    I can totally understand this as I was in your same shoes last year but what I would say is keep persevering but also take breaks and allow yourself to do something else and engage with content that is not law-related, that will help you massively. Other tips are: Work on your application at...

    I would say to stick to the bullet point formal and definitely describe your tasks/responsibilities but also the skills you gained, I would not talk about how they will benefit you as a trainee there. Be sure to also quantify your results when describing your tasks as that will show your value...

    As Jessica confirmed, I am not sure whether there are minimum grades. You just have to do your best and send your grades in, and if you have extenuating circumstances that may explain a lower grade then I would encourage you to explain that, but there are no minimum grades as far as I am aware...

    @FM302989 Thank you so much for sharing your experience, I am sure it will be useful and relatable from many!

    It is a really cool opportunity to be meeting the firm and graduate recruitment but it is not in the slightest the only option to get through application stages so I would say that if you are sick, just take care of yourself! I got through law firms applications to firms I did not attend any...

    Hey @Tanyakaur11, I would modify the application just because you need to show you have modified your application and you are a much better candidate now. I understand that it might be easier to keep your answers but I do not think it will help you too much so try to find new ways to write your...
