I think mishcon are doing ac's until start of march. so wouldn't worry yet. also they give you about a week from the invite to do the ac

 

[lucyindia]

A bit unrelated but my dream firm posted a vacancy (4PQE) for my dream department, literally all I ever want to do and it's just so inspiring to be reassured that this exists and that perhaps one day I can have that role!!!

 

[kuuks_]

anyone heard from Travers Smith or Stephenson Harwood yet? Or have an idea when they will be getting back?

Do you know if they’ve already started acs for summer?

Paul, Weiss PFO. That leaves only 7 firms I still have "live" applications for.

I simply don't know what's going wrong, only 2 people in my university got a higher score than me in my degree, and I have all distinctions in my law conversion as well. I put a lot of effort into these apps as well. I just don't know what more I could really be doing at this point, just how much luck do you need??

Same here

do you think they're doing it by surname alphabetical order

I’m still waiting to hear. I saw one person write that they received a rejection last week when I asked

 

[tc2026]

I think so, yes! I am not 100% but I think last week was the final ac week for spring (or this may be the last spring week), so I assume summer AC's are starting either now or in the coming weeks

Applied on deadline - P,W summer PFO. Did anybody get an email telling them to reapply next year? It was in my friend's mail, but not in mine 🫠
