Got the Mayer Brown feedback pack from their test just now.

Hi! I completed mine today.

May I ask how long it took them to send the feedback reports?

Sorry to hear that news - commiserations. Did you ask for your score? Good luck with your other apps.

Does anyone know if Mayer Brown/Stephenson Harwood send out tests to applicants without reviewing applications beforehand? And how long they take to do this? I have recently submitted applications to both and still haven't received emails requesting to do the tests...

Hi
MB first test is automatic but it might take a while to receive it. I applied in November and got it in January. It was probably because they were focusing on VS app but it might still take a couple of weeks to get it.
