[QUOTE="Paralegal178, post: 17775, member: 2177"] Your A levels are totally fine! Especially given your first and work experience. I have BCC (with mit circs) and a 2:1 from a non-RG and have made it to AC with firms asking for AAB. I have an upcoming AC and a final interview with two magic circle firms. I don’t think A levels carry as much weight once you’re a graduate as they have much more recent grades to assess you on. Please don’t give up! Find what works for you with the commercial awareness aspect. Would agree with the websites/podcasts others have mentioned but would also add Watson’s Daily - super quick and easy to read and provides context in relation to how issues affect law firms. Also try to attend LegalCheek events as they really help with commercial awareness and provide networking opportunities. Keep going and best of luck ☺️ [/QUOTE]
