Milbank WG invite. Does anyone know if this is automatic? I don't see how it could be with the nature of the first test and I did my test yesterday morning and got it just now.

Just had my feedback call! Feeling a lot more reassured now haha 🤞
OK LMAO just got PFO from HSF Kramer - devastated
Edit: Just got an email from Links (event ads) but thought I was going to get 2 PFOs from my fave firms at the same time and same day and was about to have a heart attack

HSFK Spring PFO (passed benchmark early Dec)
Congrats!! I did my first test almost 2 weeks ago so i guess its a PFO now
It’s probs not automatic cos I did my first test on Wed (late night) and have heard nothing. Although I did apply for Summer VS so idk whether that’s the reason for it.

Lol hahah sorry
it was my AOS AC feedback call, feeling reassured cos they said that it would take something really really bad or dramatic for one not to convert the VS
But now my mood has been dampened... man I wasn't expecting HSF Kramer like this
Whattttttt
I’ve still not heard back from milbank for 3 weeks after doing stage 1.
I applied for lev fin is anyone else that’s waiting also lev fin 😭😭 or those progressed what did you apply for.
Hey sorry about that
( me and you bothCan I ask if the email you got mentioned that they look highly upon grades and then also prizes and scholarships etc. too? I think it might've been my grades that let me down... sigh I should've went to less open days last year and focused more on school 😭

Sorry to hear that. Hope you get better ones. I applied HSF for summer, fingers crossed!
Thank you!! Yes, you do get a break! There's a button you press when you're ready to proceed to the next question, so you can take the time you need before moving on
I also just got HSF. My dream firm. I've got a first from Oxbridge and did a 6 week internship as a legal research intern for a charity, also did a week as a legal intern in house and i volunteer for a pro bono clinic. Their feedback felt like a slap in the face ! I'm also a first gen uni and grew up in social housing with a single parent. What more can I do??!
Most AOS Vacs have a 100% conversion rate or very close to that, as reported previously by vac schemers. You'll be totally fine, you got this! Take a well-deserved break and focus on smashing your degree. Best of luck!!
I went to one of their open days and they seemed very fixated on the consistent 2:1s across all modules being their minimum. It put me off applying despite making it onto an in-person open day.Hey sorry about that

If you made it onto AOS AC I can't see it being your academics for HSFK because AOS is also quite strict? I could be wrong though.
Thank you!! Yes I've been hearing that but I can't help but be slightly worried haha - but HR said that for the recent winter vac they gave everyone but 1 person a TC so that helped reassure me more.
I'm debating whether I should just stop with apps and pray I convert A&O and focus on school...
Just got HSF PFO, i feel deflated honestly
