It's not that crazy for them to ask proof/evidence! it's just a diagnostic certificate, doctors note, that kinda thing

Yeah it's very common for Links to ask for supporting documentation. I did the same for my AC last year and sent them all the documents I had. I guess the more you can send the better but it's a very routine thing from law-firms

Mental health-wise, I kinda feel like I need to do something else, other than constantly checking my emails and this thread. Any suggestions? :)

Best thing that I started doing was working on other apps and try to submit them. Worst case scenario if you get rejected, you know that you have other options so I'd recommend that.

If not that, start making plans with your friends and start getting out the house and doing stuff. You'll still check your e-mails but you'll be out and about. I'm going to restart the gym in the next few days and at least I'll be doing something as well as refreshing e-mails.

Hope you hear good news soon! :)

Will do so, thanks for the suggestions! Fingers crossed.

FYI I didn't get any offers lol. I was REJECTED by all 4 haha but I'm ready and here to give y'all some advice!

What was encouraging was I slowly built up on the feedback from each AC... hopefully the next AC will be the last one!

That is nice of you to offer share your experience and offer advice, it never ceases to amaze me how wonderful the community here is!

(Also, I am pretty sure that all the skills that you have gathered will help you to smash any upcoming ACs! :) )

That’s very interesting. I really honestly doubt that a little bit because of what another person on the thread said earlier..Essentially they got a few below averages and one above average .. then they got through.. so I wonder if there are other things taken into consideration or it’s just pure luck. Whoever reads your app considers it all then decides.
I saw the other responses afterwards yes! I have no idea in this case, I had met the firm (both graduate recruiters actually) and I thought my application was good - maybe they want a specific combination of strengths? I can only guess :D
