I have a friend who just finished his law degree in the UK :O. A lot of it seems boring, but he motivates himself with the future prospect of, as he puts it, "crushing newbs" in court (which was also his exam motivation... starcraft mentality gone too far :p).
Another advantage I'd say the UK has is their assessments of grades. As I understand it, it is standard over there for exams to be anonymous, and graded by two people who don't know the student, separately. That sort of objectivity is not really seen in the US, at least, that I have ever seen. Also, the UK type of grading seems to do a better job of making meaningful distinctions, IMO, but perhaps that's something that varies quite a lot.
I just took the LNAT practice test for fun a few days ago, got 26/30 on the multiple choice part :p I was studying for the GRE so my law acquaintance gave me that for a comparison, while he did a practice exam for the GRE... but he quit after the analogy section put him off:
worship:sacrifice
a)invasion:massacre
b)foresight:augury
c) d)
He put a) but it was b). I'm inclined to agree with a) being better. ~.~ :p
