[QUOTE="pickyportkey, post: 192621, member: 27048"] Hello everyone! I'm currently doing my LLM at NUS in Singapore after having finished my LLB in the UK this year. Posting my daily progress here, just to keep myself accountable throughout this so very tiring process as a student applying from outside the UK 🙂↔️ [B][U]No luck so far, with PFOs from:[/U][/B] Clifford Chance Pinsent Masons Direct TC A&O Shearman Direct TC [B][U]Waiting to hear back from:[/U][/B] - CMS TC (London) - submitted 28/11, received WG on 29/11 [AHHH hoping for VI soon, but I also hate VIs] - Linklaters Singapore-London TC [honestly don't think I met the requirements (studying in the UK) ahah, but applied anyway] - Slaughter & May TC - submitted 29/11 - Mayer Brown TC - submitted 30/10 It doesn't help that applying for most vacation schemes is now ruled out for me ahah. But I'm more frustrated because every year, I tell myself that I will work on submitting my applications early. And every year, something gets in the way. NUS this year has been 10x more rigorous than studying in the UK, and its been so difficult to dedicate time to this because of submissions and exams every week for the past two months. BUT, hoping to be really productive this winter break! Hopefully, this tardiness won't cost me... ⭐️ [B][U]This week, I'm aiming to submit:[/U][/B] - Reed Smith Summer VS - Sidley Summer VS - Macfarlanes Summer VS - Hogan Lovells Direct TC Note: Trying to also get my sleep schedule together at the same time lol, so going to try and avoid burning that late night oil so I can be productive during the day instead 🧐 [/QUOTE]
