    Ahh nws- you don't have to answer of course but mind me asking where you saw that VIs were being sent out? Would defo be unusual if they were reviewing already despite the non-rolling deadline lol

    As long as you've kept grad rec in the loop and are making an effort to ensure the documents are forwarded you will be absolutely fine! It would be totally unreasonable for them to renege because of this, especially when you're demonstrably willing to sort it out at short notice. Go smash it! :)

    I have been to a bunch of these sorts of events- honestly the best thing to do is simply be normal and polite. If you have something you want to ask about then you should lead the convo towards that but I wouldn't shoehorn in a random careers question for the sake of it because that is going to...

    Hey mate, congrats on getting to AC. Honestly in my experience the prospect of someone asking you to talk more is reasonably small, if anything it tends to be the opposite in that it's difficult to get a word in because everyone wants to say something lol. Best thing to do is to form an opinion...

    Milbank vac scheme offer :) Just wanted to drop in and say thank you to this community for making me feel less alone through the application cycle- to quote Olivia Rodrigo, it's brutal out here, and it's hard to talk to people you know irl about this sort of thing (it feels like prying!!) so...

    Hey guys! Currently doing an application which asks for a covering letter (to be typed into the application form) in addition to questions on the application form which cover aspects of what I would put on a covering letter ("why firm X?"/"why commercial law?")- does anyone have any guidance on...

    Hi guys- potentially a stupid question (can you tell I'm an overthinker? lol) but does the Watson Glaser collect scores automatically? That is to say, if I have completed all the questions and have proceeded to check my answers, and while I'm checking my answer the timer finishes and I do not...

    Sorry for late response! Cambridge’s (my university) degree is qualifying I’m pretty sure, so I’m guessing that’s all good? Not to speak for all BAs of course
