Hey, I just checked and they are:Does anyone know the Taylor Wessing questions?
You should get an email couple hours after. But the report will give you a slight indication if you have passed. Would say stuff like “reasonably high” “very high”How/when do you find out if you passed HSF's SJT (if you do)? I've received my individual report, but nothing about any outcome/whether my application is being progressed.
Friday the time you got it. But would recommend doing it before Friday to be safe!If you got an HSF test invite on Friday at 5ish would the 7-day deadline be on this Friday or this Thursday.

I secured a TC having only had internship experience in my home country.thank you! cutting it short.. does anyone have any input on applying to a direct TC as a person with no previous vac scheme experience but have done internship? law grad
I’d personally try to find something more modern. 2010 is a very long time ago and a lot has generally changed since then.@Jessica Booker Hi Jess, I am doing a vac scheme app for Covington & Burling. There is a big case/client they represented at the supreme court in 2010. Do you think if I can discuss well why this is interesting, and linking to some of my own legal experience/demonstrating the sort of work they typically get instructed on, that will be fine? I realise it is quite dated.
I think they verify A-Levels, especially if they have a minimum grade requirement. Not sure about GCSEs though!It's been 10 years since I did my GCSEs and 8 years since I did my A levels. I currently have an LLB and LLM.
Will law firms actually look at my GCSEs/A levels and verify the accuracy of the grades listed on my application? I honestly cannot remember some of my grades.
I’m also a bit worried as my A levels are awful but I still managed to get into a top uni and do well.
Hey - it's been 14 years since I sat mine but I had to send copies of my official A Level transcript to one firm (after accepting a TC). So very much important that they are accurate.It's been 10 years since I did my GCSEs and 8 years since I did my A levels. I currently have an LLB and LLM.
