[QUOTE="AvniD, post: 122931, member: 17155"] I am unsure if this is a disadvantage for you as I have seen people from all kinds of backgrounds thrive in commercial law, many of whom are non-native English speakers. I make mistakes in my native language sometimes and feel like even native English speakers mispronounce words and use incorrect grammar from time to time- we're all human! So if you do the same, remind yourself that this is a normal feature of speaking any language. And lastly, nothing can ever speak louder than the quality of your work, and that always has to be the focus for me personally. Ensuring that you work with your group members in an AC, make impressive case study presentations, are confident in your commercial awareness and have very clear, evidence-backed motivations for working in commercial law will make you an unmissable candidate in ACs, regardless of how masterfully you speak English.
