It doesn't matter whether the students do Chinese A or Chinese B, but a good command of Chinese is almost a must.
The biggest law firms only recruit from those who are already in their vac schemes. And, before they make vac scheme offers, they will carry out their own assessment of the candidates' Chinese ability. A typical application process can be something like this (based on the experience of a student studying law in the UK and applying to magic circle firms in both UK and HK):
(1) paper application (including a short personal statement listing out extra-curricular activities at uni, why apply to the firm, etc.);
(2) Online assessment such as the Watson Glazer test, verbal reasoning test;
(3) HR interview in both English and Chinese (mandarin preferred);
(4) Associates or partners interview in both English and Chinese (again, mandarin preferred);
Between (3) and (4) some firms may ask the candidates to undertake some kinds of language ability test. Last year, a magic circle firm emailed an article in Chinese to a candidate 30 mins before interview, which is about the PRC monetary system, and asked the candidate to do a presentation in English during the interview. They may also ask the candidates to do some English/Chinese translation.
These days, it's very difficult to get a vac scheme offer from a big international firm without a good command of Chinese.
