    Importance of modular grades (non law graduate) for VS for US/MC?

    Generally speaking a 2.1 overall does satisfy most City firm requirements, but I would think modules as low as a 31 would raise some red flags for a lot of, if not most, firms.

    Yeah that makes sense. Since they have already sent out VI invites is it then safe to assume that anyone who hasn’t got one is PFO? I thought I was safe submitting it today (6 days before the deadline) but I guess it was a waste of time

    Yeah they are rolling, but I submitted my VS application to them today and it does clearly say that whilst they review on a rolling basis, they won’t make any decisions until after the deadline. So it’s surprising to see that this is evidently not the case

    I thought they don’t make decisions until after the deadline? That’s literally what the email they sent me after I submitted my application said

    They are closed. The deadline for Freshfields Winter VS was early September. I believe all Magic Circle winter scheme applications have closed by now.

    Hi everyone, I'm trying to figure out whether Mishcon recruits on a rolling basis, and I find this answer on their website very confusing: "We don't recruit on a rolling basis and whilst we do read all Vacation Scheme applications that have been submitted, we would recommend that you look to...

    Herbert Smith Freehills VS response help.

    All the successful past applications I've seen have answered this question in a completely non law related manner. They are really trying to gauge your interests and learn more about you, whilst evaluating your writing style. I personally wouldn't submit this but it's up to you.
