Say, for example, through the open day you got some insights into a particular practice area and was able to see the legal/business perspectives. This will demonstrate a strong commitment to the profession if you substantiate it with more specific points on your overall experience. This could include details on any presentations (what you learnt), any case studies, workshops, etc. Any research could reveal the business side of say, private equity, for example. Open days will enable you to see how a law firm approaches work within such industries. This will also be a plus if you’re applying to firms you attended an open day at. You also don’t need to expand on the open day in depth - just how the work appealed to you with specific examples. Most why CL questions tend to be 200-300 words in length, or sometimes less. So, always focus on the work, what you got from it, and how it solidified your passions.</blockquote>
