It's really just as simple as reaffirming you have done your best, and, however much you'd like to, you cannot turn back time. The past is the past, so let's focus on the now! Try and distract yourself by doing things you enjoy. Hope for the best for you :)- LEL

Keep getting ACs but always feel like I fail them...
Hii, I totally understand your point and this is something I considered before my ACs as well. The idea is to revise your response enough to know your main points and sub-points, but not memorising it word for word. For instance, if I'm preparing an answer for 'why this firm', I would broadly...- LEL

Guys what happens if a dispute doesn't settle after you've exhausted all forms of alternative dispute resolution?? Do you then go through litigation?- LEL

You can do, but remember they might also ask you to mention a time when you were a leader and it may not be good to use the same example twice. Try and think of any teamwork example, even if it's simple like a group project at uni!- LEL

TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2021-22 (#1)
For 'why this firm', it's why you want to train there. What is it about the firm that you particularly like or value or appreciate, and how does that confirm that you want to work there? It can be reason A, reason B and reason C. For 'what makes this firm stand out', you have to know whether...- LEL

It can be specific to the interviewer if you know something about their practice area e.g. for me, the partner was in a newly established practice area so I asked what it was like building the practice from scratch. But don't ask about their practice for the sake of it, and always be prepared to...- LEL

I found this Chambers document (450+ pages, probably longer than an SPA!), and it has profiles on every firm. It's like True Picture, but much more detailed I've found. I hope it helps someone! https://assets.chambers.com/Chambers+Student/2021+Guide/007+The+true+Picture_.pdf- LEL
