[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 183831, member: 2672"] I would recommend trying to think more broadly than work experience/legal placements. Your work experience/legal placement will already be on your application form, and so this is an opportunity to present something different. Your answer is also more likely to be more unique if you choose something other than a legal placement. Alternatively, if you do want to talk about work experience, maybe focus on something very particular within it rather than talking about the placement broadly. For instance, is there a specific task/event within the work experience that would be more unique? Or could you talk about how a particular person on your placement inspired you (given they have said it can be a person who has inspired you). I’d just avoid generic “my vacation scheme was inspiring” statements as it just is a bit predictable/safe and something lots of other people can also state. But saying “my interaction with Client Joe Bloggs inspired me to” or “Working with partner Jane Smith was inspiring” is more specific/individual than claiming a whole placement. [/QUOTE]
