    Can't exactly remember where I read it - maybe on the website - but I think they'll get back to us end of Jan?

    Has anyone done Latham's online test? I haven't seen much info on it anywhere so I'm not sure if it's a crucial part e.g., like A&O's SJT, but did anyone have to prepare a lot?

    To anyone who did A&O interviews this week, did any of your interviewers say when we should expect to hear back?

    @Jessica Booker Hi Jessica, I finished my vac scheme a week ago and wasn't offered a TC due to underperforming in the final interview. Regardless, it was a great experience and I'll probs apply to direct TCs now. However, would this be more positive/negative on my overall future applications...

    Hi all, not sure where to put this question so sorry if it shouldn't be here, but what do men typically wear on a vacation scheme? Do I have to wear a suit and tie everyday or can I come in a bit more smart-casual e.g., quarter-zips or a jumper over my shirt without a tie?

    Thanks everyone who advised me about accommodation in London! I've been able to find some hotels with good transport links and some uni halls :) However, I haven't been able to find any student facebook chats for stuff like this, so by chance does anyone know/is anyone in a FB chat for vac...

    Hi! Since this is my first vac scheme in the summer, I'm not really sure if there is a best way to sort out accommodation. It's in London, and the firm told me I could try living in hotels near the office or contact London universities to live in their halls during the scheme. All options are...

    Thank you! And yes of course, I would never say it was naff in an interview. Could I ask you how you answered that question? I know it would be personal for everyone, but I don't want really want to just say 'I found it quite difficult to understand'.

    @Jessica Booker Hi Jessica, just got a 2.2 in one of my modules, how badly would this affect my applications if the rest of my modules were a consistent 2.1? This subject is a bit naff anyways, as year-on-year at my university people consistently don't do great in it. I should also have...
