[QUOTE="Isabelcampbell, post: 216069, member: 41907"] Hi! I’d really encourage you to focus on the future rather than dwelling too much on your A-levels (which I know is easier said than done!). What stands out most from your post is that you already have a clear idea of what you want, and that determination will carry you much further than a single set of grades. Law firms are increasingly interested in potential, resilience and motivation, so the way you’re approaching applications this early on is a real strength. In your first year, the best thing you can do is settle into your degree, aim for strong academics, and start gradually building experiences that show the skills firms value (eg teamwork, leadership, curiosity). At the same time, keep applying for open days and insight schemes, because they’ll give you both exposure and evidence for your applications. As for resits, definitely check individual firms’ policies, but remember: the biggest differentiator will be how you perform and grow at university. You’ve already shown the initiative that recruiters look for- so keep that momentum, and the rest will follow! [/QUOTE]
