    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    This is so helpful, thank you! Going to try and just do them daily and actually try to make sure I understand them lol. I was feeling confident after all my practice tests but I guess now I know what the outcome will be so I can just move on from it.

    TCLA Vacation Scheme Applications Discussion Thread 2024-25

    Congrats on the score! I'd imagine perhaps it's a very competitive year, maybe quite a few are scoring high and it seems like from this thread they are allowing others on the summer/spring vacs also. Can I ask, how did you prepare for the WG test and how much preparation time did you dedicate...

    Has anyone done horribly in the Watson Glasser test for Linklakers? I did loads of practice ones and was scoring 65-75% percentile, but I just asked for my results and I scored in the 11th!!! I am so so confused and embarrassed honestly.

    Yea, you're exactly right! I've read a few on here which have had excellence as their lowest and thought if I had that result I would have been concerned about that too lol.

    Applying to White & Case? ABC, 2:1 Non RG.

    Hi all, I was looking onto to find a kind of academic profile for white & case trainees. From what I have seen on LinkedIn, it appears that associates who work at the firm and are Non RG are only considered if they have obtained a first. I have a range of grades in my uni degree during my...

    Are you allowed to apply for 2 vac schemes? A&O

    Hi all, As per the heading, can you apply to 2? Both are Vac Schemes at A&O with 1 being in Belfast at their delivery centre and another for London? I am confused as they said you can't apply for two unless it's at for example one of their delivery places.. so I guess it means it's fine...
