    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Thanks! I emailed my law school and they told me what my percentage would be. The figure they gave (61.8) was the figure I arrived at when I rounded the single year averages. I hope they are right... I wish it was on the transcript.

    Ask A Graduate Recruiter Anything!

    Thanks Dan Do you mean rounding up/down at the end of each academic year? That would make the most sense but I have emailed my uni to check. I can't see anything on the website.

    I was supposed to attend the case study interview at Mishcon on Monday but it has been postponed and I have not had any further updates yet. I wouldn't take silence as bad news, I suspect they are just really busy trying to juggle things around/come up with a new system.

    Feeling despondent this VS cycle..any advice is welcome

    I would look at increasing the number of applications you make, in addition to ensuring each one is of high quality. I have a 2:1 overall with a 2:2 in second year and I have terrible BTEC results. I applied to 6 firms last year and I got one video interview (did not progress further) and one...
