    Congratulations! Weird question, is Orrick rolling or non-rolling? I thought I’d seen somewhere that direct training contract apps were non rolling, but could be wrong

    100 percent agree with this! i used to teach the LSAT in the US and understanding question structure and why certain answers are correct should be the priority - makes a very big difference to overall performance. if it’s helpful, joe mallet (a trainee at Vinson & Elkins) has great video...

    I feel you completely! This is the first time I've ever received a response in less than 2 weeks. The whole application process has seemed quite opaque to me. Sigh. I hope you hear back soon! For TC in 2024!

    Hi friends, I’m really sorry about the delay in this. A family member suddenly passed away on Thursday and I’ve been a bit of a mess since. I’m still planning having a meeting at some point before April 5th. Will send an update later tonight.

    Just got a V&E vac scheme offer. My first ever vac scheme. This last year has been rough for a variety of personal reasons - this week was especially difficult, as a family member passed away suddenly. But I just wanted to thank every one of you who has posted something that's made me laugh...

    Technically, they did say they'd get back to us by the end of the month. But if I remember correctly, there was someone on here who mentioned that it may take up to next week as well to hear back.
