    Anyone know what the chances are of obtaining a vac scheme if 1 spelling mistake is made during a written exercise at an AC? Will other candidates have made any mistakes as well? (This was 1/3 exercises btw)

    Although Baker McKenzie invited me to complete the WG test, I still haven't received the email containing the link to the test. Is this the same for anyone else? Edit: I have checked my spam, trash etc. and it still cannot be found
