    @Andrei Radu Hi :) Please could I quickly check something with you. Firstly, firms that are currently advertising for a TC commencing September 2027, will they want trainees to start SQE studies in 2026 or 2025? Secondly, do you know how likely it is that despite advertising for a 2027...

    Yesss that's so true re the test. The rejection email doesn't give away much as to why I was rejected, whether I met the test threshold or not. Do you think firms would email you your score if you requested it?

    Is it worth applying to Withers DTC if you got rejected for the VS? Legit not much has changed in my application except that I will be a paralegal soon, but I doubt one more role is going to improve my application.

    Does anyone know if Hogan Lovells will open a shorter application window during the summer for direct TC (London)? I think they did this last year but I cannot remember if that was for outside of London.

    Haven't heard from Simmons since the online test -- is it safe to assume I am on the PFO list? I don't know if anyone knows when their ACs are and stuff.

    Mishcon VI I deffo effed up. I don't know why I even checked the message from my viewing organiser to find out they have signed the contract for someone else and i wanted the place 😭😭 Only have myself to blame. I probably came across as a depressed potato. Oh well. Reject me based on 3 minutes...

    Ooooh thank you for this. I think more than a part-time arrangement, what I would ideally like is something remote. Very useful to know BARBRI is a remote online course. I suppose if I get enrolled onto a course, I could always check with the firm closer to time

    A bit of a random question... Also not sure why I am worrying about this considering I don't even have a TC offer yet. But, you know, manifesting and whatnot.... Does anyone know if it's possible to do the SQE part-time/remotely? The paralegals at my firm are working full-time AND sitting...
