    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Macfarlanes are quite forgiving! I had a 2:2 in my second year (but with mitigating) and I got an AC there! Same with trowers and Hamlins and Stephenson Harwood. I have a low 2:1 and got AC/interviews there too :)

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    @Jessica Booker I just did a video interview where in the first question, there were 2 Qs in one and I only focused on the first Q (which was the main part of the Q). Everything else in the VI went fine - do you think this will lead to a rejection? I don't know if the firm will just toss aside...

    Does anyone know if CMS's VI is motivational and competency based? Or if it's also got scenario questions in it? Feeling quite stressed for it!

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2022-23

    Ah fair enough! I remember last year I only had 5 other people in my AC and grad rec said 18 people overall had been invited to the WVS ACs. Also I said 8/9 only for WVS because I thought that was what you were specifically asking about - but I agree it's definitely have more spaces if you're...

    I think it's around 8 or 9? That's just a guess though from knowing that around 18 people got AC (last year anyway). I might be completely wrong though!!!

    Hey! I wanted to respond to your message because I have also felt similar things to you. I also managed to do well post-app last year and fear that I won't get anymore ACs or even past the app stage this year (I've never had a vac scheme after 2 years of apps btw)! But we have to remember that...

    I’m sorry to hear that :( I’m feeling the same about a firm too (even though I haven’t had a rejection yet I’ve just lost hope with it) - but we’re going to be okay, one day for us it’ll be a yes !!!

    Hey I have an anxiety order too and I know exactly how you feel! I haven’t had a vac scheme offer yet because of it (I think) where in my first AC, they said (in my feedback) I was so nervous I couldn’t even form sentences properly! I’ve had 3 ACs now and I’ve seen how much I’ve improved with...
