TCLA Direct Training Contract Applications Discussion Thread 2025-26

So They’re not allowed to ask for advice if they don’t share the AC dates? That’s unfair.

People share what they’re comfortable with if they don’t want to they don’t have to Just wait like the rest us to find out if we’re successful or not.

Also what’s up with these snidey good luck messages at the end this is the second one I’ve seen.

Let’s not talk about Snidey Mr. bullying Chris Brown for having the same account. I was being genuine and hoping for transparency, as we all here help eachother out, keep eachother posted on updates, but I can understand if they don’t wanna share certain details. This process is extremely tough, I mean every word when I say goodluck.

Exactly, so stop pestering the guy. Be empathetic, things happen, you don’t know circumstances and he could totally be a different person as he says.

Hey everyone - let's keep this on topic. It's okay for applicants not to share dates if they don't want to

Congrats! Would appreciate any transparency though atleast in consideration for others. Just think it’s convenient to gatekeep dates, whiles also wanting advice on AC. Best of luck tho!!

Hello there.
I’d rather not share thank you.

Your best best wishes did seem ill wished as I would not share the dates.

Yeah I understand. It’s easy to think that way but if you want to PM me, I can share some insights on AC from the resources I have. This process is gruelling, I’ve been at it 3 cycles now and have always extended help, so yeah apologies if it came across that way!

I lowkey wish I was Chris Brown, he was on a roll in the last cycle. Rkid was securing offers from a bunch of firms like it was light work. Meanwhile I am out here struggling with the basics lmao. It’s a tough gig applying to law firms. :/

Whilst I am using his account (for reasons which I won’t explain in detail), we are different people and come from different backgrounds. Not sure what feathers he ruffled before he left the forum but can we plz be nice to each other on here. : )​
