Don't worry - mine does too! The 77%/66% is just a conspiracy theory for us to pass the time 😅 😂 Hopefully we'll get some positive news soon - I think it should be the end of the month at latest but hopefully sooner.

Submitted S&C Summer VS on Saturday, getting an email saying "on hold" today.
I did this but I wrote it in full the first time and then in brackets put (‘W&C’) next to the firm name so hoping it’s okay otherwise I’m cooked 😂😂😂
Although I don’t think I wrote it like that in the cover letter - I wrote it like that in the other sections of the application form.
congrats!! do you mind saying when you applied for davis polkI have an interview with Davis Polk and a Cleary AC next week- would be very thankful for advice on either!
Thank you for your response and the confidence booster 🤣🤣
Btw this is a bit random, but has anyone applied for the Discovering Linklaters event? And if so have they received a response?
I would just like to add I applied to WFW a few hours before the deadline and made it to final interview for direct tc so don’t lose hope!!
Congrats! Can I ask when you were invited to the Davis Polk Interview?I have an interview with Davis Polk and a Cleary AC next week- would be very thankful for advice on either!
I am assuming that if people have got passed the second round of the application process and I haven't had a response yet to the initial application then its a rejection. If theres no sign that anyones application has moved forward I'm assuming I'll hear back some point this month

I have been a lurker for a few months and finally made an account, I have made 10 applications. I am thinking of doing more. Sharing my journey with you all.
For reference, I applied to DP on December 7 (spring and summer VS), and heard back today. I applied to Cleary (spring) at the beginning of November and got the invite yesterday. Good luck everyone!

Does anyone know if firms like Hogan Lovells send all their AC invites in one go or not? I've done their WG but have seen an AC invite for someone who sat it like 12 days after me so am trying to figure out i've been rejected and they haven't sent it yet or not
On their website it mentions they get around 4-5,000 applications across all their different opportunities e.g., HL Lift Off/Launch Pad, VS and Direct TC’s. 🥲
Around 2-300 people get invited to the VS AC across WVS and SVS. I imagine they will read every application and select the best ones and send those invites out as they review. 🤷🏾♂️
They consider applications alongside WGT scores.

What is the best way of approaching answers to why law vs why commercial law? I did law undergrad and had debated changing careers until I decided to pursue masters degree in international commercial where I took a practical M&A module which made me realise i wanted to go into commercial law. This is what I have talked about in my applications/VIs and have given this answer regardless of whether I was asked why law or why commercial law. If asked in an interview to elaborate on the difference between the two, how would you suggest approaching an answer to this?
thank you so much in advance!
