[QUOTE="rain2801, post: 215869, member: 38972"] Hi, thank you so much! This was very helpful. In terms of academic awards, my university does not publicise ranks of students and only provides grades, so we also don't get academic awards or anything until we graduate either which is when we do get to know our relative ranks. I did consider LLMs, but as you said barring Oxbridge and LSE there's not many places which can add onto my CV, not to mention the costs of doing an LLM are significantly higher as an international student with limited scholarship avenues. I have started preparing for the upcoming cycle and plan to apply to more firms, although I'm still looking for help on how to draft my personal statement better since I believe that is one key area I am still lacking in. Would it be fine if I reach out to you over DM for advice on personal statement? [/QUOTE]
