@Jessica Booker Hi Jessica,
If I'm due to start my training contract in February 2027, do you have any idea of when would I start the SQE prep course?
I would speak to your firm about this as there could be flexibility if there are two trainee intakes a year and if you are available to start it sometime this year.

hello everyone!
I hope you’re doing okay, this application cycle has been brutal :)

I'm starting a legal internship in March and was wondering how long I should wait before sending my other DTC applications. I was thinking of sending them by the beginning of May, but I'm worried that some firms might close their application windows early, like NRF did this year.

Any advice or insights is greatly appreciated!!
