YLS online PBL self-assessment
Thank you for your application to the University of York.
As you may know, the problem-based learning (PBL) approach to learning law is very different to other Law Programmes in the UK. For that reason, it is really important that you understand how this works and that we do what we can to ensure that we are a good ‘fit’ for each other.
Please have a look at the materials in the next section and consider the questions posed. Having done that, you should then move on to the ‘Self-Assessment’ where you will be presented with some questions relating to our Law Programmes and asked to think about/record your responses. You will then see what the questions are trying to evaluate and what types of responses well-suited applicants might produce.
Finally, and most importantly, you will be asked to undertake a self-assessment and decide whether you wish to accept your offer. Please take this exercise very seriously. If you do this, you may decide that York is not the right place for you. That is disappointing, of course, but we would much rather that you discover that now, rather than when having made significant commitments, or when you think it may be too late.
