    I thought it was the unofficial rule that people choose law because they can’t do maths? 😂 I’m sure they wouldn’t discount you on that alone 👍🏻 good luck!

    Linklaters got in touch today to offer me a spot on next week’s OD as they’d made space - can’t make it unfortunately but nice of them to try 👌🏻

    So I was accepted onto Linklaters OD but they didn’t receive my 3(!) emails confirming details - and now have rejected me as they’re full! I’ve sent them proof I responded but they say they have no spaces left so can’t do anything which is disappointing. Pretty annoyed rn..!
