Ranking of Buckingham University UK

I am going to university to study law in the UK this year, so I can more or less tell you about the law school thing. I have looked up the Good University Guide 2007 for you, Buckingham University is not within the top 85 institutions in terms of law schools in the UK.

Moreover, they offer only a 2-year undergraduate course, which will definitely not be recognized in HK.

If your results are average, you normally can apply for better university than this one even for law. By the way, are you referring to HKAL results? If yes, for example you got 3Cs in AL which is not good enough for good law schools in HK, such results can definitely get you to top 30 - 40 law schools in UK or may be 20 (depending what your 'average' means).

Here is the latest league table of law schools in UK. (top 30 - 40)
30 Keele 5* A 337 74 85.1
31 Surrey 5 C 365 85 84.6
32 Liverpool 4 B 416 77 84.5

49 Napier 3a D 330 65 71.6
50 Liverpool John Moores 3b C 278 70 71.3

To get into a better law school, you may have to study a foundation course.
As I really do not know much about your situation, I hope the advice helps but feel free to send me message to ask me more.

I really don't know if this university accepts everyone who applies to it, but personally I don't suggest you to apply if this is the case. From what I know, some universities do do this.

All in all, this university you mentioned is no where to be found in the league table, so my advice is if you got average results then try some othe universities. As I said, send me message for more info.
