I see how disappointing. I had to redo the VI 3 times because of technical issues so only submitted it on Jan 10th but would you say it's still reasonable to assume a PFO?

I’m afraid I don’t know in your case.

 

[AlegalA]

Good luck with your AC! When did you complete your test and manage to hear back from them? It’s been about a week for me so a bit anxious😅

Congrats! is this for summer?

Thank you! I did my test on the 7th and got the AC invite on the 10th. It's for summer as they only have summer VS!

HFW PFO, this is getting ridiculous now, all I need is a PFO from Linklaters and Latham & Watkins and let me be done with it

Does everyone have to wait for their posts to be approved before them being posted? I find it very restricting and leads to your questions or messages being lost In the forum as it is very active.

Sorry to hear that. Do you mind telling me when you applied?

 

[TCGrad1642]

Same here I haven’t heard from HL or W&C.

I Applied to HL mid Dec did WGT Xmas eve. I Applied to W&C 5th Jan and no response yet.

They both receive a lot of applications and are rolling recruitment. It’s a waiting game at this point. 🥲🥲

HAHA honestly! I applied to Hogan all the way back in October, did WGT over the holidays and still waiting.

[lawyer195]

[EA95]

I applied on the deadline tbf

 

[studentdelaw786]

has anyone still not heard from Davis Polk? thinking about emailing grad rec.. but not sure if that’s advisable

 

[lilymawe1]

Good luck!! You’ll smash it 😎🍀
May I ask when you applied? Also, did you notice whether your progress was at 66% or 77% & said ‘on hold’ or anything else?

I just got an AC invite for LL, and mine was at 66% on hold last time I checked. I know sometimes it is said that 66% means rejection, but in my experience this is not the case necessarily! I also applied a long time ago, I would say mid October from memory.

 

[lilymawe1]

Has anyone heard from Linklaters regarding the spring vacation scheme?

AC invite 2 hours ago

 

[pleasepleaseplease]

Kennedys AC!! Any advice would be super appreciated

Congrats! Please could you share when you did the VI and how long they took to come back to you?
