Hi, what did Skadden say is the deadline to submit the psychometric test, which is sent after submitting the application? Is it 7 days from the date of your application OR the 2nd of Dec for everyone? Would really appreciate any insight on this. Thank you!

Can you reapply to Latham if you didn't proceed post-AC? I got to the AC stage in the most recent cycle and really want to reapply

Hey I haven’t, but I reckon we’ll hear back on Monday because I remember being told that the in person day is on the 14th

Not to get into my psychology bag, but divorce can have a massive psychological impact on children/teenagers, even when it’s “smooth”. So a disruptive divorce plus A-Level exams? I’d definitely say that’s sufficient and worth flagging

Replying as one of the people, yes.

thanks guysssss xxxxxxx

Hello, does anyone know if A&O VI questions are the same as last year?

@Jaysen @Antoni Trochimowicz I’ve just stumbled across the AI application review on the new workspace (sounds very cool btw). But it says “Evaluation is currently unavailable. Please try again later” and “Answer has changed since last evaluation” when I click evaluate answer.

I’ve tried logging in and out, and still the same message. Not sure if this is a known issue or if I’m just unlucky?

I assume they’ll change them up slightly but it is supposed to be ‘motivational questions’. What were they specifically last year?
