    Thanks Jessica, yes I was thinking if it is possible that the firm would allow me to take the course in, say, Manchester or Cambridge, instead of London?

    Say if I have a TC starting in 2024, will the firm be likely to allow me to take the SQE course in September 2022? What about at a location outside London if that's my preference due to personal circumstances?

    Has anyone got any insight on Ropes & Gray's assessment centre? In particular the "elevator pitch presentation" - what does that entail exactly?

    So Ropes asks us to do a test before going to the AC, but after finishing the test and seeing my report I feel like there's no point going to the AC anymore loll. Especially when you have another AC on the following day..

    If my Freshfields portal says "Last updated: Jan 4" (i.e before the deadline and they are non rolling) does that mean GR hasn't downloaded/read my application yet?

    Completed the Watson Glaser test for HL on Dec 6 and heard nothing since. Anyone in the same position? Not sure if I should email GR to ask for an update.

    Oh congrats! So it seems like they are still handing out ACs? I applied for spring as well and have heard nothing since. I see others have completed second round interview already.

    Has anyone heard back from King & Spalding? On their website it says we should hear back by the end of January.
