Cambridge has highest ranking in law at undergrad, as you can see with link. However, if you wish to do LLM, Oxford's equivalent the BCL (if coming from common law jurisdiction) or MJUR (if coming from civil law jurisdiction) has better reputation. \n\nCambridge doesn't use tutorial system of teaching in its LLM, whereas Oxford does: this involves small group teaching, i.e. it could be one on one, up to 4 on one: you would likely have 4 tutorials per subject & do 4 subjects. This can be pretty effective means of teaching if you come prepared for each tutorial. Both have tutorial system at undergrad.\n\nThe range of subjects you would expect to do will depend on the course. Their websites will give all the details on that. I believe, undergrad will involve you doing certain core subjects with more choices in your final year.

"Which is best? " is a personal question; it can only be answered in terms of which is best *for you*.  There is no one criterion or set of criteria with which to measure law schools.  Academics do not agree on any one list.\n\nSome considerations for you to determine which is best for you:\n\n1)  Where do you intend to practice law?  \nIn a country with a British law tradition, you may want to study in a school located in one of the British Commonwealth countries.  Although America has numerous excellent law schools, you should know that the American legal tradition, while it shares richly in the Anglo-Saxon legal tradition, differs significantly from it in many respects.  Constitutional law, procedure, rules of evidence, and criminal law are areas that come immediately to mind.  \n\nAnd within American schools, there is significant difference regarding, for example, East Coast v. West Coast and Southern schools.  Southern and Western schools generally come from a "community property" tradition which does not apply in other states.  Louisiana, with its background of French Napleonic law, is a unique case.  And, of course, California law differs in significant ways from that in many states.  And the laws of Texas, for example its real property law which includes unique provisions for oil and gas assets found under the land, differs from that of other states.  And its state bar exam tests on these uniquely Texan matters.  No doubt you would want to be aware of these matters as you consider your choice of schools.\n\nOn the other hand, law school prepares you to perform legal research, formulate and write opinions on legal matters, and choose and represent clients.  Those professional skills are transferable to any legal environment.  Some individuals trained in, say, Scotland, may practice for a time in California.\n\nAs commercial, political, and other transactions become ever more global in nature, transcending national boundaries, having training and multiple legal systems, and in comparative and international law, has increasing value and applicability.\n\n2)  What sort of educational environment is best for you?\n\nLarge law schools can offer larger libraries and a larger selection of elective courses and perhaps specializations and certifications in specialities as well.  Large schools can also offer amphitheater-size classes and be more impersonal while also being very competitive.\n\nSmall schools can offer a more personal experience with more interaction between students and faculty.  Small classes and more individual attention can be important to students as they find their way through the wide and complex universe of legal study.  These same schools may have relatively small law libraries, and fewer opportunities for legal internships and experience.\n\nNo on size is best for everyone.  You must decide on the factors that are important for you.  \n\n3)  Do you know already which speciality within law you intnd to pursue?  If so, then you will want to give special consideration to schools that offer several courses, or perhaps a certificate, in that speciality.  For example:\n\nMaritime or Admiralty Law\nIntellectual property or patent law\n"High Tech" law of telecommunications and technology\nThe Law of entertainment or of sports\n(Millions of dollars have been made by individual attorneys representing and acting as agents for Hollywood actors and American sports stars.)\n\nThese are only a few considerations.  No doubt others, and you youreself, can think of additional factors that may be important for you.\n\nBest of Luck\n\nMark / California\nps: I'm going through the law school application process myself right now.  But my situation is quite different from yours and my selection is limited.  But I am confident I will do well, pass the rigorous California bar exam, and enjoy the opportunity to contribute to my community.

Hands down, Oxford University (in the UK, in case there are others with the same name somewhere else).

You might be able to use the facilities of the following library in London as a member of the public on a once only basis.  http://www.library.qmul.ac.uk/about_us/visitors.htm. Otherwise, it is quite difficult to gain access to a law library unless you are in some way connected to the institution concerned.  You don't say whether you have a university degree or whether you are an undergraduate, or perhaps I could help more.

There are some very good uni's in your list there and all have good points including locality. I studied through Essex who have a good reputation and you are close to London by train.\n\nIts depends on your grade and tariff band but if you go to this address below, they have the University table and has history listed and from there you can use your grade etc and then compare for success and price.\n\nGood luck

There isn't a bad university in the lot.\n\nWhere do you want to study law?  If in the US, go to a US school.  If in the UK, then study in a UK school.\n\nIf you want to go to a US school you might want to think about location.  Cornel is in the middle of nowhere -- which may or may not appeal to you.  Stanford and Columbia are in locations where a lot of people want to live -- but both laces are expensive.  You might want to add other US schools that are in the top ten (e.g., Duke, Penn, Yale, UC Berkeley).

Given that Edinburgh is one of the world's best known English-language universities (and, no, I didn't go there) I'm surprised this is even a question.  But if it is, why don't you contact the External Relations department at Edinburgh and ask them for suggestions?
