Rather than avoiding academia at this time, it may make more sense to build up evidence of your true academic potential.The issue firms will have is that they cannot see your true academic potential and cannot gauge what this would have been if the circumstances were not there.Mitigating circumstances are easier for firms to consider when they are one set of circumstances for a limited period of time. The more circumstances you claim and the longer period of time you are claiming them for makes this trickier, and especially when it is across a whole qualification.Your experiences with SA are legitimate extenuating circumstances, but the burn out in your final year unfortunately won’t be seen in the same way. I think there would be concerns about your final year grades not improving when there weren’t any mitigating circumstances during that time.I understand this may be disappointing advice to receive, but I don’t want to pretend this is not going to be a challenge for you.</blockquote>
