    I have a question- CMS have an insight day for "Non-law undergraduates and graduates studying in England, Wales or NI". I am a non-law graduate, however I have also completed the PGDL. Does this disqualify me from the insight day or could I still apply? (or should I be emailing early careers for...

    I got a PFO post test. Since they review apps after the test I reckon you met the threshold for the test and they're reviewing your app now!

    @Jessica Booker just chasing up if you have any advice? Also- what are your thoughts on using "I'm" instead of "I am" or "it's" for "it is". I'm struggling with word count and this is the only way to keep it down!

    Hey all, just have a few questions (specifically in reference to Mishcon if that's helpful). 1- they ask "do you currently hold a valid visa" right after I answered "no" for needing a visa to work in the UK. I've got a UK passport so don't need a visa, am I correct in saying no to that question...

    I went to their careers talk online yesterday and they said 3/4 of a page. Also said it's okay if some of the things covered in the cover letter are then spoken about in more detail in the questions, and to use it a little like an introduction of some points.

    That is true, I'm not too picky with it, and obviously I know that law is long hours on average anyway, but I have made a cross on category D work life balance on Legal Cheek just because I do think that even if THEY state it, it must be pretty bad 😂

    Hi, could anyone give me insights about Covington's work life balance? They don't have a Legal Cheek page, so I'm not too sure what it looks like. I know they are an American firm and generally those are quite bad so just double checking before I continue my app

    When a question asks you to discuss a topic you are passionate about, are we meant to cite our sources and does it count in the word count?
