[QUOTE="futuretraineesolicitor, post: 85367, member: 4098"] Thank you so much. Just one last follow up question, please. I completely understand that life in practice would be much different than these extracurriculars but other than legal research, there is not a lot of responsibility that interns are entrusted with, here in Indian law firms. So there was, quite honestly, no way that I could've experienced these things. So, do you think I should caveat this string of experiences by saying that this was actually the closest that I could've gone to understanding the role of a commercial lawyer? I think this will clearly tell the interviewer that I'm quite aware of the fact that these contests do no truly depict the life of a lawyer. I don't want him/her to feel that I have a flawed idea of the role by doing a bunch of random contests so should I make this declaration upfront? Thank you so much for being so patient with all my questions. [/QUOTE]
