Degree Apprenticeships

My predictions: A* A C (gonna try an argue for an A* A* B)
My interest: Law or maybe finance
My subjects: History Economics Maths
Extra curriculars:
- Bar Mock Trial
- Started two clubs- one for news paper writing on legal cases and the other one was maths related
- Have done work experience at a legal office
- Online webnairs
- Read some books
- Law Society
- Schools Model UN
- Residential Cambridge Programme


With everything I have said, if I were to apply to many of them now how likely would I get in?

You have listed a lot of things but the only way to find out how good a candidate you are, is to apply and see how you get on. The first part of the process is answering 4-6 questions on why us, why apprenticeship, what interests you, describe a time when..... This is the hardest part and requires a lot of research and having a great USP to add always helps.
Your predicted grades are fine for most general law firms.

Hi there

You definitely have enough to be in with a big shout, however the 0.7% acceptance rate is brutal.

I'm currently a degree apprentice myself (just finished my first year) and am now helping a number of students secure their dream DAs, through both 1-1 sessions and using my e-book; designed to give applicants that slight edge over the competition.

It would be great to work with you to help you do the same!

Best wishes,
Louis

Applying now will usually be for Sept 2026 intake, so yes, no reason why not.
