Kirkland rejection post VI but it is more than justified as I did not manage my timings well at all tbf...
For anyone that has been offered a direct TC with Links, how long after the AC did you hear back?
I'm new to TCLA and I must say that all of the posts have been every insightful, feels very reassuring to know that I'm part of such a lovely, helpful group of lawyers-to-be. Best of luck to everyone waiting
17 hours
Nope, but I think the consensus is only ppl who applied for VS have heard back so far
Don’t forget that, like with social media, we have control over what we filter on the forum and how we present ourselves
Last Friday I was in the worst headspace imaginable and felt truly negative and down. It’s like anything, it ebbs and flows, but I do think that trying to exercise your mind into formulating things more positively can be a great thing for your long term perspective and it’s something I’ve been working on for such a long time since going through this all! Really grateful to all of you for your positive thoughts and support too One of my friends just did an interview with slaughters yesterday. I believe that this is the final week maybe. They'll get back to us next week for sure.
Last year, a friend of mine interviewed in March for direct TC and got it, might be different this year though
Anyone hear back from A&O post Interview? How long did it take them to get back to you?
Thanks x
Thanks x
Still waiting! It’s the two week mark for me tomorrow. I think we might be the final batch of candidates and they’re just deciding still
This forum has been a huge comfort to me so it's about time I post.
Weil rejection and Kirkland rejection today. Thanks to those who post optimism, it's massively uplifting

Don't worry, I received 12 rejections from CC one day due to a system glitch
I was like "well guys, I understand..."
Still waiting to hear back from Reed Smith post research questions ! As well as Slaughter and May & Trowers however the deadline was only last Friday!
Has anyone heard from Forsters or Charles Russell Speechlys? (I know they both just closed + non-rolling - not sure how fast they are)
