[QUOTE="law2022x, post: 168621, member: 21492"] I am the same but as we both know the stats show that privately educated students are more likely to achieve firsts in first year than state educated. And given most apply for vac schemes in second year, those are the only grades firms can rely on. Plus it is just more difficult as a state educated student because you might struggle to afford vac accommodation or can’t afford a tutor. Several people I know had a tutor for finals. The stats do become more equal in final year but yeah top marks in first year are affected by your background. Especially law students who sit their exams in second term. [/QUOTE]
