TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2026-27

[Amelia.05]

Has anyone received an application update after Macfarlanes' winter vac scheme stage 2 assessment?

Could you please provide some insights into stage two? happy to share on hogan, ashusrt, mills and reeve, and freshfields

Milbank done, that was effing awful.

How on earth can I ask for adjustments where there is nowhere which indicated what is in the test so I know which adjustments will need to be asked for!! Like something in there I 100% needed adjustments for but the firm didn't even respond to when I asked "what is in the test so I can know if i need adjustments or not".

Really disheartening

(before anyone asks for insight, my next test I plan to do is Sidley Austin, do with that information what you will)

Haven't done Milbank yet. How different is it to a run of the mill WG/SJT?

Does anyone know what motivational/long-answer questions A&O Shearman has on their form for the vac scheme?

Does anyone know what the A&O Shearman video questions are? I think we have unlimited prep time but can't seem to find them
