    Does anyone have any insights on what the Taylor Wessing test is actually on. The email didn’t mention anything.
    It's an amended Watson Glaser test, it does explain itself in the instructions.

    I would offer advice, however, I haven't heard back since I took it over a month ago, so my advice probably wouldn't be the best to take heed of... lol

    I have my Weil VI due soon for the vac scheme and was wondering if anyone remembers the 2 questions they got? I am incredibly nervous and particularly worried about the second qs which is a commercial awareness one. Would truly appreciate any help!

    Happy New Year everyone! Can I confirm if there are only two questions for Macfarlanes Vacation Scheme application. Also, did you find any section on the form to indicate your preference for Spring or Summer? Thank you.
    Yes, that's right and I didn't find a section to indicate my preference... I'm glad you asked this because I was lowkey panicking when I realised it just said Vac Scheme instead of Spring Vac Scheme when looking at my application on Candid.

    Hey guys, two quick questions that I'd be happy to get any advice on re: the W&C vac scheme application:
    1. I just saw that some people already got VI invites. Would it still be adviseable to send in an application?
    2. This has probably been covered on here, but the application gives a 1500 word limit for the extra-curricular activities section. Is it adviseable to use the entire word limit or should we aim for the usual 250-350 word margin?
