Oh please don't try to obfuscate. Anybody with the slightest inkling of legal education knows how much local law students study, in comparison to those from the second rate UK law schools. Everybody there gets a 2:1 with minimal effort, and unis hand out 1:1s like candy.

Ask your friends from NUS/SMU law how much effort the First Class/Summas put in to get their honours.

Law firms hire many UK students with grades that look good on transcripts. Its not about the competition, its about the declining standards of new entrants into the profession.
