    yeah I probably would if that's the case! Will give you a better chance I'd imagine especially if you have no preference dates wise

    Honestly I think you'll be fine - they may not even notice it particularly if it's as minor as that!

    Which law firms recruit on a rolling basis? (2020-21)

    Hey @Adam Gilchrist, Awesome work compiling this list! Just a suggestion, but it might be easier if you can group the rolling firms together and non-rolling firms together (or make the distinction a bit more obvious some other way)?

    Common mistakes on application forms.....

    I would always use Freehills' or alternatively you could just say the firm's which makes it much easier

    Commercial Awareness - Podcast Thread

    I think what Alice has said here is spot on. No firm would expect you to have detailed knowledge of every sector - I'm not sure that's even realistic tbh! My approach was pretty much the one that Alice has given in the above example, so I reckon if you follow that you won't go far wrong :)

    Hogan Lovells Application 2020/21

    I think firms will be taking results this year with a pinch of salt tbh so I wouldn't worry! There's been a lot of disruption to studies for A-levels and for university study which firms will take into account so you definitely will still have a good chance of securing a TC at city firms!
