What's new

Hi, i've seen that you were posting about Brabners TC. I'm wondering if you were able to get past the application step? If so, any tips? I work full time and am finding it super difficult to write about extra-curriculars etc!

2025 Vac Scheme Cycle -

Got my first rejection by Bird & Bird around 2 pm whilst I was doing my Osborne Clarke assessment for the Vacation scheme
Speaking of which, I flopped it because I didn't get to finish the second part of the test (2 questions away), but I think the answers that I submitted were more correct than not, so maybe that's not too bad.

My favourite part of researching is when I research on firm A and come across an important deal it has worked on, and the firm in the opposite side the firm that my next application's gonna be about. It has happened 4 times, and it makes me feel so happy and excited that I don't have to do two different research to highlight a case, phew!

Hi Abbie, I had a quick question about an application prompt: The world is changing in the legal sector - how do you think the profession is changing? Do you think it’s too niche to focus on the rise of blockchain in IP, even though the firm has a strong IP practice? I’m wondering whether it’s safer to take a broader approach instead.

hey congrats on your simmons ac!!! I was just wondering what did you talk about for the changes in legal sector q?
