    Thanks for the insight and advice. It's annoying, a couple of marks make a massive difference from a very strong score to an above-average performance. Your breakdown is incredibly helpful. I've completed 2 official WGs already. Before that, I completed a significant amount of VR and WG...

    I need some Watson Glaser advice. Recently, on practice tests, I have been scoring 75 - 78% overall. I'm very confident with the arguments, interpretation and deduction sections, scoring close to if not exactly 100%. Assumptions took me a worrying amount of time to get over but I now score 75%...

    Two birds, one stone, one disillusioned and disheartened vac scheme applicant. Brief update on my app cycle experience so far. Rejected by those Two Birds from London today. Weren't a big fan of my chat evidently. Perhaps I was punching a bit much considering I didn't meet their "standards"...

    AG test isn't automatic. At least it wasn't last year. If it has changed then I am in fact wrong. In regards to how long you have, the email says until the Jan 5th deadline. However, it is strongly recommended to complete this as soon as you feel possible to do so. I applied for the Direct TC...

    Just to clarify. After completing the CRT for the London Addleshaw office, you get progressed to the TI/VI stage or it goes straight to AC? I ask because the CRT is not automatic and last year and before, they only did App stage, CRT, AC

    Did you manage to see Addleshaw, Bates Wells and Hogan Lovells?

    Just wondering (I’m not intending to criticise your behaviour and personality) but have you considered UK firms more? I’m just interested in understanding your strong focus on US firms! Maybe that could be the key and you can move to US post TC? Many do it, and from looking at the way you...

    I’ve got one too. I wonder if it’s to do with location? I’m in the midlands so I imagine they want to make it easier for ppl close to the office (London) then again, it quicker for me to come in than someone else who lives in SE/SW London. But I digress. Congrats tho! I’m making a list of...

    Thank you, Amma. I appreciate you clarifying this. I applied on the 4th, scheme was open to applications on the 1st. So I don't even know. But as you said, the info is the same so I'll make the most of it.

    Just invited to Mishcon Race Open day. However, my application has been transferred to the online event instead of the In person one. Is there a reason why this happens? Was my application not strong enough for the In-person Open Day?

    I haven’t received that. When I log in to my app it just says it’s been submitted.

    How did you take the test? I haven’t received a link to take it. I was only told that after the 4th my app from last cycle would roll on to this one meaning I’m eligible to take the CRT.

    I was told it’s very similar to WG but I’m afraid I’ve been misled…what type of questions were asked if you can remember? Also do you have record of the feedback from the test?

    No I was rejected, unfortunately. I just submitted my App so I'm thinking it is unlikely I'll get far.
