Those applying to AO, how did you list all the university modules when the total number of them exceeds 25 (Gosh I hate AOs' application portal)

I didn't have this problem as I didn't exceed this number, but maybe send an email to HR? I share your hate for the portal haha...I ended up filling in the form 3 times because it didn't save any of my entries even though I had pressed save to return to the form later.

I am happy for you..did you find out on the portal?
Thanks! I received two emails - one from the Grad Rec team and then another with a link to the portal for the VI. I have accepted another TC offer though, so told them I was withdrawing from the process so they could offer it to someone else ! I hope you hear something soon :)

I’m sure you’re all sick of me asking about Macfarlanes every other day on the forum but for once I bring some good news.

I just got offered a training contract!!

What a journey.

Just knew this was your time and there is no one more deserving! Absolutely thrilled for you - this has literally made my week!

Hi

Has anyone on this forum had any experience applying to the Government Legal Department? I have an Assessment Day in a few weeks. Any tips or guidance would be greatly appreciated.
