RPC AC!

how long did it take you to hear back after you submitted your WGT?

 

[Harvey Specter - Presiding Partner]

If anyone could offer insights into previous Willkie written exercises that would be much appreciated

From what I remember, Gemma mentioned that Willkie’s written exercise has been completely changed this year so none of the previous ones would bare any relevance in any way.

I’m nervous for the written exercise. I haven’t done one before. I have zero idea of what to expect.

Best of luck in the written exercise!!​

Thank you so much! I’m sorry, I didn’t check before so didn’t see what percentage it said. If you are waiting I hope you get good news soon

No worries at all! Thank you!! You're so lovely - thank you, I really appreciate it
All the best, you've got this <3

Hi is this for vs or dtc?

VS

 

[MaxC7930]

Anyone heard from Covington yet?

I had a rejection in Nov

 

[MaxC7930]

I just logged into Vantage through Clifford Chance and it somehow just submitted an application I filled out a few weeks ago (but not ready for submission). No clue how, pressed log in and it said application submitted! There's no way to withdraw it that I can see, so does anybody know where I can contact to let them know to disregard my application? I decided against applying for it anyway, so it isn't like I need to withdraw to re-submit. Thank you! Currently panicking haha

Maybe try emailing Grad Rec? No offence but maybe they will just reject you if its not a finish application? Not sure tho

Does anyone know if RPC's WG is automatic? Haven't heard anything since I submitted early this month

 

[Kakaboo]

How long did it take AG to get back to them after VI?

Unsure if it's automatic, I submitted 6th January, got WG on 9th and then an email saying they're in the process of reviewing all apps on 13th

 

[charlotte1704]

I applied to RPC on the day the applications opened, and haven't heard anything. Anyone else in the same boat?

Yes. The WG isn’t automatic sadly, so I’d assume a PFO.

Anyone have any idea of how to prep for Bristows VI?

I do not think it is automatic. I submitted my application on the 9th Jan and got the WGT invite on the 13th. I am still waiting to hear back post WGT

 

[lawyer195]

Has anyone that did Latham's AC in the first couple weeks of Jan heard back?

 

[mulan0]

Anyone have any idea what kind of ideas how to prep for Bristows VI?

I’m wondering the same, any tips would be greatly appreciated

It is not no. I was rejected post app last year.

 

[abhuzaifa]

Anyone have any experience with Hogan Lovells AC ? Would be grateful for any tips/ insights - just feeling pretty nervous about it.

Happy to talk privately.

Thank you in advance.
