In addition to the suggestions above, I’d also look at AA4S. It was recommended to me on this forum and I’ve booked it for this summer - it looks comfortable enough, it’s a 25-30min bus away from the City, and it’s a pretty good deal (for London) at £200 a week!

Hey @Jessica Booker, I’m torn between accepting a spring scheme with a firm or requesting to move my scheme to summer.
I’m an LLM student so the spring scheme would ‘disrupt’ my studies a little, but at the same time the spring scheme is only one week long while the summer one is two weeks.
My main concern is that since spring is the ‘first batch’ of students it might be easier to secure a TC then, rather than in summer when they would have already granted some people TCs in spring.
But at the same time, the spring scheme is shorter, so there is less time to impress.
TIA 😊

I messed up one question in my TC interview, would you say that will ruin my chances at getting the opportunity? Hate this :/ Depending on the firm, what the question was, and how badly you messed it up. If it makes you feel better, I also messed up a few questions during my AC and this was...www.thecorporatelawacademy.com
You may also want to look at the train/tube lines that come into near the office (such as Thameslink/Metropolitan line/Elizabeth Line) but that take you outside of London quickly. You’ll find cheaper accommodation but can often find quick ways to get into London. Just always worthwhile checking the peak day return train fare and adding that to your weekly spend to see if it is worthwhile.
Some of the private student halls tend to do reasonable deals for short term summer let’s - like this one: https://prestigestudentliving.com/s...don/charles-morton-court/premier-ensuite-plus
Hey, I have called WC last week as I need to sort out my graduation dates so wanted to know when we would hear back, they said on Tuesday it would be in a week's time. So could be any time this week (fingers crossed!!)Hey - definitely sent it to their direct grad recruitment email. They have responded before quite quickly.
It was this email:
[email protected]
If anyone else can email too, that will be grand!
Hi there! You can have a look at the practice areas they excel in and rank highly here: https://www.chambersstudent.co.uk/fieldfisher/true-picture/137/1##firm-rankings. They also put out a press release discussing their ranking as of 2022: https://www.fieldfisher.com/en/insights/increased-rankings-for-fieldfisher-in-2022-chamber.
Competitors are firms like Addleshaw Goddard, Taylor Wessing, DWF, Osborne Clarke to name a few. One way you can identify who their competition is is by picking a few practice areas that Fieldfisher excels in and looking at firms which also rank in the same tier.
Hope this helps!
Not entirely sure as it might depend on the firm but I would say email
has anybody heard from Farrer post-ac today? Think I remember grad recruitment saying this week would be the week we hear back x
That would be great icl 😭 but I was told last week to wait 2-3 weeks for an answer so I doubt it but you never know!!

Still waiting on it - they mentioned it would be sometime this week
