My route to the gym passes Simmons, Slaughter and May, Trowers and Stephenson hardwood, I'm always tempted to pop in

perhaps third space - moorgate

Nothing from Weil, Dechert or Kirkland - likely PFO I think.

Has anyone who applied just before Christmas heard back from Akin :’)

 

[iklawapps]

I wouldnt worry too much about this, just email your tutor and ask if it is okay but they never really ask more than a confirmation of grades..etc. They usually contact after you get an offer for VC or TC as well (or just before they make the offer). Most tutors are used to students asking and dont mind at all. Mine got fed up of me asking everytime and said i can put her down for all applications she doesnt care LOL

Aw, thanks so much for lmk < 3 I really appreciate that!!

They said they did it on Sunday just gone. They had pretty high scores 6979 as well. I guess I'm cooked with my 7649 lol
