    Hypothetically, is it often possible to switch between spring/summer vacation schemes if you end up having a clash? (I'm not in this quite fortunate position haha, just wondering as the places I am progressing with have vacs at the same time - and some have alternate schemes).

    The most I've seen personally is firms being willing to move you from, for example, Summer Scheme 1 to Summer Scheme 2. I've never seen a move to an entirely different scheme because usually they're completely full from their application process - although there might be some variance within firms!

    @Autotunedbird hi which of those did you hear back from?

    I can't really see the list of firms I had listed that you are referring to but pretty much PFO from Hogan Lovells, DLA, Dentons and BCLP post-WG/SGT. CMS told me they're still processing applications even though I'm literally at the post-app stage and some people already have ACs and offers already (they do have a large intake so a little bit of hope left in me tbh) and I can ALREADY smell a pfo coming from Latham post-SGT, they just want to do it fatality style maybe? 😭 Waiting for CRS, Travers and Mayer Brown now
