[QUOTE="NikolaosLouris, post: 28959, member: 5892"] Greetings! I hope you are well. I just wanted to ask your help with my recent applications to training contracts and my overall perceived attractiveness to law firms. Do I stand a reasonable chance at a TC? My goal is to work at a firm such as Pinsent Masons. I have average high school results due to personal illness. AAB-ABB (depending on the scale used to weigh the equivalence (went to a french high school)). I have a 1:1 (74 overall grade) from Cardiff Met in BA (Hons) Business Studies & Management with Finance. With a 75 in my dissertation which involved heavy research. I have a Merit from The University of Glasgow in MSc International Banking & Finance. My dissertation topic is on the evolution of due diligence in private equity due to new financial innovations. I'm also doing a research paper on a new valuation model for companies. Finishing in July. A slight chance at finishing with a distinction. I have completed a summer internship at a well-known bank (at my home country) and recently did a 3-month legal internship/shadowing at a local law firm. I am currently accepted at the Cardiff School of Law and Politics to undergo my GDL in September. [/QUOTE]
