    W&C WVS AC invite! But has anyone heard from Hogan Lovells post WG or know if they've sent out all AC invites already? I applied on 23/10. Feeling nervous about a PFO as it's my dream firm!

    Hi all - could someone help me clarify what my Watson Glaser deadline means? It says "Please complete the test within five days of receiving this email." The email was sent on Wednesday 1st Nov at 10am. Does "within 5 days" mean latest 10am tomorrow, Sunday (counting Wednesday as day 1) or 10am...

    Anyone else not heard back from Hogan Lovells post WG? And for the people who have - when did you hear back and when did you do the WG?

    You don't receive a feedback report on the AS test. During my telephone interview I asked for my score and they gave it to me then, but I'm sure you can email grad rec and they'll do the same.
