    No problem I am sure you will get them as well. What university are you at if you do not mind me asking. Your applications must have been really well drafted then.

    I am still in the process of applying to them. How did you find the application? There isn’t much to research them on - no TCLA law firm insight, I couldn’t find anything on C&P.
