Dechert and Akin Gump rejections this morning, got Links rejection last Friday afternoon too :D Just thought I'd ask if this seems like a generic rejection from Akin Gump as I applied on the deadline (e.g. I know Daniel had his AC before the application deadline) and it suggests they would look...- DavidJC

I'm not sure if it's the same for London, but when I attended an insight evening at Dentons in Glasgow, grad rec told me that they do not review direct TC applications on a rolling basis- DavidJC

Did you subscribe to Finimize Premium? I've had the app for ages but I've not explored their packs at all as I've been rather busy and getting by with FT articles and Daily Briefing so far- DavidJC

They've suggested 45 mins for the SST and 50 mins for the VRT, I think I spent total about 1 hour 15 minutes? I didn't really prepare for it, the SST is the same as any other and I just treated the VRT like the LNAT, essentially a comprehension and critical thinking test.- DavidJC

Based on what Jessica's previously said about first-stage screening, TW's website, and the lack of even a test invite suggests that I failed on academics. I've had mitigating circumstances at uni in 1st and 2nd year but my uni only classifies degrees based on 3rd and 4th years so I'm still on...- DavidJC

I called them since they never responded to my emails and I said I hadn't heard back at all since I applied and I had heard they were doing ACs already then an hour later I got a rejection email. I didn't even get to speak with graduate recruitment, it was someone else who had answered the phone- DavidJC

On the deadline day, I'm not too bummed by this one cos in terms of practice areas Ashurst just didn't feel right to me (probably cos the areas I like got shadowed by the strengths of the merger partner)- DavidJC
