Just received an AC invite for TC at Fieldfisher! Has definitely helped restore my hope this cycle...
I got 32 right and 93rd percentile and made it to VI. 72nd percentile is still really good! They must have a high benchmark.
You have to email and ask gradrecHow do you find out your WG mark? I wasn’t invited to VI, but am interested to know!
Cheers!You have to email and ask gradrec

Did you practise for the WG? If so, and if you don’t mind me asking, what did you do to practice?
Great suggestions!! I also think it bears to mention that assumptions and evaluating arguments make up 12 questions each, whereas drawing conclusions accounts for 16. I’m not 100% sure but think inferences (true, false etc) and the more obvious ‘conclusions’ section comprise the latter. Given that this section weighs in at over a third it can sometimes skew the overall percentage so going forwards I’m going to try to focus on these sections when checking my answers. I only say this as overall I did better in one test but did worse in conclusions than usual which meant my actual overall percentage was lower. Just what I have deduced from experience but obviously try to practise all sections!! Just think it can be worth double checking these sectionsNo problem. I use jobtestprep and assessmentday.com. I subscribe to both.
Maybe a little over the top, but I like having a lot of different questions to practise with.
I also use Clifford Chance's practise test and the practise test on the Pearson Talentlens website.
I am absolutely rubbish at the true/false/might be true/could be false section, so I have made myself an "expert" in the other sections. I was only in the 62nd percentile (I think) for the Linklaters WG test though, so could have just been luck on the day.
Hey! They won’t release your individual feedback report, but you do receive your raw and percentile score (emailed yesterday about the same thing). Hope that helps!How do you find out your WG mark? I wasn’t invited to VI, but am interested to know!
Yeah, I also found it really challenging - we did our best though so nothing more we can do! Just gotta use it to improve in future apps and fingers crossed we get good news
I didn’t realise you can find out how you did on your Watson Glaser. Did you email graduate recruitment? I got through and did my video interview a few days ago but I’m not expecting anything as it went horribly.Anyone got through Bird & Bird WG to VI and know their score? I got 30/40 raw and 72 percentile and didn't make it through
Got Baker McKenzie WG to do before Friday so currently sh**ting it. Getting lots of practice in to try and do better this time!

Same! Super nervousI've been invited to an AC with DLA Piper! I'm quite nervous for it, I had two AC's last year which I didn't pass. If anyone has any advice or guidance, I would really appreciate it!
I applied to the Leeds officeWhich office did you guys apply to if you don't mind me asking? Good luck for the interview!
Has anyone heard back from DLA re: London office?
I’m still waiting to hear back. I applied to the London office as well!
