    Received a feedback report from Clyde & Co this morning. Top strengths: learning agility, judgment. Weakest: personal responsibility. Won't make any assumptions based on the report but I do think the results are more accurate than Linklaters' Capp. Capp submitted Nov 20.

    I think they are only offering to First Steps and Brand Ambassadors first (similar to DLA Piper). We will probably hear back later this month regarding ACs.

    Exact same position as you, even down to the day of the update. I have not received any news but I've previously had issues receiving emails. Keeping an eye out for us.

    That would be quite surprising! On the website CC says they won't look at any results from the practice trial link but does not mention anything about weighing the actual test results. I know other firms look at WGT results in conjunction with apps and grades but how each firm weighs those...

    Applied to CC 2024 TC and it hasn't been updated since Nov 15. I got confirmation I have passed the WGT on Sept 27 so it's been a long wait for me! Anyone else on the same boat?

    From my experience solely: last year I successfully applied to many open days but the success rate did not necessarily reflect that of my vacation scheme applications. I think the better perspective to have is that the open day not only demonstrates your commitment to learning more about the...

    I was exactly like this last year. My inconsistency has since improved because I did so many practice tests and read so many guides. I would definitely search the web for some "cheat sheets" (or make one yourself!) that digests each WG section like a rulebook. It helped me understand the...
