[QUOTE="TCLA Community Assistant, post: 81511, member: 2672"] Is it worthwhile asking BPP to consider the other three failed GDL grades for mitigating circumstances? The grades will be concerning on the face of it, but if you claim your mitigating circumstances when you apply to law firms, that will be less of an issue. Without explaining them, there is a significant risk that firms will question your interest in/ability to study law. This will be a major concern for any firm that may sponsor your LPC. How much a firm will consider your mitigating circumstances is going to depend on the strength of the rest of your academics. If this year is clearly a blip, then it becomes more obvious this is an anomaly and that the firm should look beyond that year. You may also want to line up an academic referee who can verify your mitigating circumstances or provide any input into how you may have performed if the circumstances hadn't happened. [/QUOTE]
