    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    Guys, this cycle has been worse than terrible. Now I'm clueless as to what to do this summer! Does anyone have any ideas for non-commercial law or non-law work experience that could benefit next year's apps? I don't want to have nothing on my CV this year. @Jessica Booker any advice..?

    I really hope so. If not then they hated me for abbreviating Paul, Weiss to PW after the first time. I swear I saw some of the associates/Paul using that in the AMA but it is what it is.

    Haven't got a response from Paul, Weiss and feeling extremely disheartened. Poured my entire soul into that app, I've never written anything so good. And I checked grammar God knows how many times!
