    Can I just ask how did this happen? after I hit submit on my application page, I was sent a link to my email which said only if I click on it, my application will actually be submitted. Once I clicked I then received a verification email which confirmed my application was submitted.

    I am wondering now if you didn’t click on the link, perhaps your application wasn’t even sent at all the first time around?
    I had already confirmed my email before cause I submitted a diff application with vantage 🥲

    I’m really excited to announce that I’ve recently accepted a TC offer! This was my second cycle and I’d almost given up hope.
    The adage that you only need one yes is so true! To everyone that is waiting to hear back from firms or getting ready to apply in the next cycle please don’t loose heart. If anyone wants any advice please feel free to reach out I’m more than happy to share any insights or advice that I have 😊

    For all those who did the Hogan Lovells WG, after how many days did you find out about your outcome? Also, are they sending out only rejections for WG first or are they also letting candidates know if you passed the test?
    Also, since HL is on rolling basis has anyone received AC invites?
    I did the WG five days before the deadline and haven’t heard back yet.

    Also they don’t let you know why you failed if you get a PFO, you’ll just know that you passed the WG if you get an overall pass - but no specific info on your WG score unfortunately. So there might be a scenario where your application would have been good enough but you didn’t meet the threshold for the WG, and you’ll never know.
