They are dean’s list + first. What distinguish them is attitude. Consistent achiever won’t give bs like it’s the last holiday as an excuse for poor performance

Lul you obviously never do your part B yet still come tok cock.
Part B in the past and part B now ish different. You compare 20 years ago people and now, sibei funny.
Jlc/DPPs must day time run cases during their part B, prosecute and charge people. Where got time to study for part B now? Write submissions already want to drop pants.
Material so heavy, everyonez also copy from other people notes. No one really study for the prizes.
Last time also firms will pay you bonus if you score well. Now firms where got give bonus?
Also, get on list is not like uni. They go by number of subject distinction. U barely pass 6 subjects (51%) and ace 2 (75%), compared to you do decently well for all (all 70%). First one got list, second no have.
True top students ish consistent grade and know the rules of the stupid game.

Lol this is definitely written by someone who got mediocre grades during his undergrad degree and is desperately hoping that a part b dist will improve his career prospects.

All sound like excuses to me. Employers just look at the surface - you rank 1st 2nd 3rd 4th out of 700 people, it is what it is. What no time study, holiday, whatever. Ok, you won’t be penalised for not getting on the list, but it is definitely advantageous if you do.

Not write correct. The bonuses depend very heavily on the equity partner's revenue and the associate's perceived value + flight risk.

Why must give bonus to big 4 assoc when there is no diff between a NQ and a 1PQE.
Force the NQ to stay back and extra time + steep learning curve for 4 Saturday’s and Sunday’s and they can ramp up to speed as 1PQE.
Unless you’re so damn good that I scared you run from big four to CC. Then I pay.
But so many top students applying to big four every year. Dean’s list, part b comm list, fch, prizes, moots etc. see also like water like that.

It is definitely advantageous (to what degree can be debated) but you are delusional if you think a part b comm list is better than or comparable to fch/summa + deans list.

last time nobody gave a s**t about part b. just another hurdle to clear like a driving test - doesn't matter if you passed with 18 demerit points or 0 demerit points so long as you got your license.
Nowadays with the job market for TCs and NQ roles so tight, desperate law students are obv clutching at all kinds of things to distinguish themselves.

Then how u explain why some JLCs/DPP is in the 2016 list for instance and why the top student for NUS is also the top in the 2015 list? Other than consistency and truly the most outstanding (being able to juggle agc commitments), there are no other credible reasons for this

New poster here, just find this debate about part b funny. If you are looking at private practice, part b is just another distinguishing factor to the firms when hiring but is in no way a good indicator as to whether or not one will do well in private practice. I have seen fchs/good 2.1s with part b list who are totally not cut out for private practice (low EQ, no commercial awareness or common sense, only booksmart, poor client servicing skills). Granted, there are 1-2 who are brilliant but you get the idea, the rest are not any different from those who did not get on the part b list. I am not in the civil service and I don't teach so I can't comment on how good an indicator the part b list will be for those areas.
Those who got on the list, good for you but you will still have to be humble and work hard.
To a certain extent, FCH may not be a good indicator as well. Part B and/or FCH, it may get you an interview or a TC but whether or not you are retained or hireable as a lawyer requires a different set of skills which is hard to measure with exams.
