In the US you have to do a bachelors degree (4 years) then do a test called the MCAT to gain admittance to med school (4-5 years or even longer depending on what you specialise in). Its must faster to do medicine in the UK

Well once you get into the school it gets very easy. You will need to contact their department for internationals and they can and will help you with everything. The main thing you will need is a student visa and as long as you have your letter of acceptance and enough money to finance the visa its pretty easy to do. Will you answer mine? http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AkeCiAsCRV8v.yKMV6F4LLZFKXRG;_ylv=3?qid=20091127185132AA9NU0d

Don't forget that a law degree in the USA is a graduate degree. You will need to first hold a bachelor's degree before you can apply to enter law school. Therefore, you would save yourself a huge bundle of money by doing your undergraduate studies at university in the UK before applying for law school at UCLA ( or any other law school in the USA). Next, make sure that you maintain a very high average grade throughout your undergraduate studies. Finally, you will need to take the LSAT before you are ready to apply to law school. Hope this helps.

differences in going to US / UK / Aust unis - law school

differences in going to US / UK / Aust unis - law school?
I understand that all are based on English common law. But I've also been told that being based in singapore, it would be better for me to go to a UK school since SG follows the same legal system as the UK. So what exactly is the diff btwn UK and US law schools if both are based on English common law (according to wiki)? And if there IS a difference, which system do Aust unis follow?

If you get your LLB from UK universities, when you go back to Singapore you need to obtain the Graduate Diploma in Singapore Law (1 year programme) and Postgraduate Practical Law Course (5 month programme) before you can start your pupillage/apprenticeship. Cons: Time required to complete the whole journey is longer than time required to complete LLB with local universities in Singapore (NUS or SMU). Pros: UK law degree is widely acceptable in jurisdictions like Malaysia, HK, Australia. If you have LLB from UK universities, you just need to take a module of Australian Constitutional Law if you want to do your pupillage in Australia. .

When do they start primary school in UK this year? (I'm talking about Catholic primary schools)

When do they start primary school in UK this year? (I'm talking about Catholic primary schools)?
I thought everyone will start on the 3rd Sept but I read somewhere online recently that Catholic schools may have different start dates? How true is that? I tried contacting my daughter's school these days but no one answers - I think because everyone's off on their summer 6 week holidays. Does your child attend a Catholic primary school in UK and will he/she be starting on 3rd Sept?? My eldest daughter is starting reception this year in a Catholic primary school.

Most schools in England go back on 3rd September but it's possible that there are local variations or that a school might have decided to use 3rd September for staff training. Why not contact your local Child Services and see if they have any information about the particular school you want to know about.
