Not so much of a written test, but checking for spelling mistakes, ambiguities and such. Then redrafting a section of text. It's not particularly hard, I just stupidly misunderstood the brief. If you have it coming up drop me a message, happy to help.

loool ngl it takes practice but I believe in you!!
Just WG/SGT - been my biggest enemy fr
Does anyone know when Dentons gets back to you after the Vi and test . I’m literally refreshing my emails every second hoping for an AC invite 😂
I love this forum but I cannot tell you how many times my heart has dropped receiving email notifications for it while expecting it to be a firm😂
I’ve managed to move from a winter scheme to a summer scheme this application cycle so I would say it never hurts to ask!
I literally use a different email app to avoid this exact pain 😂 Spam emails come through on the mail app and application emails on the outlook app!

I would expect that they don’t unfortunately, but probably worthwhile just sending them an message asking whether they do or not.

There are some scenario based question on our list here - https://www.thecorporatelawacademy.com/175-training-contract-interview-questions-2/
Hi guys, I am hoping to get some advice on how suitable of a candidate I am for a corporate or commercial TC/VS. I graduated from King's with a high 2.1 in a non-law degree in 2020 and took a year out. I then studied the GDL at BPP (achieved a high merit) and I am now completing the LPC. I have been active in a number of societies but have very minimal/no work experience. I have also never completed a VS (but I do intend to paralegal for a bit after graduating from the LPC). I have been putting off VS and direct TC applications for the last two years because of 1) fear, 2) thinking I don't have what it takes to get an offer and 3) not having enough work experience to pad out my applications.
I was just wondering if anyone could let me know what they think I can aim for as my imposter syndrome is getting the better of me. Are my prospects pretty good - could I aim for a lot of firms (i.e. American, Magic Circle, International, Silver Circle) or are some too far out of reach?
Also if anyone has a TC or has completed a VS with a similar background to me then it would be great to know your experience with applications

Thank you. Are there any sort of rules for answering these questions, or if I take a common sense approach will that be ok?
