Is there any chance you could clarify whether you think they're asking for a 200-250 word answer about my preferred practice areas and...

    I'm really sorry! I wish you more success on any other applications. Could I ask if this was post-app or post-test?

    Congratulations! That's fantastic! I did it last year and I think I used some of TCLA's free case analysis resources in prep, and watched preparation videos that were made by one of their employees on Instagram, and that prepared me pretty well for that part. I didn't pass on account of my...

    I seem to have four moderates and two higher ones, but I wouldn't base whether you'll pass on what other people have as we don't know which ones they place the most importance on.

    17th then, my mistake! I just knew I applied a day after they opened, and must have got the dates mixed up. I just received the WG today. I think you're fine, a friend of mine applied towards the end of Oct and got the VS and then TC, so it's fine if you haven't got around to it yet!
