    Allen & Overy SJT

    Hey! Honestly, I am not sure. I received the invite for SJT 1 minute after I submitted my application (yesterday). Then, I got an email a few minutes after saying I've passed it so I'm probably not the best person to ask. I do think some people got the email a few days after or so, but I would...

    To add to Lydia's comment, I also think we should remember that not every applicant is on this forum and I think as amazing and supportive as it is, we should not get too nervous (from each other) before we know the actual outcome. There are 4 assessment centres, so people will get invites! Once...
