People who applied near the deadline for Milbank, how long did it take to get an update post stage 1 assessment?

Still waiting.....

I do suppose it could be a generic; we haven't had a chance to review you yet, please don't chase us.

They're on this forum lurking and saw everyone's crashing out hahaha

they did say originally they’d get back to us by mid jan so they probably just know they wouldn’t be able to fulfil that now

Ugh, always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

Let's see how the month pans out, I guess...

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought those with WG invites were Spring applicants? Personally, I got the email and I am a Summer applicant so I wasn't expecting to get a quick response.

I applied the day before the deadline, got the test invite within 1 working day, completed the test on Tuesday and waiting to hear back. They did have an AC yesterday so there may be a delay in getting back

Those who got the Cooley holding email, can I just ask, did you submit on the deadline? I did so maybe that’s why we got the holding emails

I applied for spring, but received the holding email cos I applied late December. Deadline was 01/01

 

[ilikelaw]

either way if theyre saying they received a high volume of strong applicants that’s very scary 😭

People who have done Milbank stage 2, when did you hear back?

I did mine last Saturday and didn't hear back as yet.

Cooley PFO- those with holding emails are probably in the clear!

Does anyone have any insight into whether Latham will be hosting more AC's at all, particularly for Spring? Hearing nothing is so painful 💔

Didn’t realise people already did.
