    Any chance that Latham is still sending out VI invites at this stage or should I expect PFO for spring? How long was it between the first VI batch and the second? This may give me slight hope lol

    Does anyone know whether there is any difference in White and Case for the spring vac scheme and the summer vac scheme? Do they take on the same amount of people or does the summer one have more places?

    For anyone who has applied for the Spring scheme at Latham and Watkins and got a VI, when did you apply? I have applied before Christmas and did the test on Dec 28th but still no update, should I expect PFO?

    I'm in your same position, but Freshfields is non-rolling and so they review all applications once the deadline is passed!

    Hey, does anyone have any tips or info in general for the Latham & Watkins SJT test post-app for their London VS? I can't seem to find much and apparently there is a benchmark to pass in order for the application form to be reviewed at all
