I think it does but I am not really sure. It did last year I believe!Does anyone know whether Dentons' legal high potential assessment includes a VI section as well?

Booked it for next Wednesday, had options Tuesday through ThursdayHi - Congratulations, can you please tell us how many days you are receiving to complete the AC, or how many days till the slot from when you got the invite.
I remember seeing on the website that they would be holding interviews throughout February and March and obvs it’s towards the end of Feb now so I wouldn’t be surprised? But weird no one here has heard either way. I wonder if yoh applied nearer the deadline they would likely get back to you later as I remember reading that they would start to review applications a month before the deadline? Fingers crossed for all of us thoWhere did you hear that? I know the forum isn't the be all/end all but it seems a lot of us applied there and I haven't seen anybody talk about hearing back post-test yet.
Someone on here had an interview in JanWhere did you hear that? I know the forum isn't the be all/end all but it seems a lot of us applied there and I haven't seen anybody talk about hearing back post-test yet.
I agree that it wouldn't be surprising if there have been interviews based on the info on the website - it used to say that they review and schedule as applications come in but I'm unsure if they've changed it. I only asked because every "have u heard from withers" post here always has a bunch of dislike/disagree reactions (aside from being Very Concerned my application slipped into their junk folder, of course!).I remember seeing on the website that they would be holding interviews throughout February and March and obvs it’s towards the end of Feb now so I wouldn’t be surprised?

It maybe that there is some prep time built into the assessments, that there are gaps during the day so you aren’t doing assessments back to back, or potentially some opportunities to network with trainees.Hey all, I have my very first AC coming up and not sure what to expect in terms of how the day is organized, since it's only 2 assessments but the AC is over 5 hours long. Are there other stuff you do during an AC? Pls excuse my very elementary question lol, would love any insight on the structure of the day in general!
Also the AC I'm doing is virtual b/c I'm based outside the UK, if that changes things.
@axelbeugre would love to hear your thoughts!
I see someone just received an offer! But yes it is frustrating not knowing. When did you apply and for which scheme?I agree that it wouldn't be surprising if there have been interviews based on the info on the website - it used to say that they review and schedule as applications come in but I'm unsure if they've changed it.

Got invited to in-person interview. found out today.V&E anyone?
I think if there is little chance of you not accepting this VS over the one you already have, that you shouldn’t attend.Hi!
I would like a little advice as I am in a bit of a dilemma. I am not sure if this has been asked before.
I have already secured a VS for a firm in the summer with a firm I loved, but I have an AC coming up very soon for another firm. If I was successful at this AC, I would not be able to do both vacation schemes as they overlap by quite a few days. Ideally, I would still like to go to this one as it would be a great experience but I am becoming quite anxious about it and it is causing me quite a bit of stress preparing for it, which has got me questioning whether this AC is worth the stress if I can't even go? I want to avoid sacrificing my uni grades.
It is one of my favourite firms, but nowhere near the firm that I have secured the VS for (I have visited the offices of both firms). On their website, it says you must be available for the full dates, which does suggest that I won't have a way to do both. Is it worth emailing and asking them whether there would be?
Has anyone been in a situation like this? Would you just attend the AC anyway and just cope with the stress for a while even if it is a little pointless?
Thank you!
Yes me too, just saw this when I checked againI also got offered an interview, I can see first 2 weeks of March and then 26th March?
Early Jan for summer! I didn't realise they ran a spring but hopefully if they're getting to the stage where they're giving out places for spring they'll deal with summer soonI see someone just received an offer! But yes it is frustrating not knowing. When did you apply and for which scheme?
No one will know this but the firm in question unfortunately, as it will always vary from firm to firm.Is there any general view on how grad rec weight their decisions on AC's? I performed really well in the interview but pretty average in the written task, not bad but certainly not my best work. I wonder if generally the interview aspect is weighted heavier or if anyone has any insights about still getting a VS offer after a pretty mediocre written exercise! Any info would be great, thanks.
I just put BPP Law School with a 'graduation date' of 2027, then explained in the description (I'm penultimate year non law)Any non-law students not able to apply to Winston & Strawn? They say they accept applications from students of all degree disciplines yet the application portal requires a law school.
