Let’s make this your strongest application season yet 💼
Normal
I’m really sorry to hear that you are feeling this way but one thing I do wish to draw attention to are your A levels! They’re good grades for sure and so I think that certainly stands in your favour. I wonder if attending webinars and trying to speak to grad rec might help because you can ask them about this question and hopefully get their reassurances that having your undergrad at U Law won’t matter much, it’ll be the grades they’ll look to assess. I also agree with the point above about making your own luck and think sometimes having the belief that something is a barrier can stop you applying and performing at your best. Try to alter your mindset about your choice of uni and please don’t frame it as a hinderance to your candidacy as I really don’t think it is. Make your apps, explaining the mitigating circumstances and just see where you get! Loads of people from Oxbridge and other RG universities still struggle to get TCs for all kinds of reasons, this process isn’t easy for anyone I don’t think. But the key thing is you have to be ‘in it to win it’ so to speak so please make your apps, tell your story, and have faith that TCs do come with perseverance and hard work
