I would also say that the general advice I was given at a Freshfields applications masterclasses is to follow the basic structure of "Why Freshfields, Why Law, Why You"
Yeah of course, however can't guarantee what I wrote was the perfect structure or formula haha! I wrote the first few paragraphs on why I want to study law, which I then linked to Freshfields by discussing my interactions with the firm and my research, and how that aligned with my motivations...
Hey, probably not what you want to hear but I've got a WG invite for the direct TC after reaching AC stage for their VS last year. Did you take up the offer of a feedback call with grad rec following the AC? I found that to be very helpful as they told me it was mostly my commercial knowledge...
I applied quite early (December 20th) and received the WG invite yesterday, so maybe they could be working through applications chronologically? Not entirely sure though, sorry!
