hey if anyone has done reed smith VI please message me

Hi, I did it a few weeks ago so I don't have very strong memories but from what I remember you had to be quite concise because they asked you one question with a few sub questions each time (if I am wrong anyone can correct me).

Basically you need to promise them your first born child.

Ugh, my heart sank when I got the NRF email and saw it was an Arctic Shore assessment. They're the bane of my existence.
