[QUOTE="LawbeginnerSeptember2025, post: 215684, member: 41740"] Hi, I am a student who has just finished their A levels and is due to start at the University of Exeter in September 2025. My intention career wise is to become an intellectual property lawyer in Australia, as I lived there for some time. I’m debating taking a gap year and reapplying due to job prospects and ability to get a training contact. Can anyone with accurate insight or experience give me an idea of the likelihood of me getting a training contract at this university if I’m putting the utmost effort into my studies, societies, work experience etc. My ACHIEVED A level grades are: A* - Welsh Baccalaureate A* - Criminology A - Biology A - English Literature And my GCSE grades are: English Language - A (8) Physics - A Chemistry - A Engineering- A Religious Studies - A Business Studies- A Maths (Higher) - B (7) Biology - B I like the city of Exeter and the campus and would very much like to start law next month but my understanding of what to apply for in my first year and of insight schemes, vacation schemes, training contact and what to do in my first year are very limited. Would I be better suited taking a gap year and applying to Oxford while increasing my understanding of what I’d have to do in my first year? Thank you for your time and consideration an advice or general information would be highly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
