    LLM at London Universities (particularly at LSE)

    Speaking of Forage, do people tend to put the certificates etc on their LinkedIn? I don't know if they are considered 'legitimate' enough to do so? Any thoughts on this?

    Thanks so much! Well done for getting to the final hurdle. You don't happen to know until when they are doing ACs, do you? & yikes, maybe I should send them an email - I got the report at the beginning of Feb.

    Oh right. Sorry, I'm talking about TC though so timelines will likely be different.

    Ah, okay, because I applied on the deadline I thought the delay in sending the WG might just be because of that, but you applied around the same time and received the WG... So not feeling grrrreatttt... :(

    Hi there, new to TCLA and also going mad waiting for FF... Haven't been sent a WG despite receiving one almost immediately last cycle.
