Is it good idea to apply for Taylor wessing spring (deadline is today and it's rolling) or should I just apply for summer?
Here's advice from the grad team when I attended their open day last week:

• Consider the scheme dates: The spring one is brand new, previously they only offered summer one, but as many students requested spring they've opened it this year. Also, the summer one is fall between the academic term, so if you're students both local or international please check your calendar and apply spring instead.

• Prepare your answers: They ask you one cover letter and 2 essay questions, make sure your application is strong before submitting your application. They allow the use of AI as long as you can briefly explain how wise you approach it.

• Beware of the test: Since you apply on the deadline day, it's likely that your application be responded imminently, meaning you are not supposed to wait weeks after your first stage if you passed the benchmark, like those who applied early.
