@Jessica Booker or anyone who can help: I passed my SQE2 exams today and am wondering whether I need to update the grad rec on this. I have some apps that I sent out before receiving my results. I also have a last stage VS interview with another firm next week. Is it worth emailing all the firms I have applied to so far?
For the firm you have an interview with next week, I would just update them at the interview.

If there are any firms that you have applied that that are recruiting for 2025 or 2026, I would update them with this information. However, if it is for 2027/28 training contracts I don’t think this is as relevant to them, and so I would only update them if you were invited to an interview stage with them.

Just want to say - 1.) you're honestly so cool - i love history facts + this is honestly one of the best ones 2.) the wheel of fortune thing has also stuck with me for the past few days + has really helped me put things into perspective
Thank you so much for sharing it w us :)

Haha, thank you that’s so lovely! I’m really, really glad it resonated with you too.

If you ever want to talk about history facts, I LOVE the Wars of the Roses, the Tudors, the Sultanate of Women and Ancient Greek stuff :)

EDIT: obviously in PMs, I don’t think this thread would care much for my history rants, haha!
