People who paid for TCLA premium this year or the TCLA academy / those sorts of paid resources offered, is it worth the money?
I am looking into paying for those sorts of things from august ish onwards to prep for the next application cycle as I couldn't get past ACs this year and want to know if its worth it. Thanks :)
Personally, I have had a very positive experience with TCLA Premium Gold. I’ve secured 3 VS at MC/Silver Circle firms (this is my first application cycle and those VS offers resulted from my first three ACs), and I genuinely believe that this wouldn’t have been possible without TCLA Premium and advice from the TCLA Community.

In terms of TCLA Premium, I found the Premium database and the courses on case studies/situational judgement (scenario-based) interview questions most helpful, alongside some of the ‘firm profiles’ as well.

If I can't find the name of a firm's recruitment, who do I address a cover letter to? Also, I would appreciate if anyone has any tips for drafting a legal cover letter (how to approach it, what kind of questions to asnwer etc) thank you!

Hey! Has anyone got any advice for the SPB AC? I’m really anxious especially about the written exercise and group task. Any advice would be appreciated!! Also I’m really confused about the impact of the current tarriffs being imposed by the US on law firms. If anyone could explain this that would be great :)
