    Reed Smith VI!! 🥹 🥹 Finally, firms are getting back to me, which is a relief! Yesterday, I was feeling quite demotivated after dedicating so much time to those applications. I was worried that my efforts might have been in vain, especially after noticing that VIs were already being sent out.

    Any insights would be highly appreciated - please PM me as I need your help

    I got invited to do the Reed Smith test + VI today (I cried a little because I applied in December and was getting VI & WG's from other firms that I applied to afterwards) - for those who have already completed it, how was it & is it just the standard 'why & tell me a time' questions?

    Please PM if necessary, I would like to be really prepared. @axelbeugre do you have any tips please? :)

    I just gave the Addleshaw test and I am traumatised!!!!!!!!!! what even was that??? Is there anyone whose test actually went well?
    I had a read through the design of the test and its not like a standard WG, the difficulty of the test changes depending on how well you are doing, ie it gets harder if you got the previous answers correct. Don't worry about it, if you get it, well done, if you don't, onto the next firm.
