    CMS PFO post WG. I took the test on Monday so I must’ve done really bad for them to reject me 2 days later. This test will be the end of me, why don’t I get it 😭😭 I’ve been trying so hard to understand the logic but clearly a lot of it is not clicking. Argh!

    Hey! Yes I did it last week. SJT results were mixed, but I scored highly for adaptability and intellectual curiosity. Other areas were “good” but for some I missed the boat by quite a bit so I’m not so hopeful, plus I did terribly in the VI! The questions were ok, but the problem is my delivery...

    I've applied to Mayer Brown, and read here that it takes some time to receive the tests- is it one or two? Do any have a VI section? Any tips/insights would be super appreciated!

    One day.. ONE DAY we will look back and laugh at all these struggles!! The fact that we have to donate a kidney just to get considered for an open day is actually hilarious (I say this now but you should see my face whenever I get the rejection emails lmao). I’m at work, sneaking in some uni...
