Does anyone know if you reapply to NRF in the same cycle if you can redo the Arctic Shores test?

Anyone else been ghosted by HL after the first test? I did mine on 19 Sept 😕

There was quite a large gap between! I completed my 1st one 27th September and next one came through 9th October

Don't know about doing the games again. But I aplied dfor summer when rejected for winter last year. I reached the VI last year in the summer scheme. Hope that is helpful.

I recently applied for Hogan Lovells' winter vac scheme, and accidentally submitted one of my module grades a single mark higher than it actually was. I wasn't sure what to do so I emailed grad rec asking them to withdraw my application. I have not received a response yet, but they just emailed an invite to the online assessment. What should I do here? Is there any chance I can progress with the process?

When did you submit your B&B application?

 

[Dannie]

Have people gotten the HL First Test for those applying for the summer vac... I applied 30 september and haven't gotten it...

 

[TortillaTC]

Willkie Open Day PFO( put a lot of effort into this one and feel like I submitted a very tailored application so kinda discouraged and unsure what more I could do

 

[summersun]

When did you submit your B&B application?

I applied on the 29th so it's been a while... someone said they got it yesterday so assuming I didn't make the cut.

I think I sent my app around the 4th October so perhaps they just have a backlog to work through?

I applied on 18th Sept, but I don't think it was rolling.
