And for international students who cant apply to VCs, would you say that the direct TC looks at internationals a bit more favorably than other applicants or not really @Jessica Booker
There is no advantage in being international and applying for direct training contract, if anything it could be a bit challenging as you will need to demonstrate why you are worth the investment (since they will need to sponsor you) compared to your British national counterpart. As an international student myself, when I was applying last year I thought that it would have been harder for me to get a training contract because of the visa issues. However, I would say that these considerations, although valid, should not deter you or make you feel like you have an advantage on anyone or less chances than anyone. Put your best foot forward and submit the best applications that you can, and I am sure you will be successful!

Good luck with the process!

Has anyone heard back or knows when we hear back about the CMS Watson Glaser?
I applied on the 3rd and I'm still waiting to hear back. It's my first application ever for what is my first application cycle. Does anyone know CMS's Watson Glaser pass threshold?

Did you submit the WG on the 3rd or submit the app on the 3rd?
