Debating between a b4 liti tc (had applied to one dept but was interviewed by another and offered by the latter) vs a few other midsizes for the dept I want. B4 interviewer said they noted my area of interest and will try to put me on those files as much as possible, but I’m not too sure since it’s quite different from what the dept is marketed as. But the b4 prestige will look good on my resume? Don’t know if I should just grind it out there for a few years before jumping elsewhere

Anyone successfully applied for exemption with regards to the recognition of the BA Law (Senior Status) 2 year degree from Oxford?

Currently a newly graduated first class honours medical degree holder from TCD. Got an offer to study the 2 year accelerated senior status degree from Oxford.

What's your area of interest? I assume it's not liti

How would the firm fare when compared to the B4 and other full service firms such as Baker, Dentons, DMS, Khattarwong and SLB? A school senior told us that the firm is one of the best in Singapore when it comes to corp and transactional work, making them a strong recruitment ground outside of the B4 for the international firms. Good WLB as well. Classmates who recently interned there also had good things to say about the firm, culture and colleagues.

go for it, someone I know told me that he rejected a TC from Baker after he was offered a spot here.
