    Thanks for the reply! In the same boat, has been 4 weeks as of tomorrow. I know times are strange but they still opened the competition, weird. I think public sector recruitment is known to take a bit longer in fairness

    Got rejected today, apparently there was a large number of applications. Getting a job is going to be brutal it seems.

    Hi there. I am sitting EU exam in August. Was just wondering if you would be so kind as to send me on the exam grid via DM? I would greatly appreciate it, as this is my first ever sitting of an FE1.

    Yep, and my mark didn’t move. Not surprised but bit annoyed that I still haven’t been sent my script when I requested it on the 1st May - my paper could already have been marked by the external! Hope you were luckier, guess it’s a coin toss really

    Would anyone have a set of sample answers for Tort Law? I have past papers as far back as 2010 but practicing without anything to go off means I'm a bit unsure am I answering in the right way. Many thanks.

    Second question, the applications open tomorrow for the Tort Law & EU Law exams in August correct? Does anyone know if it's all done on the law society website or are they still using paper applications? Is there a set time the applications open tomorrow like 9am for example?

    Hey, if anyone has any up to date grids/materials for Tort or EU that they are willing to send on it would be greatly appreciated. Facing into FE1s for the first time is quite daunting to say the least. Thank you in advance!

    I spoke with the LS last week through email and they said they’d have the form up by Friday last. And got no response when I asked if it was going to be an online or paper application. But like you say it probably will be up by end of day

    Worked today for me. I think. It said 95% done after filling it all out and it said my application was under review, and I could check it under "my applications". Then I got that login error someone has described above. So hopefully that worked.

    Can I ask when you did the application? I did mine at half 9 and haven't got one yet. Just concerned the site didn't accept it because it's barely functioning.

    When I go into apply it says my application is at 95%, anyone getting the same thing?

    I doubt it makes any difference if it's BA, LLB etc I would just tick BA. I've sent them hard copy applications with stuff written in the margins cos there was no space on the form to clarify!

    If you type 'Bachelor of Laws' then LLB will appear in the drop down menu.

    That was happening me a lot this morning, eventually after doing the same thing over and over again it would randomly work... same thing happened throughout the application process for me, especially when clicking upload button for documents. I tried three different browsers and the same was happening for each. Stick with it and eventually you'll get through the application, it took a while though for me
