[QUOTE="wwood, post: 12434, member: 1551"] Hi guys! I notice that the vac scheme thread pretty much centers on practical tips e.g. how to do well, what not to do, what to do etc., but there is no post on specific experience! The vac scheme diaries are great, but they focus more on the legal experience. I am wondering whether there are any personal stories on failed vac schemes - or how a vac schemer turned an unpleasant experience into a pleasant one. I do have one failed scheme - I will share it with you guys soon :) Meanwhile, I heard from my friends that a girl was isolated by the lawyers who share a room with her - but she persisted, befriending other lawyers in other departments. She even went as far to request accompanying a lawyer to a due diligence trip (which no one likes to go generally). In the end, she got a TC offer. A huge thank you to the amazing members of the forum who scored TCs ultimately at their favourite firms for their amazing advice! I'm quite interested in knowing more from others on the forum though, and I believe it might be useful or encouraging to those who are having a rough time! [/QUOTE]
