[QUOTE="Abbie Whitlock, post: 227671, member: 42112"] Hey! "Outside work and study" just means anything you do in your personal life that isn't part of your job, degree, or formal education. This can include: [LIST] [*]Societies and volunteering (if not connected to your job / studies) [*]Hobbies - sports, music, reading, gaming, fitness, art, languages. Anything that you genuinely enjoy in your spare time! [*]Personal projects - blogs, small businesses, mentoring, or fundraising [*]Part-time interests - these may be things you don't get to do as often, such as travel or cultural activities. [/LIST] Essentially, anything that shows who you are beyond academics and work. It doesn't need to be impressive - just genuine and reflective of your interests. I always used to discuss my interest in reading and the London Underground, so it doesn't have to be linked to law in some way at all! I hope that helps :) [/QUOTE]
