Is there anyone who is successful in applying to Freshfields? Please react if you are because I am seeking some advice for writing the personal statement, in preparation for the summer TC application window. Thanks!

Does anyone know if Dentons host their ACs virtually or in person? I received an email from the Grad Recruit confirming that their ACs will be held through June-July. The problem is I may not be in the UK during that time......

I believe that if you are not in the UK they probably can arrange it to be virtual for you. I have heard of many international candidates who did this (albeit at other firms)!

Hello, quick question. When writing one of my submissions, I wrote something under mitigating circumstances that I believed to be true regarding my education (this is going back 8 years now), but I realised actually happened after and is not applicable. I realise that if successful, they'll be taking into account something that had not actually impacted my grades, and I wouldn't want that to be the case. Should I email graduate recruitment and let them know I have made an error?

I’d wait until you know whether you are invited to the next stage of the process, and then update them at that point if needed.

At that stage you should definitely inform them though.
