Interview question about dedication to law

Hi

For the interview question "tell me about a time where you have shown dedication to the law" - is it asking about our dedication towards studying law OR an example from life / work when we were law abiding citizens ?

Thanks

Not a law abiding citizen (as this will be expected of you within the career from an ethics perspective) - more your dedication to law as a topic. That doesn’t need to be academically, that could just be the topic through your extra curriculars or work experience too.
