TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23
Oh, sorry about that! I misunderstood! Yes, I think journalling is absolutely fine as well. At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter what you choose to write about for your passion – it is far more important in how you write about it (i.e., why you enjoy it, what are the skills you took...- RANDOTRON

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23
I personally think journalism and your reasons for liking it are fine. The only thing I'd caution against when writing your answer is writing it in such a way that basically leads the assessor to question your motivation for law. In other words, if you are so passionate about journalism, why not...- RANDOTRON

AC business strategy case studies - how to prepare?
Hoping I'm not too late, but from what I saw on other forums, the general consensus seem to be that the ACs are difficult to practice for. Full disclosure, I never did ACs for VS at DLA or Slaughter, so I'm not sure if you're working in a group or individually or what exactly you'll be doing. I...- RANDOTRON

Pinsent Masons Character Limit Query
Having done their application last year, the word limit was 2000 characters with spaces, but they may have changed this. If you haven't already, I'd email the graduate recruitment to confirm which is the correct word count Here's their email for your convenience: [email protected]- RANDOTRON

International Students from a Non-RG University
No problem! I understand how you feel as I felt that way too but you have to remember that (a) not everyone has a LinkedIn profile, (b) not everyone who gets a TC will post about it, and (c) just because a firm used to recruit more from RG doesn't mean that they still do. In my opinion...- RANDOTRON

International Students from a Non-RG University
Hi there! First of all, do not lose hope! I have the same exact background as you (international student, undergraduate at non-RG, LLM at RG) and managed to secure a TC at an international firm this year, but in my journey I have had those same thoughts as well: that I wasn't good enough and...- RANDOTRON
