*Placement Tests
All students are required to take standardized placement tests in English and Mathematics. These tests are administered by the University during the orientation week and aim to assess each student’s potential. These tests measure quantitative and verbal aptitudes. All test scores are then screened by a panel. Appropriate programs are then drawn up to assist students in light of the observations made by the panel. Holders of the General Certificate of Education in English and Mathematics or an equivalent qualification are exempted from the placement tests.

Upon completion of the program, students are expected to have:
• developed a critical assessment of the values of the law and the relationship between legislation and its wider impact, and to have understood, and have insight on, specific and selected legal issues;
• become more sensitive to both legal techniques and the complexities of legislation;

• become prepared to use their analytical and research abilities and problem-solving skills;

• become familiar, at a practical level, with the institutions and methods of legal science.
