To whoever is seeing this comment and is first year. DO NOT MESS AROUND! I did and it is not worth it. Work hard and set yourself up for success because now it is too late for me to get the marks to get into a top 5 law firm for articles and it is the biggest regret I have.

    Sibusisiwe Malinga 0 seconds ago Thank you for this valuable information. I completed my undergraduate BA Law at Rhodes university. I completed my postgraduate LLB at Unisa. South African law is the same regardless which university you attended. It all depends on your work ethic and most importantly your academic results. Rhodes was good but Unisa's style of teaching law is by far the best. It's clear, thorough and you won't make it through any of their exams if you're poorly prepared. Kudos to Bowmans for employing the lady who obtained an 80% average at Unisa. I know what she went through to get good results.

It was only last year that i finally found financial assistance to continue. Unisa had to take 50% of my credits, which was another draw back. QUESTION: will my academic journey/background put me at a disadvantage with the firms?
