    Does anyone know if Debevoise's vac scheme's are paid? They invite like 90 to 100 people to AC and then take 40 or so on Vac schemes for 9 TCs which seems like a lot. Like almost 1 in 2 chance of getting onto vac scheme from AC? Made me wonder if it was paid? Thanks!

    I've heard from a friend who did it last year and was successful that everyone feels that way coming out of an interview with Stephen L. He is just very forceful with the questions and really doesn't back down! Were the questions quite focussed on why them and why PE?
