[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 117588, member: 2672"] Unfortunately, there will be no set answer to this, so it's difficult to advise on this broadly. It will depend on your mitigating circumstances, first of all. If you are explaining them well and your academics outside of them are strong, a firm may still take them into consideration even without evidence or proof. The fact you have a distinction in the LPC will help with that in some respects. But it will also depend on the individual firm you are applying to - some firms will be more open-minded to the grades and circumstances than others. No recruiter would put someone through to the next stage of the process if you didn't meet their minimum criteria though - there is no logic in doing that, so I suspect it might not always be your grades that are stopping you from progressing.
