Why Study Law? Students will learn about the legal system, law making , the nature of law, criminal law, the law of tort and human rights law or the law of contact. Law students develop a range of skills including the application of legal rules and principles to present an argument, analysis and evaluation of the law, legal issues and concepts. Some students take A Level Law because they already know that they want a career in law. This is an excellent introduction for students who want to read law at university or start a legal apprenticeship. It demystifies the law. Universities recognise the advantages of A Level Law. A Level Law is not just for students who want to enter the legal professions. It is a well respected subject that links well with science, humanities and social science subjects including history, sociology, philosophy, economics to name a few!
