    Does anyone know of any resources to practice case study elements of an AC? I feel like other than general commercial awareness I don't really know how to prepare for it

    But they have found that they have a higher chance because they are the ones letting them in right?
    They have found that information out restrospectively, not because they are actively thinking "we should give this person three times more chance than the next candidate".

    It is correlation that is creating this, not a direct policy that "lets" candidates have a stronger chance.

    I haven't heard back either. My gut tells me it's a PFO; I wish they would just send it already rather than dragging it out. My application status still says 'in progress' as if they haven't seen it yet, which is very annoying. Can I ask when you applied?
    I applied to FF on the deadline or day before and I am in the same position. I’m pretty sure it’ll be a PFO but I agree, wish they’d just send them ahahaha

    Hi everyone,

    How do I demonstrate my potential as a trainee in Clyde & Co's video assessment? I feel so nervous because its is my first interview. I have gotten tips like research the firm and give eye contact but I still feel a little inadequate. Please help, I don't know what to expect

    Does anyone know if you can request your WG score from DLA
    They won’t provide you with your score. I emailed them and this was their response:


    It is our policy not to reveal scores as they need to be understood in terms of the norm group we use which is different to other law firms and also it is a percentile rather than a raw score or percentage.
