I'm so sorry about the rejection! May I ask when you applied?Think they’re sending out AC dates and rejections in batches. Quite a few got rejections Monday (meee). No news is good news! Keeping my fingers crossed for you

Does anyone know what the Mayer Brown tests involve and how to best prepare?
There’s a situational strengths test and verbal reasoning, not sure if it’s a watson glaser though

Rejected from CMS post-AC
It’s a document review and a situational judgement test. Also remember I did it back-to-back even though I didn’t want to, so not sure if it’s an option.
Honestly don’t think you can prepare for it
Sorry to hear this, their loss. Wishing you luck with the rest of your applications!Rejected from CMS post-AC
Go on the practice tests they send through. It is not a Watson Glaser.
SST is just a normal SST. You just rank the choices in order of what you would do/how you would feel. Not really much to practice for that. Just think how the firm expects their trainees to act.
Not sure, but I spoke to GR and they said we will have an outcome by end of Jan.

So sorry to hear that but don’t lose hope! Am I right in thinking it was your first one? Sometimes it takes time to get into the swing of things, and keep trying for your other applications! I got rejected post-AC for two schemes last cycle and it just makes you more aware of your strengths/weaknesses which can only be a positive thing for your next interviews I think.
Yeah it was my first one, and first time doing any sort of assessed case study etc so it would’ve been quite a fluke to have got it. Just hits hard when you get so far and get your hopes up haha. Hopefully I’ll get some good news from my remaining apps
Panicking because I submitted before you! Worrying that means its bad news. Well done you though
I have a feeling Skadden is working backwards (in respect to submission date) which is disappointing for me as I submitted on the 31st

Why do you say so? I've heard some people getting offers and they applied in early Dec!

Congrats! May I ask when you did the VI?
