My Review Of The REACH And Accelerate Law Programmes

During June I spent two very different weeks at two very different universities,  University Of Strathclyde and the University Of Glasgow. I attended the accelerate law challenge at Strathclyde University and the REACH Law programme at Glasgow University.

Through these programmes I was able to experience  mock court trials, visit the sheriff court, participate in a practice LNAT test,  listen to lectures about what the university has to offer and hear about current and former students experiences at the universities and what career path they followed with their law degree whilst also taking part in many different work shops.

I enjoyed both programmes but I felt we worked a lot more independently at Strathclyde and formed a better connection with the current law students as they were our mentors for the week. Glasgow focused a lot more on the academic side of things and the requirements for applying to Glasgow University in the future. At the end of both weeks I had made great friends, explored more of the universities and the surrounding area of Glasgow and I also further cemented my interest in pursuing a Law degree.  I would really recommend applying to both programmes as they benefit you in many ways.
