So sorry to hear this, do you mind me asking when you applied?PFO for Slaughters post app, I spent so long on it as well and was really proud of it
It's still relatively early in the cycle, keep going! I was in a similar position at Christmas last year and then everything turned around in February/March of this year. Give yourself a bit of a break, keep the faith and then keep going when you're mentally fit again 👊just got a pfo from NRF after initial app... no idea where im going wrong and truly losing hope this cycle
What did you apply for and when did you apply?PFO for Slaughters post app, I spent so long on it as well and was really proud of it
Agreed with this - give yourself a break over christmas then come back to apps with a fresh perspective
I think 2 days before the deadline
(which i guess wasn't giving myself the best chance lol)
I just did my Simmons VI and it was actually so bad I just want to crawl into a hole... I want to cry thinking that someone from grad rec will actually be watching that lol. Also even though it was quite simple I just couldn't get my head around the written exercise and how to actually do it so that was equally as bad rip
Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to me - i really do appreciate the comments made. Ive really felt the self-doubt and general negativity start to build up due to my lack of progression thus far and all the rejections ive been getting. Its nice to get some perspective - sending good vibes to everyone, thanks alot and super glad to have this forum!
Has anyone received the actual watson glaser test link yet from Baker McKenzie? I received an email couple days ago saying I’ve been progressed. But haven’t received no test link yet??
Baker McKenzie VI invite and Akin Gump WG
It took around 3 or 4 days for me to receive the test link so I wouldn't worry

Hi, I’m applying to eversheds this after being rejected last year. I have used the same examples (the questions are below) for two of the questions, that I used last year but I have made major changes and think the responses are stronger for it. I also think the examples used are the best one I have. Do you think this is an acceptable approach or would they expect something completely different? (Not sure if relevant but my university grades have also dramatically improved in the last year)
1- When have you worked towards an ambitious goal? As part of your answer, please describe how you tackled this goal, what set-backs you faced and what energised you about the situation.
2- When have you delivered a piece of work where quality was an important factor? As part of your answer, please describe why quality was important to you, what approaches you took to help you deliver and what you enjoyed?
