[QUOTE="Amgrad, post: 229010, member: 42426"] I've already done all of your advice, esp abt using the max word count, but I do believe for my case I was not aware of: • Transactional focus, at the end of paragraph of 'why Skadden' I linked it back with my regulatory aspect of my work at the UN, I should have highlighted more of the non-contentious work and London office in this section. • I made 2 abbreviations like my CC's TC & GD's OD apps. I knew I wrote things like 'don't' or "it's" which is grammatically correct, but I've realised that some firms don't like this type of writing, especially for bigger firm. I made to Goodwin, Cooley, and Taylor Wessing Open Day with these mistakes, but they care more about your topic than sort of aspects. • I do believe I've also had some unmatched to their expectations on different part of other Essay Qs 😭 I am wondering that by written TCLA when they asked about "which organisation help you on this application?" won't lower your chance to pass as I didn't request for one on one paid session like others prev said yet got PFO as me. Their feedback on to ask other poofreading provider to review your app is so vague! I only use general tips from everybody on this forum esp Abbie and Andrei. 🥲 Now I am wondering "WOULD KIRKLAND DUMB ME TOO?" as these firms share common value lmao I applied on Friday (2 days before deadline), yet no VI invite [/QUOTE]
