    TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

    I sent my Freshfields app on Sunday but have just realised I entered my overall university score incorrectly. Does anyone have an email address for grad rec? Or any advice? It doesn’t let you amend anything on Vantage and I can’t see an email address on the confirmation. Opinions appreciated...
