[QUOTE="eirake, post: 207840, member: 39133"] Hey everyone, sorry to be a bit of a damper on what seems to be a pretty successful day for most people but I just wanted to ask for some advice. I am an Oxbridge law finalist (with a mid-high 2.1 in my first year exams) and, with a PW post-interview PFO seeming imminent, I have gotten rejected from everything I have applied to this cycle. Short story is, I don’t really know that to do now. A masters degree is not an option for me due to financial reasons. Almost everyone I know has a job by now, the thoughts of inadequacy are a bit overwhelming to say the least… I have the backup option of applying to DTCs which I will do for sure, however, without much prior legal work experience I doubt I will get one. The other alternatives are a graduate visa, and starting the SQE without a TC or paralegal jobs, however I don’t really know how to start looking for them. Honestly the biggest issue is I just don’t know how to deal with it emotionally, I feel I’m less capable than everyone else, and that combined with the uncertainty of being an international student makes it even worse. I have friendships here, a relationship, and it all seems to on the line. Anyways really sorry for treating this thread with a bunch of strangers like my therapist but I just wanted to get people’s thoughts on what my next steps could be. [/QUOTE]
