    Demotivation

    First year LLB student here. I feel like I'm aiming too high given my circumstances. I did not score well in my A-levels (BCC final grade and A*A*C in AS) and my GCSEs weren't anything amazing either (4Cs, 3Bs, 1A* and a distinction in spoken English). I obviously don't come from a RG university...

    Are there any law firms that don't ask for your module grades?

    I want to apply for a TC but I messed up in one of my LLB modules. Are there any city law firms that don't ask for a module breakdown? I am happy to state my overall grade but I would prefer to not disclose my individual module grades.

    Giving up - are my grades holding me back?

    Hi all, Need some advice re TCs. I have been applying for the past two years (with no success), and I am thinking (I know they are!) that my 2:2s are preventing me from proceeding to any VI/ACs etc. Should I give up on City TCs - I am an EU student, so it is harder for me to justify regional...
