Stephenson Harwood Question
Personally, I'd say it's referring to special requirements/mitigating circumstances/particular issues that you want to raise about your application (anomalous grades etc.), so you can just put "N/A" if it doesn't apply. That said, I have seen students use it to briefly mention an aspect of the...- Jaysen

Summer Vacation Scheme Thread 2019
Yep, turning down schemes does happen. It's obviously not best practice, but you shouldn't find yourself in any trouble unless you want to do a training contract at that firm in the future. If you do prefer JD, I'd go for it (I'd just factor in their current inflexibility as factor against them).- Jaysen

Summer Vacation Scheme Thread 2019
Any chance to interview for a direct TC? They would not consider your application at all next year? That's not standard practice, but JD is a firm that's very particular when it comes to motivation for applying to them.- Jaysen

'Where else have you applied and why?' Interview Question
I wouldn't necessarily say best, but yes, separating through practice areas is a good way to distinguish the firms. You can add broader points after that, especially if the other firms are also good in litigation. If you've met the firm before, that's also a good way to distinguish it from...- Jaysen
