Hi @DJ250697 welcome to the TCLA community! There is a useful TCLA thread on this topic here, which offers a list of firms with no A-level requirements. It is worth bearing in mind that firms are a lot less focussed on A-levels nowadays, on account of social mobility and accessibility. So even if a firm you like does advertise an A-level requirement, it is worth applying if you have mitigating circumstances. Happy to answer any specific questions about this, as someone with 'poor' A-levels and an MC TC! ✨

Hi Kay, Lovely to meet you. How did you do? I always feel like I'm held back because of those A levels or because I don't pass those psychometric tests.
