    A-Levels/UCAS - Which Firms

    Hi Jessica, Thanks for the reply. It's just a bit confusing sometimes as when you read resources like Chambers Student or Law Careers or Legal Cheek they all have a mismatch of information about recruitment criteria and information, then when the firm is silent on the point it becomes...

    A-Levels/UCAS - Which Firms

    Hi all, I am in the process of making applications for winter Vac Schemes, albeit a limited number of firms offer them. I am terribly keen on some of the magic circle firms but am conscious that 128 UCAS points (3 A-levels consisting of an A* and an A) does not meet their minimum criteria...

    I have, I’ve progressed to the latter stages for national firms and a few big international ones but so far no luck with ACs and Vac Schemes (I’ve done one Vac Scheme at a City firm about 2/3 years ago). I’ve given it a shot at a few were I’ve not met the Alevel standard and made it to the...

    Hi Jessica, I have A* A D at Alevel, 2:1 from Non-Russell Group (ex-poly), and have a decent amount of legal work experience both commercial and non-commercial. I am worried about my ambitions of wanting to join a City firm, particularly US firms, because of my A-level grades. I like the...
