Does Macfarlanes online test have a Benchmark or is it considered holistically with the online application?

There is a benchmark according to Grad Rec

 

[evianmineral]

Is test automatic for Macfarlanes? Also what type of test is it.

For a direct TC CV, do I need to list out each module grade under the education section? Or is there a particular format I should use (e.g yearly average, key modules only etc)

This is a US firm which requires a CV and cover letter (no app portal).

I'm inclined to think the former , if there's no app portal. Also, which firm is this?

Has anyone previously completed and is willing to shed some light on what the Withers Written Communications Assessment and Personality Test the you have to complete before AC entails? Thank you!

I would list out all modules if there is no other place to put them (like an online form).

Did they get back to you after the strength based test post-app?

 

[stacy2523]

Did they get back to you after the strength based test post-app?

Yes! Did a first stage interview and now AC

 

[Donuttime]

if there is an online form to list modules, would you still advise to list all modules on the CV?

 

[Jessica Booker]

No - you don’t need to duplicate this information then. In these instances, put your degree details and overall qualification in, and you can highlight and key modules/strong performance if you want to.

 

[Lawlawlaw2]

Has anyone heard from WFW post-VI
