I haven't done CC's Watson Glaser yet. I got 65% on a practice test today. I'm not feeling hopeful. I've already justified not passing the test owing to the firm's C score for work life balance on the Legal Cheek Junior Lawyer Survey. It's amazing how you can justify anything to yourself if you want to. This might be why I don't have a TC yet.
Hey
@Tintin06 try not to feel too disheartened. WG scores vary a lot between tests, as the difficulty levels of different tests also varies a lot. Furthermore, there is a significant chance element to this. While learning and internalizing the fine technical rules and distinctions of each test section definitely helps, you will still have many questions where you have two equally plausible options and will have to make judgement calls based on your intuition. Sometimes, you can get a lot of those right, while at other times you can get a lot of those wrong, with no other explanation besides chance.
I have seen this variation in my own results, scoring 98th percentile in some tests and not passing the benchmark in others. Also, a friend of mine who did well enough in the
Linklaters WG to get the open day invite scored under 50% in another WG practice test. Point is, you should definitely hold yourself accountable and aim to improve your skills as much as you can, but you should not let one single bad result get you down.
