    Just annoying that I haven't heard back. My friends I know already have PFO or AC, so it's frustrating af.

    To those being edged by Freshfields like me (rip), a glimmer of hope. I trawled through old posts on TCLA and one poster said they got AC invite 3 weeks after WG. So, let's stay positive gang!!!

    In the same boat for Freshfields (I'm non-law), expected a PFO - nothing. Did the WG last week - other friend (non-law) who applied was rejected pre-WG and another friend (law) got an AC invite last week. One wonders if there might be another batch of slots coming out?? Ugh, this is really painful.

    Does anyone know from last year when Cleary Gottlieb rolled out AC invites for summer vac schemes? I know some were announced last Thursday (heard through a friend) but I'm guessing she applied for their spring vac scheme?

    Freshfields is killing me. From what it seems, it looks like a rejection email incoming tomorrow morning. I applied on the deadline but I'm the only one who hasn't heard back in my friend circles. The suspense is killing me.

    Maybe. I don't know - I need to ask him. I'm non-law, so maybe that's why I'm on a different timescale? My other law friend has got an AC invite and he applied a few days before the deadline like me. Hopefully, I'm in consideration for a later batch of ACs...

    I had my interview with Slaughters this week and the partner interviewing told me that it's highly competitive with only a very small cohort for summer work experience. The senior assoc. in the interview also said not to worry because she got rejected for summers but got the TC there. But would...

    Has anyone heard from Freshfields for AC stage for Summers?? I did WG two weeks ago and haven't heard. My friend who applied same timeframe got a PFO apparently. Does that mean I still have a chance??

    How does Linklaters use the results of the Critical Reasoning Test? Is it viewed alongside the written app? Currently at 77% at hold (pending Interview), so feeling super nervous... :/

    I put both Spring and Summer because I was kinda applying on a whim. I got rejected at VI for Fast Track scheme last year, so I wasn't expecting to get through. If you haven't heard anything, you might still be in the game. All the best!

    Has anyone heard back from Links? Or know based on previous years, when they contact applicants on next step?

    I got rejected by Weil yesterday evening. I submitted the day before deadline - rip. I'm guessing the spaces are basically filled up.

    If it's "on hold", does that mean we've passed the WG threshold?
