Update ✨

I received a TI with Akin which is crazy cos I completed the test 3 hours ago (so haven’t even received my report)🥺

I am so excited about how this application cycle is progressing. I also realise that I’ll probably just make one last application to Orrick and maybe one other because it’s becoming quite draining managing work with other commitments. If I fail to get anything else I’ll make direct TC applications to Macfarlanes, W&C and Ashurst in the summer!
