Okay phew, I'm not the only one! I think people had completed the case study before I was invited to VI last year, so they're probably just doing it in stages and we're still being considered! Hope you hear good news soon :)

To be honest I'm not sure how grad rec feel about this but I doubt it would be a deal breaker if your application was strong

Sometimes forms rearrange experiences to group legal/non-legal together, maybe this is the reason?

Hey - if you email grad rec explaining how much extra time you usually get and with evidence, eg a report, then I’m sure they will allow you extra time. I’ve done this will acs at different City firms and never been refused. Good luck with your ac :)

Hogan Lovells Application 2020/21

Hey - you have to email grad rec asking for a copy, they don't automatically send it. I requested mine in the morning and received it later that day, so they are quite quick! :)
