Lse ac uk/careers How to write cvs and cover letters

4 Do I need to give the full addresses of the 

places I have studied?

No, giving the city is enough; for example, “Sciences-Po, Paris”.  

You can add the country if you feel the city is not very well known. 

5 How should I present predicted grades? 

In most situations this is more important for undergraduates than 

postgraduates as many employers specify a certain class of degree as an 

entry requirement. First of all consult your tutor to find out what they 

think your final result will be. If you can’t do that then make a realistic 

estimate yourself based on your previous years’ grades. It is normal to use 

a phrase such as “expected result 2:1”.

For postgraduates, it’s of much less importance. Employers will rarely 

ask for a “merit” or “distinction” so, unless the job is placing particular 

weight on your postgraduate qualification, it’s optional.
