[QUOTE="Gottagetthroughthis101, post: 237682, member: 40779"] [B][U]Update on Applications[/U] This was a tough week for me emotionally and physically. I did not get the applications in that I wanted so I will need to apply to the DTC for some of the firms- this does make it a lot more competitive but I'm hoping for the best. Sometimes you just need to be kind to yourself. I was just about to submit a last minute Osborne Clarke application but then I realised I am so burnt out that I should just leave it, especially as my application would be rushed. But on a brighter note, I received my first ever AC!! I haven't had to do one before with other firms, apart from a proof reading exercise so this is feeling really scary. But, I am so grateful as I really thought I messed up!
