Hello, I just wanted to ask for some advice on how likely I would be to get a training contract.
My overall first year avatar was 59 with 2 subjects in the low 2:1 category and there rest in the high 2:2 catogory except criminal law which was a low 2:2.

My average for second year was a 61. And I received one 1st, one 2:1 , two upper 2:2s , 1 mid 2:2 and one lower 2:2.

During this time I had been struggling with really declining mental health and as I have a specific learning disability, both conditions made it extremely difficult to study, I would be able to ask my university if proof of extenuating circumstances but I fear wearyher i will be able to get a training contract.
I have previous academic record from oversees with high school grades of BBCCC and a prior university grade average of a 4.0 average overall.
I have also participated in some extracurriculars in leadership, negotiation and meditation.
But I worry if my grades will allow me to qualify for a gc.
Would you be able to recommend any advice?
