Does anyone know the word count for Baker McKenzie's SVS application questions. They don't appear on the page but I'm not sure if this is just the case for me or it's the case for everyone.

Hi everyone, for those who applied to CC last year and passed the WG, when applying again this year did you have to redo the WG?

Iirc the pass lasts for 2 years. So you won't have to do it again this year. They still send all the normal emails to you, asking you to complete the WG, but they will send on another email to you saying you already passed.

Currently sick with the plague going around London but got my OAs in. D: Hopefully they went well.

Has anybody gotten Milbank stage 2, and if so how long do they take to send it after stage 1?
