I am a First Year Law student and I am looking at requirements for Vacation schemes for next year. My A-Levels didn’t go to plan due to some problems I dealt with. In short, my school life wasn’t at all great; bullying from a teacher and kids through secondary, getting SA’d by a guy in my year, my grandad getting cancer around exam period.
That’s the general gist of it. I got ABBB at alevel, the law firm needs AAA. I know there are other firms but this is more of a question out of curiousity. Would I be able to use these issues as mitigating circumstances, or would it hurt my career more so to do it?
