I'm looking to apply to a few but so far have been focused on the Burges Salmon one and honestly it's been good, only struggle is worrying about whether I've written enough or done enough research

I know what you mean, I really love the Linklaters one but the lack of word count is really unsettling. Also very scared for the Watson Glaser
