DLA AC!

Congrats! When did you submit your application? all the best for your AC!

I had a Linklaters AC too and I think I flopped my partner interview and written case study assessment too. I'm really trying to stay positive, but I'm shook.

At least it wasn’t just me haha; I’m sure you did a lot better than you think! Can I ask when you did your AC and which scheme it was for?

Anyone waiting for a reply from Baker McKenzie post-app? (summer)

1st round is grad rec chat. 2nd round is partner interview/case study.

DLA piper AC! been waiting for 3 months 😂 I applied for the London one and ACs will be held in London

Sorry for all the questions but does anyone know if HL send a confirmation after completing the WG? Just did it and I haven’t received anything but just making sure!

No they don't, I finished mine today and didn't receive anything. But I did email them to ask for my score and they replied like an hour and a bit later, so if you want to check if you passed you can.

Also does it seem to anyone else that 18th percentile as a pass for HL is really low?

Wonder if DLA are sending out all ACs now? Does anyone know their process ?

This is so weird! I did their AC in Manchester yesterday (for the London one) 😂 I guess it was a good travel opportunity though.

Congratulations and good luck!

Yes it is low (if it even is there true 'pass rate')

I saw a post earlier that I was going to reply to saying HL review your app holistically - your WG score with your app. But if you are getting 18 percentile you aren't getting that to that AC lol.

I could be completely wrong Cus I did my WG whilst at gym but I’m pretty sure the norm group is harder for HL. Apparently grad rev said 32/40 will put u at 18th. Also heard of people getting 20-30th last year and getting through

Does anyone know if Forsters accept graduates for its vac scheme?
