Thank you very much.Just explain how it works in comparison to A Levels. Try and show the parallel so they understand what grades correspond to A level grades or UCAS points, etc.

This is really helpful.Hey! Just to pitch in, I really don’t think it matters too much if you know a lot about the topic you get. I think what people look for in these discussions is potential and for you to just think through a commercial lens so to speak. I think it can be effective to say that a certain topic isn’t your specialist subject but always just try to vocalise your thought process to put across what you think and why. Just taking a stance is what they’re looking for and just try to pause and be thoughtful about the debate or discussion at hand. Try to preempt the sorts of things they’ll say in your prep and start maybe a spider diagram of points and arguments you can think of so that you have done some of the hard groundwork before you go in. It’s always just a case of trying your best at the end of the day and remaining calm and clear headed to allow your thoughts to flow so you can deliver these to the interviewers.
to prep: definitely read a cross section of articles from publications like the FT and the Times and practise reading them critically- what is the summary of the article (2 sentences only ideally!!!) and what is the journalist arguing? Do I agree with their point of view? Are there flaws to this argument or indeed this article? What do I think?
Then you can start fleshing out the arguments and points surrounding the discussion and think about how you’d argue your view and how it could be pushed back upon (this is what the interviewers would do)
really hope this helps and good luck!
Anyone in this forum that has actually heard back from Slaughters?
I applied back in Jan! its been a long waitI don't think so, I'm expecting to hear back sometime next week as it will be a month since I applied on Friday. If anyone is willing to take one for the team and email them if it'll be this week or next week, that would be sensational.

haha yes, I've emailed a few times because a few of my friends were rejected and they applied the same time as me, but they've said to sit tight as they were still considering my app, and they asked for my final year results last week! Who knows though, not expecting too much for this exact reason!I would definitely email them if I was you. The winter cycle closed on the 30th January, the cycle we are currently in opened on the 1st June so we can't be applying for the same cycle.

I’m confused are the winter cycles different from the summer cycles, arent we all applying for the same intake?
thank you I appreciate that!! fingers crossed for us both! let me know if you hearWell that's good news then! If you were definitely going to be rejected, you probably would have got rejected at the same time as your friends, so I'd say you have a pretty good chance, good luck!
thank you I appreciate that!! fingers crossed for us both! let me know if you hear
On average does anyone know how many AC days slaughters has? I know this is a weird question but let’s say everyone that applied before the jul 10 deadline and made it through would they all have the same AC day? Or do they just hold them constantly throughout the year since they recruit on a rolling basis
They hold it throughout and fill on a rolling basis. I got my TC offer really late (September), for example.

How long after you applied did you hear back? It has been a month now since a few of us applied and no one has heard back.
