Hi - does anyone know when I should submit an application for a self-funded law conversion course starting this Sept, as a backup option while waiting for TC outcomes? Would you advise doing that?

Hey, thanks for this - would you say your advice would be the same if the job is non-law related?

Hi! For those who are working and doing TC applications at the same time, how do you normally negotiate time off to do a law firm AC with your workplace? As sometimes law firms don't give you loads of time in advance to apply for time off and would I have to give a reason? (for context, it's a...- 19vanessat

if a firm doesn't state a word limit for a cover letter, how much should we assume the word count to be? other firms have put cover letters around 750 words I think, should I just go with that as a rough guide? this is for white & case btw.- 19vanessat

Is it worth applying to a firm (in this case Dentons) about a month before their rolling TC application closes? It's fairly large and takes quite a good % of trainees from direct TC route... Or would I be better off focusing on other applications? Any advice would be appreciated!- 19vanessat

Does anyone know how case studies are graded? I did a typical M&A one at Ashurst but I'm not sure if there's some key criteria - Is there a "correct" answer as to which target should be acquired by the buyer? or does the grading look at how well you justified your choice? (By criteria I mean...- 19vanessat
