Second the suggestion for an Case study guide by [USER=36777]@Andrei Radu[/USER] !

Most case study help/guides focus on M&A (which makes sense as for many firms, it is their bread and butter) and neglect other practise areas. For instance, at my Silver circle AC, they presented two technical case studies that were focussed on their private client practise area- (one included analysing the client's current assets and in line with UK contractual laws, suggesting what would be the most tax efficient asset to sell, in order to fund a new venture)(second included advising a client how they could leave a business venture according to a strict contract).
So perhaps a post on tackling case studies as a whole, and then advice on how to approach case studies that span other practice areas as well- that would be incredibly useful!

Also, all of the ACs I've been to have included a client brief and a complex contract- I'm currently working on familiarising myself more with them, so maybe a post on complex contracts too? What to look for, common & key provisions, how to best tackle them in timed conditions and how to efficiently extrapolate the info you need that is likely to be relevant for the client?- I imagine that could be helpful for non-law students too
