    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2023-24

    Just wondering what people’s thoughts are, I’m pending post app for two firms where the majority of applications seem to be PFOd or progressed to VI/assessment. As I’ve been neither, do we reckon I’m on hold until they go through the next stage results and decide whether to progress me or not...

    Not sure about this cycle but last cycle there were ACs into March with about a week or two notice before the dates, certainly wouldn't rule anything out from AG if you're post test!

    I am notoriously poor at WG so every chance they are just waiting to give me the PFO and are prioritising the people who actually passed hahaha

    I struggled quite a bit, was planning on maybe discussing legal tech in my application and found no info whatsoever so had to give up that idea 😂

    Test was honestly quite long I thought! Bit more of a rigorous maths section than other tests but still doable in my opinion. Don’t believe it was automatic as the email said: We are pleased to confirm that you have been successful in getting through to the next stage of the process. Honestly...

    Anyone heard from Withers post test? I know applications are still open so wondering if we have to wait until after they close for any more info!

    I’ve also not heard back, and last time I asked on here several others hadn’t heard back either. I think it’s just a waiting game with Simmons

    I really enjoy Ziplaw and think the premium subscription is worth it. Watson’s daily too is very quick and digestible

    Yeah this is my first cycle but I’d heard it was a lot quicker last year. Maybe just another firm struggling with increased numbers this year?

    From my experience, I could only open the task at a certain time and it was only open for 30 minutes through an online platform - I had to write directly into the platform text box my answer, the submissions automatically saved over x period of time. Other than that no active supervision, I...

    Anyone else still somehow pending with AG London post-app? Should I give up? I just don’t understand why they haven’t rejected me considering they’re inviting people to ACs now 😂

    I know there was an AC yesterday and my AC date is tomorrow, those were the only two dates available for me to select from so I assume they are doing invites in stages!
