[QUOTE="anonymousnoodle, post: 147878, member: 30541"] Hi, apologies if this is in the wrong section, but would like to seek some advice. For background: [LIST=1] [*]International [*]Decent O-Levels (1A+, 5A, 3B+) [*]Horrible A-Levels (CCD) [LIST=1] [*]Sat for my A-Levels lost and unmotivated, coupled with having to provide full-time care to a family member for approx. 1 year. [*]Started my LLB in a low-ranked uni in my home country, before transferring to an RG uni. Graduated with a 2:1 this past summer. [*]Really struggled in Year 1, but managed to slowly claw my way back up from a 56 in y1, to a 63 in y2, and 68 in y3. [/LIST] [/LIST] I've managed to use my results in year 3 to get a 3-month placement within the government legal department of my home country. That said, I remain super insecure about my A-Level and Year 1 grades, and realistically what are the chances of those affecting my applications for vacation schemes/paralegal positions in the UK, as I understand it's a super competitive scene. Thank you in advance! [/QUOTE]
