Message: <blockquote data-quote="Andrei Radu" data-source="post: 183175" data-attributes="member: 36777">While I do not think it is necessary, it is very helpful for improving the quality of your written answers. I only got reviews for the first 4/5 applications I submitted in my second application cycle - but this was by far the biggest contributor to learning about type of writing law firm recruiters want to see. After incorporating comments from those reviews, not only did I significantly improve the quality of that specific application, I also improved my general application writing ability. Thus, I progressively saw less and less comments from my reviewers. Having built up my skills this way, I ended up being able to submit around 15 other applications of the same quality without needing reviews. In your case, although only available on a paid-for basis, you can get application reviews services from organisations like TCLA. In the specific case of TCLA, you can purchase application reviews directly, or you can get them as part of a subscription. Alternatively, should you not be able to get as many reviews as you would like, I think the best way to learn how to write great applications is to review your own applications. I'd advise you to look at examples of past successful applications and compare them with your own answers. Are they more concise? Is the structure and style different? Are those applications employing an easier to follow phrasing? Are their substantive points more convincing, and if so, why? By comparing your own work to the model successful answers available and by asking these questions, you can critically review your own application line by line. Then you can make your own comments and action them, as you would if someone else reviewed it for you.</blockquote>
