Answer by JZD
Well, how about it?
If you want to know what to do, this is what I suggest as someone who interviews applicants regularly:
1. Get the best possible degree you can, a 2.1 is possibly acceptable, a first is more or less accepted as being a minimum entry requirement.
2. Unless you are at a prestigious university, get a masters in a relevant corporate law discipline from a decent university.
3. Get yourself a number of pupillages in leading commercial chambers. The competition is ferocious, so wait until you have your degree at the earliest.
4. Enter and win mooting competitions, scholarship awards from the Inn of Court or similar marks of ability and achievement.
5. Get a minimum grade of 'very competent' on the BVC or better still, 'outstanding'.
If you do all that, you're in with a chance. Competition for places at commercial chambers is unbelievable. Unless you are an outstanding candidate (and I mean, outstanding), don't even bother applying for pupillage with them.
