i was confused for this too cuz i thought they sent WGs first then benchmarked that, then looked at written app

Anyone have the Morgan Lewis AC recently?

 

[F99]

nope

Thanks, was starting to panic haha. When do you reckon we'll hear whether we've got to AC?

Anyone have any advice for answering the question of where a firm should open a new office?

 

[lawninja00!]

Is anyone yet to receive a WG invite for NRF? Should I just give up hope? This is my first time applying so I really don't know how these things go but I'm really really nervous. Is there any chance that I'll get a WG invite in the next week?

which firms have practice WG tests/questions on their website? I remember seeing one aside from linklaters but I can't remember which firm it was

Hogan WG should be automatic. It was for VS anyway. They were weird sending out WG for VS as well.

May this be the week we all get ACs. 🤞🏻🙏🏻

A lot of people who applied later haven’t received theirs yet. It’s not literally automatic (I received mine 3 days after submitting the application, my friend received hers 5 days after submitting) but I don’t think they review the application before sending the WG

Has anyone heard back from Paul Hastings?

They recruit on a rolling basis so I think they might just stop sending WG invites if they hit a certain threshold.

PH usually replies in September but only if you are successful.

I think it's too soon because it has only been a week and they only started reviewing the applications after 31 July.
