TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

How do you guys brush up on contract law before an interview, are there certain aspects you look at which come up more often? OR, do you just go over the whole module brushing up on areas you don't know as well? It's over a year since I studied it for the law conversion and with AC season coming up, I'm trying to work out the best way to go over it.
Any suggestions are welcome!

People received holding email from Reed Smith !
Should we expect PFO at this point ?
Should we expect PFO at this point ?
do you guys think they post all pfo's at the same time and Invites at the same time then... Im so stressed atp
anyone heard back frm sidley austin
Last year they sent out holding emails to everyone who completed the VI (VI was the 3rd stage of the process rather than combined with SJT) and gave out ACs to everybody at the same time. Either they have: (i) sent out all their ACs and those with holding emails will be PFO'd on Friday; (ii) sent out ACs to the highest scoring candidates; (iii) waiting for AC holders to book/drop out; (iv) they're sending out ACs as they are reviewing results and VI responses (unlikely considering the number of applicants who progressed to the next stage).
I would still wait, it seems like only a handful of people have received an AC so far. The same thing happened with AG - some people got an AC early, some people a bit later.Well Reed Smith is definitely going in the rejection pile
If it makes you feel better I did 2 vac schemes last year, didn't convert any and have been rejected by 15 firms this cycle but we keep going!!Well Reed Smith is definitely going in the rejection pile
Someone had raised a good point to me earlier and mentioned that Reed Smith invites 70 candidates to AC (according to Chambers Student). So I don't think we should worry for now, possibly like what @sxw517 said, they must have invited the higher candidates first.Well Reed Smith is definitely going in the rejection pile

Just a quick question about this, how hard is it to convert a vacation scheme?
Has anyone still not heard back from Dentons post app??? Would it be a good idea to send recruitment an email?? Applied on 2nd of Jan
Have you received an update with AG post test? I think the silence could indicate a pfo
Not sure about this cycle but last cycle there were ACs into March with about a week or two notice before the dates, certainly wouldn't rule anything out from AG if you're post test!
Totally depends on the firm but I'd say roughly 50% of those on a VS will get a TC. Higher for firms that hire exclusively from their vac schemes
What about asking in the specific Reed Smith thread ? If they’re still sending out ACs or not ?
