MoFo app 2024-25

I was applying to MoFo and was wondering if you have any advice on approaching - 'please include any other information that you consider to be relevant to your application'. This question has no word limit and the application doesn't either. I do think somehow this question provides an opportunity to write anything broadly and including specific information here could help me get to the interview stage.

For context, there is already a 'why MoFo' question, 'commercial news story' question and question on personal achievements, interests and responsibilities {'why you'}. I assume most applicants would include anything from their hobbies or extracurricular activities to other motivations for why MoFo.

Do you have any suggestions as to what I should include to make my application more compelling?

I think you add value to your application by including either of the points you mentioned (the further why MoFo and why me) as long as you ensure they are not repetitive. You could also discuss your broader commercial law journey, as I see there was no direct 'Why commercial law' question. Alternatively, you can mix any of these two or three points together - I do not think there is any inherent superior value to any approach, it is for you to make a judgement call as to what will help show you in the best possible light.

I would only advise you to be careful with word count and writing style. Since this is not a mandatory question and since many of the issues you could talk about here are also discussed elsewhere, I would aim for no more than 300-400 words. However, more importantly, you need to make sure your writing style is as concise and to the point as if there was a very restrictive word count limit.
