Research which educational institution suits your needs. To be approved to move on to the diploma in legal practice, required to practice law in England, you will need to attend an accredited course by the Law Society of England and Wales. Enroll in the undergraduate LLB program that you desire.
Attend lectures and tutorials. Taking detailed notes and carrying out the followup reading will help you understand the material much better and provide a deeper insight into the issues raised.
Read primary sources of law. Primary sources of law are statutory instruments, case reports and EC and EU directives. Read textbooks and journals to expand your knowledge of the primary law.
Attend mooting classes. Important for students wishing to become barristers, mooting is the art of legal argument. Every university has a mooting team, and annual championships are held between the law universities.
Study for exams by compiling your notes into condensed sections. Highlight legal principles and the authority that backs them up. Keep reading and rereading all your notes until you firmly understand them. Closer to the exam, reduce your notes to bullet lists to force yourself to remember the main points.
Decide if you want to study further to practice law, as either a solicitor or barrister. Apply for the diploma in legal practice and either an articling placement for barristers or a traineeship for solicitors. Articling and traineeships involve working for two years directly under the tutelage of either a barrister or solicitor. During this time, your work is assessed and you will also undertake at least 12 exams.
