That determination and resilience will definitely serve you well this application cycle.It’s also great to hear that you are being intentional with your applications - focusing on firms that are the right fit for you is a great plan, and it really does help when drafting tailored applications. Making it to Bristows’ virtual interview is a huge achievement in itself, and a sign that you are taking all the right steps!Wishing you the best of luck with your applications and SQE1 in January - I’m also sitting in Jan, so I understand how difficult it is! You’ve got the mindset, self-awareness, and motivation - so you’re already halfway there! We’re all rooting for you, and looking forward to seeing your updates this cycle! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
