Honestly, I can't even imagine getting a tc anymore. This is my third application cycle, and while I am doing all I can and I know I have made progress etc etc but I can't imagine making it out of this process. I will keep going because I really want this. But oh the horrors.Clifford Chance rejection.- Not at all surprised. They are super consistent lol. I am not really upset about this. I've just come to terms with the fact there is something about my application they do not like.Willkie submitted.- I realised I could've spoken about the Mastercard case too late. But it is what it is. I hope the rest of my answer was specific enough.Latham Watkins submitted just online assessment left.- I just realised there is a video interview question in their online assessment and that sent shivers down my spine. Going to spend my evening researching the toughest questions I would hate to come up against: trends in law, big case we've worked on, why do clients choose us. I really hope its some easy competency or strengths question. I am not the strongest soldier.Then, tomorrow morning, I will start/finish the online assessment. The amount of fear a video interview sends through me is not normal.I wonder if part of the trick is just the way I deliver the answer; maybe if I focus on managing appearance and time, they could potentially overlook a basic answer? Who knows.Reed Smith- Started but then momentarily paused. I think I am going to focus on White & Case and Paul Weiss. I want to have Paul Weiss reviewed by TCLA so I am focusing on Paul Weiss.I should have submitted more apps, but I got sick for a week, and then the winter blues came with a side of 'you will never be successful', so as you can imagine, I was a little down. But with the horrors, there are joys, and I truly feel lucky to have a passion worth fighting for. I can't believe it's corporate law, but alas, it is.Remember guys, all you need is just one yes. Maybe the next app is the one.</blockquote>
