[QUOTE="Daniel Boden, post: 35139, member: 487"] Yeah just to echo what others have said, your marks are not bad at all! Moreover, the fact you have done well in modules like Company Law and Law and Business will look good since those modules are pretty relevant to a career as a corporate lawyer. I can see that for some firms which are known to be pretty strict with academics like Slaughters, Davis Polk, Shearman etc. your Contract mark may be a small concern but other than that those grades look solid! How were your A-levels or equivalent? Do you meet the requirement for most firms? If so, then it sounds like, as others have said, that it is your application answers that may need to be improved and I'd also really recommend [USER=1]@Jaysen[/USER]'s review service which was a tremendous help to me when I was applying :) [/QUOTE]
