We should start a petition to get Vantage/Candid ATS fixed so that people can get apps in. I think TCLA LLP will support it pro bono. We can gather outside Rare’s office on Monday like:- Harvey Specter - Presiding Partner

I’m not sure tbh. Usually a firm will state if they’re after consistent 2:1 or high 2:1. Like HSFK and Linklaters say 2:1 for every module. :( Diff firms seem to have diff interpretations but I think the general consensus is a ‘good’ or ‘strong’ 2:1 is 65-66 and a ‘high’ 2:1 is 67-69.- Harvey Specter - Presiding Partner

Someone I know secured a TC with Morgan Lewis with ABB at A-level. They went to a non-RG uni. I think Greenberg’s requirement is ABB so you meet it. Either way go for it if you can write a strong app to both firms! I also have similar A-levels.- Harvey Specter - Presiding Partner

It shouldn’t matter too much for most firms with the exception of maybe Slaughters, Cleary, Davis Polk and SullCrom who want high 2:1s. I have a few 2:2 modules but mostly strong 2:1 and 1st’s and have gotten past app stage with Akin, Willkie, Skadden, Weil and Gibson Dunn. I went to a...- Harvey Specter - Presiding Partner
