[QUOTE="yanerlim, post: 2186, member: 446"] I wouldn't be too worried about grades if you got a 2:1, the most important thing lies on your application and this was emphasised to me by many of the firm recruiters I have spoken to. They mentioned that they will look into mitigating circumstances if candidates fail to achieve a 2:1, but if they achieved a 2:1, the most important thing is to submit a well-made application. So for instance, someone may graduate with a first class but submitted a superficial and poorly made application, they will much rather go for someone who graduated with a 2:1 but amazing application. I think work experiences are very important as well, as it shows you are dedicated to build a legal career and have a solid reason as to why you want to do this. [/QUOTE]
