[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 13263, member: 2672"] Your age is not an issue - average age of someone qualifying is 28 or 29 if I remember correctly. The resits are going to be an issue - especially where they are spread over more than one course. Can you get any documentation to support the circumstances? Eg personal do medical references if your academics can’t provide one? Alternatively look out for firms who recruit heavily from paralegals populations, or organisations who don’t put weighting on academics (like the GLS). Unfortunately advice on application strategy would be no different to anyone else - you just have to plan your time effectively. Work out where to put your efforts, understand application window timelines and design a timeline around those. [/QUOTE]
