    Does anyone know what to include in the option "other experience" box on Ashurst's application? The form only allows you to enter 4 work experiences, so should you include all other work experience that you've done in this box, including dates, company, position and description?

    My limited two cents on this is that "chances" of success if choosing the direct TC route over the VS route probably depends on each firm. If a firm maintains this position, though, I think it's advising/kind of warning you that its most beneficial to you to apply to the VS over the TC, if this...

    Contract misery

    That's not a bad grade at all, especially considering contract law is definitely one of the harder modules for everyone. Don't beat yourself up and I highly doubt this will be a dealbreaker for any firm!
