[Law queries]

Has skadden sent PFOs as well?

No idea. Haven’t heard from them.
Do they send acceptance/rejection at once?

They said we will hear back today. Definitely a PFO for people who haven’t heard back yet. I am sure they send invites at once then rejections later

Fair enough. It is just my experience has always been so that they send invites as a whole and pfos later.. but we should have hope

Sorry if this has already been asked but does anyone have any information or tips for Dechert's written exercise? It's the first time i've progressed to this stage and i'm unsure of what questions to expect exactly or how to prepare.

 

[Tintin06]

Skadden rejection.

Kinda makes me doubt all of my other applications since I thought Skadden was one of my strongest ones...

 

[legally.brown]

Skadden Pfo and CMS VI lol

That’s quite a lot for a written exercise

 

[SoonToBeTrainee]

Did anyone here get progressed with Skadden who has also applied in the past?

I’m getting the impression that they don’t progress people who have applied in previous cycles
