Hi -

I heard somewhere that there is a different preference to non-law and law students for travers smith's winter and summer vacation scheme - but i can't remember which way round it is (e.g. non-law preferred for winter) - does anyone know? I initially thought it was summer for non-law, but recently heard someone say winter for non-law.Thanks in advance.

Most likely non law in winter as you’d typically be applying as a finalist. If you did a summer scheme there wouldn’t be too much time to get your signed up to the GDL if you then converted as a grad.
