I think people are so focussed on the topic or making it sound good they forget the basics, spelling (spell the firm's name correctly), clear structure...2. Be careful using GPT, while its great for certain things, over or incorrect use can make your application sound like anyone else's.3. Spend the time on the applications you really want to work at, it REALLY comes across4. It is not a test of legal knowledge but your awareness of what is going on commercially and how this feeds into a commercial law firms work.Application forms are difficult and the above make it sound simple but they are essential to a successful application. ALSO, every firm looks for something different, it's really important to understand the firm you are applying to. Hope that helps and good luck!</blockquote>
