    Hi
    I am currently in 6th year and I'm thinking about studying law at DCU.
    Up until Higher Options last Septemer I was thinking about BCL (Law & Society) but then a person that was there advised me to do Economics, Politics and Law as I am not really interested in doing Criminal Law. More like Propety law or Naturalisation status.
    What would you advise me to do?
    Is the course itself difficult?
    How can I figure out if that's what suit my personality?
    and finally
    English is not my first language but it's good enough to do a honours in english. Will I have many problems with that?

    If you're really interested in doing law go for the BCL.
    As far as I can tell the EPL people don't do that much law. I'm in first year BCL and there are 3rd year EPLs in our 1st year torts lecture, for example. Only go for the EPL if you really have an interest in economics and politics (history).
    And the English thing shouldn't be a problem if you can do honours! Lots of reading and writing to do though.

    From what I've read in the prospectus for the first 2 years there is a bit of all of them but then in the final year I can study law only.

    Hi,

    I'm doing my undergrad degree in IR at DCU. I'm interested in moving onto a postgrad in the LLM in Law at DCU after it. I'm not too sure if I can, because IR only contains three law modules. Are these components enough to get me considered?
