I started mine a few hours ago. I only have the 'questions' section left now... Giving my fingers a break before I start that, haha. I know what I'm going to write for 2 out of the 3 boxes, but the 2nd question will require a bit more thought. :tongue:

How do you think yours went?

I just sent mine. :biggrin:
When I first saw the application I really went for it, so I believe that some parts of my application will be answered well. The other half, well, includes a great deal of name-dropping, in terms of books that is, and probably isn't really relevant at all. I submitted. Now I wait for rejection :smile:

Errm don't think I spent enough time on it, I wasn't sure how much detail to put in.

i did it in london last year, and now i've got an offer for the gap year scheme. It's a fantastic insight into commercial law, and its a fantastic environment. (London anyway)
I applied for this - Leeds and Manchester :smile:

It was really good, I spent each day in a different department and they gave you actual tasks to do, like research for them or proofreading contracts and things.
Plus, Property had a party with cake while I was there :tongue:

Just out of interest, how many other people were there when you did it?
