Hello all,
Semi regular poster/lurker here. Have name changed incase this is potentially outing for DD.
She is currently on a gap year living it large, earning some money to travel and getting some hefty work experience under her belt.
She has an unconditional offer for one of the old colleges at Oxford for Classics. She has always maintained that she wants to go into the Law after graduating, and I have advised her to go down the GDL route.
But this year off and seeing more of the legal world, she is really gutted that she hasn't applied for Law. She really loves the subject and regrets not applying for it. She's also not wanting to have the financial burden of a 4 year classics degree and then possibly the GDL to fund on top.
I'm not sure what to advise her to do. Naturally the cynicism in some will think that she's just trying to get in the "easy" way. Is there any way that she could be re-interviewed/ considered for studying Law without taking another gap year and re-applying?
