[QUOTE="LM, post: 48057, member: 9535"] Hi NK. So, I undertook the GDL from September to June so I only had limited experience of juggling studies while completing vacation schemes. However, I do have experience in applying for Firms while undertaking the GDL which may prove useful. In short, I would say that right now, time is your friend. You have identified an upcoming clash and now is the time to get ahead on your reading. Further, give yourself enough breathing space to block off the time needed for the vacation schemes and TC interviews. There would be nothing worse than to partake in a vacation scheme and not give it your all, while also letting your studies slip. Maybe this means working / studying on a few weekends? Maybe this means asking classmates for notes? No challenge is insurmountable and as long as you plan ahead and remain ahead, you can manage both. Best of luck! [/QUOTE]
