I am so sorry to hear this, Flora. I kept my fingers crossed for you.

Thank you

Hi all I need some advice asap if that's ok. I've got an AC this morning and its all day, with an interview first thing. I did loads of prep and went to bed at 10pm to get enough sleep, only to be kept awake by racing thoughts and anxiety until 3am for a 6am wake up.

Should I mention my sleep deprivation at all? I feel like crying and I'm completely unable to think and I keep losing words even talking to my mum on the phone.

Look at the bright side, you managed to squeeze in an extra 5 hours of preparation!

Hey everyone,

Does anyone have any advice on the Penningtons AC, I have mine next week and haven’t heard anything about what it encompasses. I know this is their last AC, so does anyone who has had the AC have any advice please?

Thank you!!

How do you know this is their last AC?

Anyone been placed on a reserve list for a VS before? Assuming my chances from now are slim, but would be interested to know if there are any people who actually got a place after people dropped out.

Is it a summer VS? There is a chance that some candidates get a TC offer before then and will therefore not go ahead with the VS so there is always hope.

Yeah it is. Cheers - guess it's just a waiting game...

Hey, my friend was on the reserve list for Pinsents and got a place after someone dropping out! It does happen so would definitely remain positive!

2 years ago my friend was on the reserve list at a firm, ended up being offered the vac scheme and getting a TC there!

Has Reed Smith given out rejections post research questions?

Also, anyone heard from Bakers post VI?

My friend was on the reserve list for travers smith, someone dropped out and they got a place on the scheme and is now a future trainee. I really hope you get a place!

I think your chances are quite high as sometimes people can't attend vac schemes if there are clashes with another scheme, or it clashes with exams, or they just have too many offers and feel it's right to just let someone else get a chance
