How confident are you in your knowledge of the core LLB/PGDL subjects, including Contract, Tort, Trusts, Land, Criminal, and Public Law?
TCLA is teaming up with BPP for a free interactive event designed to refresh your fundamentals, especially for those interested in or planning to take the SQE. We'll practise multiple choice SQE questions, with prizes for the highest scoring participants!

Three weeks post my open day lol, feel like a decade.I think some people heard back last week. I haven't heard back yet, not sure if that means I should be expecting a pfo lol.
I would. Besides this definitely being valuable legal work experience, having a VS offer is a very impressive achievement that will immediately distinguish you from the majority of other applicants. Essentially, I believe it has the effect of instantly communicating to graduate recruitment that you were deemed to be a top 98-99% percentile candidate by a peer firm. This will invariably have an important impact in both (i) boosting up your candidate profile; and (ii) making graduate recruiters look at your application through different eyes, and thus making it more likely they will rate other aspects of it higher as well.Thanks Andrei. Would you recommend including upcoming vacation schemes on your direct TC applications to try and boost your ‘legal experience’ element?
You are completely right, just realised I wrote 2025 instead of 2026 by mistake in my other post, corrected it now 😅. Also, besides this, since a substantial number of the law undergrads who applied will have been penultimate years, they will also have the final year to finish in 2025 and thus will only be able to start the SQE in 2026.I assume for non-law grads the 2 years is to allow PGDL in year 1 and SQE year 2. So I always thought the law student might do their SQE in the second gap year so the trainees all starting together in 2027 would be studying SQE all together from September 2026?
I haven’t heard back and was at the first open day - kind of freaking out as I didn’t think I performed badly.anyone else heard or not heard back from debevoise? - if you have heard back which open day did you attend? also any PFOs?
Last open day and I am also insanely nervous!anyone else heard/not heard from debevoise. If you have heard from them which open day did you attend? And has anyone got any PFOs yet?
Got a VS offer about 3 weeks agoHas anyone received an update from WFW post AC?
I think different offices release results at diff timeshi! I haven't heard back from CRS post VI, but I saw that VS offers have already been given out. Is it safe to assume that this would be a PFO![]()
