Got an email from A&O yesterday which stated:

"Thank you for taking the time to apply and complete the interactive assessment. We hope that it has given you an insight into the working environment and types of situations you may encounter as a trainee lawyer at Allen & Overy.

Our team is now reviewing your application and you should expect to hear an outcome from us as soon as possible."

Does this mean I did not pass their benchmark? Last year I applied for A&O First and I remember receiving a very specific email saying that I passed the bechmark and that they were considering my application. I know it is just a small detail, but with all the nerves in the process I cannot stop thinking about it haha :')

I got this email too, and ended up getting the WVS. I don't think it means anything other than they have received your application.
