[QUOTE="boots pharmacy, post: 250221, member: 38022"] Hi Lawlawland, So glad to see you have succeeded in securing a VS! And with Simmons no less! I recall your being particularly excited about that firm. Really well done and happy for you. Copypasted are sample intros from another firm with a similar system. I hope they are useful. Example 1 Joe Smith University: Warwick Subject: Law Languages (Fluent): Interests/Activities: I have just completed the penultimate year of my degree. In my spare time, I work as a Venues Assistant at the Student Union and have previously volunteered at my local Citizens’ Advice Bureau in the role of Advisor. I also enjoy playing football for my university team. In the last year, I have attended open days at Slaughter and May, Jones Day and DLA Piper and more recently, have completed work experience at Hollis Whiteman Chambers and Barclays Bank. Example 2 Amy Jones University: St Andrews Subject: English Languages (Fluent): Interests/Activities: I am currently undertaking my GDL at BPP, having graduated last year. During my gap year, I worked as an English language assistant in Beijing and also taught at an orphanage in Nepal for three months. I have gained legal experience at Freeth Cartwright and Pinsent Masons. At BPP, I am the Director for Street Law which involves organising presentations for secondary schools and at St. Andrews, I was an active member of the Dance Society. [/QUOTE]
