What do you mean by "repeated sentence"? Do you mean like you accidentally copy and pasted one of your sentences, or do you mean you used the same phrase twice in the same paragraph?I have just noticed a repeated sentence in one of the applications i had written. It is not a typo but reads really clunky and is a repeated phrase one sentence later. would this be enough for the application to be rejected?? gutted as i spent ages on this one(

I think that's probably okay since its not actually a typo and definitely wont be an "automatic rejection"!

It will be considered a proof reading error - if there are other errors then collectively that might be enough for the firm to say no but it really depends on what the other errors might be and also the strength of the rest of your form.I have just noticed a repeated sentence in one of the applications i had written.

wondering about this too? just the personal statement without any formatting or title in a word document? what's the recommended front?
I think it is okay as saw someone in the forum earlier this year said it is okay.

Are you sure you can reapply? I would check the firm’s eligibility criteria first given you are reapplying in the same cycle.
I think it is challenging to try and demonstrate change/development in 3-4 months. If you are able to reapply, then it’s really about showing what you have done since the scheme that would show development in the areas the feedback highlighted.
Hi all! New member of the TCLA community here. I submitted a direct TC application to Slaughter & May last week. I was wondering if there’s a rough timeline by which one can expect to hear back out an interview or rejection. Most firms have a rough timeline available so I’m curious why Slaughter doesn’t. Thank you!
I completed the test on the 27th of JuneHey congratulations! When did you complete your test?
Nothing from Withers (post online test) and RPC? Also hearing White & Case have filled a lot of their TC's with successful Vac scheme students
