LPC or SQE?
Many thanks, Jessica! To be honest, I never considered the GDL/LPC route outside a TC contract. I applied for TCs in order to (1) avoid self-funding the QLTS and (2) minimize the risk of qualifying through QLTS and then not being able to find an associate position because I would compete with...- Yoryis

2020-21 Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion
Hi Jessica, A somehow related question. As a law graduate from a university in the EU, I was wondering if adding percentages would help in this case. At my uni to get a first somebody has to be in the top 5% of the class (we were about 400 students per year). Does a first also mean top 5-10% of...- Yoryis

The automated feedback was starting with "By way of support, we are delighted to share the attached personalised feedback report...". First time a law firm sent me an email with a "delighted" in it. I will not bother them even if it takes them 3 months to PFO me. Jokes aside, I completed my...- Yoryis

We are the weaker party and this certainly raises the threshold required to find immorality. I wish you get at least two offers and then you reject them!- Yoryis

Commercial Awareness Discussion Thread
Why would you have your shares just sit there? By lending them you can get some extra income in the meantime (ie the fees payable by the borrower). Of course, there is the risk of not getting the shares back because the counterparty is unable to buy them back (what happened), but in normal times...- Yoryis
