    Osborne Clarke VS Question

    I've read the first question to mean how is OC different to others (and as such how does it have a competitive advantage) to illustrate we know about the firm's business strategy.

    Clyde and Co vac scheme application

    I wouldn't worry too much - I feel like they changed this last minute. I had copied and pasted the questions a few weeks ago to start drafting it, and once I had logged in again a few days ago it had changed. So I'm sure you've answered the right question if it was back in November!

    Herbert Smith Freehills App

    Regarding HSF's 'Introduce us to a topic you know about and explain why it interests you' question, how much of the word count should go towards 'introducing' the topic and then 'explaining' why it interests you? I know the word count is 300 words.
