[QUOTE="eleven14og, post: 182054, member: 18458"] Hi all I'm back!! Haven't updated my page for over 5 months and yes I am still here. For those of you who are still actively applying cycle after cycles, I'm with you and fingers crossed we all get a TC this cycle!!🤞🏻 So first good news, I got accepted to a LLM programme in London and will start later this month. Honestly I was not expecting an offer from them cuz I thought I wasn't good enough. It still feels surreal to me till this day😭 But this is a good sign and a much needed confidence boost!! Not so great news, I managed to secure nothing last cycle and paused my direct TC apps cuz I couldn't take it anymore. I took some break, visited family, and I am now working on a short-term project before my LLM starts. This cycle is my last shot so I'm hoping it's my final cycle. I thought about self-funding the SQE and some of my friends are doing it. But I feel like it's a lot of financial burden so it definitely wouldn't be my first choice. For this cycle, I aim to do the following: - Send 30+ Spring/Summer VS applications - Attend as many in-person open days/evenings as possible - Become more organised and not submit applications last minute!! I am still figuring out which firms I wish to apply to atm. I feel like through these many cycles I'm now ok with everything lol. But one red flag for me is poor culture/toxic work environment. So attending open days is important. That's about it for now and I will post more in the coming weeks. Looking forward to going back to uni and starting this new cycle🤩🤩 [/QUOTE]
