I feel like firms are moving towards being really respectful and understanding of people with mental health struggles- especially now after the pandemic where pretty much everyone has struggled in one way or another. I really don’t think having a mental health issue will disadvantage you in...- jd3447

I Honestly think the oxbridge process is often just as random as law recruitment🤣 so feels like a bit of an unfair q.

Don’t worry they don’t send a confirmation email (I double checked mine a few days ago, they said there’s no confirmation email for completing the WG and that they had received the results automatically) x- jd3447
