    Best uni for studying Law?

    Yeah she got the LLM at Cambridge I like to think Justice McHugh is an example that the system works too - I don't think he ever got a law degree but made it to the top just through natural brilliance.

    Best uni for studying Law?

    I don't really understand anything you write?? Also as far as I know the Supreme Court has nothing whatsoever to do with the setting of university standards or accreditation programs? That sounds a bit far-fetched. I always thought it must be worked out by some sort of statutory committee. I...
