Nope, I also didn't hear from nrf

That's not true, it wasn't timed. The only sections which were timed were the ones who expressly said so such as the VIs, it said so at the start of the exercise.

What I wrote was meant to be a question

Can I ask if you checked on the Apply 4 Law portal for this? Did it change from the "completed" to "reviewed" there?

hey- does anyone know if people have received CMS AC offers yet?

 

[M&Amakesmyday]

Can I just confirm that Clyde & Co's app does not have any essay questions this year? And does this mean I have to the Forage virtual internship to stand out?

hey- does anyone know if people have received CMS AC offers yet?

I think they are only offering to First Steps and Brand Ambassadors first (similar to DLA Piper). We will probably hear back later this month regarding ACs.

Yes, there are not any essay questions for Clydes this year, instead its quite similar to the Linklaters application process where there's an interactive online simulation element that requires some video questions.
Clydes have space for four work experience elements which you can add detail to to help you stand out beyond the VI.
They do ask whether or not you have completed the virtual internship, but I highly doubt it'll be a case where they reject candidates based on whether or not they have done it- not everyone has the time or resources to complete the online internships, they are very time consuming so I wouldn't worry!
