[QUOTE="ASullivanP, post: 174351, member: 33185"] Hi! I am a penultimate year non law student. I applied to three vac schemes this year. I had two unsuccessful interviews and one initial rejection. I'm feeling a bit stressed because there's often a sense that if you don't secure a vac scheme in second year you fall behind the curb in terms of application competitiveness. This is a worry for me because it looks like I won't be able to get legal work experience this summer. Is anyone else in the same boat? And how unreasonable is it to be worried that not having done a vac scheme yet will disadvantage me? I'd be especially interested to hear from non-law students, because I think that many of us are later to the game of applying. Best, A [/QUOTE]
