Sorry to hear that re BC Legal. Was it by email? If so generic or personalised? Just wondering when to expect the inevitable!


It was personalised and in an email format for me. Best of luck to you!
Anyone still waiting to hear from Inner?

Any tips for a 1st round interview with 43 Temple R?

Yep. As I live abroad, I asked them to notify me also by email. They didn't respond, so I rang them yesterday. They said all of the results have already been sent out by post. I assume, then, that we are at the mercy of the efficiency of the postal system!

Thanks, but sadly I got a similar response. Very encouraging response (contrary to the vast majority of applications!) but lack of experience in practice areas did for me.

Ah well, onwards and upwards...

I am still waiting. Very nervous, therefore!

I am in the same situation so I guess I will hear when my mother gets home from work. Eeek.

Good luck people!

I second that! Trying not to get my hopes up but it's so hard! If it's a no I will be disappointed beyond belief!

Good luck guys!

Not going to lie, I am incredibly jealous!! I'll have to wait at least another 5 days to hear back from Gray's and the wait is so difficult. They send notifications via email rather than by post and I've noticed my phone is dying very quickly lately because I've been checking my email so often. Also trying not to get my hopes up but it really is tough!

Best of luck everyone, fingers crossed for all of you!

How do you know it will be 5 days and by email?
I have spoken to someone from a previous year and they also told me that they inform by email.

I have no idea when to expect to hear back though.

I don't know it will be 5 days, I just presume that is when the 4-6 weeks timer will start ticking, so I don't expect to hear anything before then.

Gray's confirmed that it will be by email - I'm moving this week so contacted them last week to confirm.

Good luck!!
Well after dashing home from work I've found that I still have no letter from inner. I have never been through such an intense wait in my life especially since some people heard yesterday and more heard today! This is excruciating.

Me too, still no letter. Since no-one is going to be at home now until mid-April I have asked to be sent it by email, but they did confirm that all letters have been sent (although it was a leading question so perhaps he just said yes without knowing.)

I am sort of in the same position in the sense that if I still don't hear anything tomorrow I will be away from home until mid-April so will also make a request (although I do have a feeling tomorrow will be the day). This is going to be one mighty big fall if it's a rejection after all this anticipation ! Best of luck !

I was lucky enough to receive an email yesterday from Inner (thankfully, a major award of just under 19,000) which I'd asked for a few weeks ago because I'm living abroad. However, when I rang them, they hadn't realised that I had asked previously, and said that although they could facilitate an email, it would mean another 2-3 days delay in me finding out whilst they get ahead of admin. Just giving you a heads up - everyone hates the wait more than anything!

As a heads up Grays are now closed until the 4th April and I've been told that they're aiming to send out responses that week. Slightly frustrating considering we will have to accept bptc offers by the 4th but c'est la vie

I wouldn't stress too much about the 'deadline' of the 4th. Realistically your offers won't be withdrawn on that day afaik. They'll no longer be bound to keep them open, but they won't withdraw them without notice.
