I’m a Year 13 student currently taking A level law, english lit and religious studies and I am aspiring to go into strategic consultancy or corporate law in the future and need advice. More specifically whether my mediocre to bad GCSE grades will matter if I accomplish very high tier A level grades and if there are any specific career pathways into either corporate law or strategy consulting you are knowledgeable of and recommend. Lastly, I am intending to move to America next year and continue in my studies but do not have 100% clarity of whether this is a good option for me if I want to get into CL or SC or apply for apprenticeships in england. Thanks for your time.

I am currently in England entering Year 13 (my A level year) studying English Literature, Religious studies and Law. I achieved mediocre GCSE grades due to mitigating circumstances but I intend to achieve the highest grades I can in my A levels. I also am aiming to go to UCL to do LLB and further on, Corporate Law, and was wondering if it is achievable with mediocre GCSE’s and if there’s any advice anyone could give! Thanks for your time guys.
