[QUOTE="MaxC7930, post: 191619, member: 36184"] Honestly just looking for some advice. I am a second year law student at the Uni of Cambridge, got a 2:1 in First Year, I had met HSF at an open day and networked with them on 3 different occasions. I believe my application was as good as it could have been - I had a friend who get the vac scheme at HSF last year have a final look and give me lots of advice which I incorporated. I did the personality test thing which I apparently passed. All of this just to get rejected with the rejection email citing academics. I guess I'm asking what more should I do? Aim for a First this year? Or reduce my expectations and apply to some less competitive firms - possibly in the silver circle? (I have never made it past the application stage at any MC or US firm). Any advice would be appreciated - thanks. [/QUOTE]
