Posting once more, thank you to everyone who was so helpful in my last post!

So, I'm recent graduate from a foreign law school. I have not yet received my final marks, or completed the NCAs. I've been looking online and I've seen many firms and businesses advertising for articling students for 2024/25, and I don't want to miss deadlines.

However, I may not have my grades in time and I definitely won't have my NCAs completed this summer, although they will be by the time articling begins.

I'm wondering if I take the chance and apply, and hope they're willing to take a chance on me or wait until I have all the requirements that they're looking for and article in 2025/2026. I don’t want to wait that long but I have a feeling that could be my only option. Any suggestions and / or advice is welcome!

Thanks!
