I went to one of the Pinsent Masons pizza making events and grad rec said it is NOT rolling. They said it will make no difference if you submit on the first or last day

Was this in relation to the vac scheme, TC, or
both?

Thank you!

Thank you!

I asked in relation to their vac scheme but I would assume it is the same for both?

How much did everyone end up writing in their app (in terms of meeting the word limit of 4000 characters/650 words approx.)? I'm putting a draft together and its roughly 350 words per question (this is below the limit but I can't seem to reach the limit without it coming across as "waffling".

I did the full count for the two questions I considered most important (why PM? & why commercial law?). The others I used maybe two thirds to three quarters. I'm not sure its actually possibly to use 4000 characters for hobbies without waffling...
