    I've heard of people who've got through to ACs with typos - better to not email Grad Rec as you're pointing out your mistake and they might not notice themselves

    Congrats Dan! I'm absolutely delighted for you :) They do recruit on a non-rolling basis (ACs are only held after the deadline) but they hand out VIs on a rolling basis. So for anyone else who's panicking, don't worry!

    CC rejection too. Confident it'll be one of the last rejections everyone on here gets! :)

    I'll see you there at Gibson Dunn :) Anyone else received an invite to their Open Day or Cooley's? (Would be great to meet anyone from TCLA there!)

    Book recommendations?

    Definitely recommend Too Big To Fail! It's a great insight into what lawyers do and an easily understandable version of the financial crisis.
