[QUOTE="City Lawyer wannabe, post: 75823, member: 12156"] Hello, I am 25 years old. I graduated top of my class (LL.B.) from a low-ranking UK institution from 2016-2019 I then attended a Russell Group university for my first LL.M. and graduated with a Distinction 2019-2020. After, mainly due to COVID-19 restrictions I decided to take a further LL.M. (Int Taxation) at another Russell Group university 2020-2021. For 2021-2022 I will be attending the University of Cambridge for yet another LL.M. , since it has always been a dream of mine to attend Oxbridge. My academic profile will look like this... LL.B. , LL.M. , LL.M. (Int Tax) , LL.M. (Oxbridge). In attending a low-ranking institution, it was incredibly difficult to find opportunities. We did not have connections to law firms, campus ambassadors etc etc. I still managed to gain some 'less prestigious' work experience at high-street/regional law firms. Aside from this I have held a full-time job as a legal assistant and legal intern abroad for one year. I also help in managing a property portfolio covering various legal aspects. Do you think I still have a shot at applying for magic circle vac schemes/training contracts or would you say 25 is too late? Thank you. [/QUOTE]
