Just got my final grade from a top five law school, and very happily got a first! Final mark was 69.8 but because I got mostly firsts in third year the board of examiners bumped me up. I hadn't considered applying for cambridge llm before this because I only got a mid 2:1 in second year, but I'm considering whether I might as well try and apply? I want to do an llm regardless so this isn't me saying this on the basis that I think it'll help me get a TC (I want to go to the bar anw). But I'm basically asking if it's a realistic prospect.

Edit: Also want to apply to the Oxford criminology and criminal justice masters (I want to do the criminal bar) which has a grade requirement of 67% in undergraduate. But my advanced crim module was my worst as I only got 67% in that. Feedback was mostly on my structure so I can hope to edit it to send it in the application. My criminal module at the start of my degree was also pretty meh and I got a 64% but have obviously improved since then. My dissertation was also based on criminal justice and that got 78% so that might counteract that?

Sorry this post is a bit rambling, I'm quite elated right now!

I am freaking out right now i don't know what to do. I submitted my diss a while ago and I was very sick at the time with a chronic condition I have. I know it was an awful idea, but originally I ran my footnotes through ai to create a bibliography. It was useless and got the sources all wrong so I deleted it and did it manually.

I just went through my bibliography and I saw that I must have missed a few sources when deleting. There's a section of journal articles (several of which have the wrong names because ai is shit) in the website section. I've got over 100 sources and above that, in the actual journals, section, I've got the actual correctly cited sources. They are also correctly cited in the footnotes

I am freaking out and feel sick with anxiety, I have no idea what to do. I never use ai for substantive work and I have never used a fake source but I don't know what to do. I already had an issue with my diss because I was on the floor in pain because of my condition and submitted 20 mins late (I've submitted an appeal with evidence) but I am just a wreck right now.

EDIT: Also, to clarify, we are allowed to use AI to format references but I am concerned that they won't realise they're real and connect them to the actual references above. Also the fact that they're in the website section of the bibliography. Not sure what to do

My partner and I are considering just creating a new name when we marry rather than just hyphenating, and would want to combine both our cultures—my partner is Indian so I came here for ideas! He's from Kerala and my background is British

In the blessing girls say when they get their period, one of the women mentioned is Ruth. But Ruth's story isn't much to with infertility and barely to do with having children. The whole Book of Ruth is about the relationship between Ruth and Naomi, her mother in law. Children are only relevant at the end when she gives birth to a son, who has no real importance besides linking her as an ancestor of King David.

I'm not sure why they included Ruth in this blessing when she seems very far removed in terms of relevance? There are a lot more biblical women which would make more sense here, including (ironically) Hannah

It's said that women aren't allowed to have jobs, but that lady was definitely working at the flower shop. It would make more sense economically that econowives might be able to work in certain jobs but that their salary was paid to their husbands maybe? Like textile factories and stuff
