[QUOTE="Futurelawyer51, post: 144722, member: 29742"] My second-year results came in today, and I was gearing up to apply to law firms come September; however, I received a shockingly bad result that I feel might have brought my law career to an end before it started. I have extenuating circumstances for this grade as my younger brother was going through mental health issues and I was informed the day before the exam; however, the mark I got was so bad I don't even know if that even matters at all. Any advice on my next steps and how badly this will impact my future based on the 2:1 requirement will be greatly appreciated. What sort of firms should I look to and would any accept the 48% I got in this individual module? Please be brutally honest as well. I need to hear the truth :). My results to date are attached below: Year 1: Constitutional and Administrative Law- 68% Criminal Law- 65% The Law of Contract- 64% Legal Foundations- 60% Overall Year 1: 64% Year 2: Equality and Diversity- 72% The Law of Torts: 65% European Union Law- 62% Land Law- 61% (AFFECTED MODULE) Equity and Trusts- 48% Overall Year 2: 61% [/QUOTE]
