    Thank you for giving examples :) I do mention some of these skills like research & communication , but I have to admit that I haven’t explained how they will be helpful to my career in law. I’ll try to improve on that aspect.

    How realistic is it to get a VS or TC offer if you haven't had many conventional jobs in general? There is usually an emphasis on how non-legal work experience is equally as important, but what if you don't have much work experience at all? I am 23, and graduating this year (with a 2:1 most...

    sorry i meant if you progress to that stage, does it have to be submitted by the application deadline? I wanted to work on the application but unsure if it is worth doing at this point with the deadline being 3 days away.

    Hey, well done on progressing to the test ! I just found out about this diversity scheme and was wondering if they consider successful applicants for a TC or do you need to apply separately for that?

    Sorry if this is obvious but does this mean they consider apps on a non-rolling basis? The firm is TLT.

    If you studied a different A-level equivalent course like computing before doing the law A-level equivalent or at a similar level, can/should you discuss that in the why law questions? I am asking because I went through that experience and realized that legal aspects of computing like patents...

    Was just about to ask this, I am applying to English firms while doing an English law degree in Scotland. From my perspective, if I am applying to regional firms rather than City, then that is in of itself an indication that I'll stick, but I completely understand that the firm has no reason to...

    It is like a training course, so I guess I'll put it in the extra curricular section. Thank you for the input.

    I honestly do not have any advice but I can relate to this so much. The one and only AC I made came after doing WG, Verbal Reasoning and VI, but when the feedback came, it was like they were describing someone else. I wanted to learn from it but seemed like I was not fit for them at all, even...

    You're right but I am confused on how to fill this out for the firm, because I did an NC at age 16-17 and then HND at age 17-19, and then started the law degree. And you're right, the college I did the HND from or my uni should be able to help.
