Very interesting. I am torn between probably true and insufficient data. At first I am tempted to go for probably true because the mother said the daughter was fine with it. But we do not actually know the daughter's true interpretation of the incident, only what she told the mother. Therefore...- MizM

This question is in Hogan Lovells' application: Tell us about any open days and events that you have attended in the legal sector (250 words) How on earth am I meant to tackle this!

So I completed my HSF online test yesterday at 11am. Still have not heard anything regarding the outcome. I’ve seen that people normally get confirmation of reaching the benchmark a few hours after the completion of the test. Starting to worry now. Anyone here in a similar position?- MizM

The HSF application includes the following question: Why are you interested in pursuing a career at Herbert Smith Freehills? (300 words) Does this also encapsulate the 'why law' question or should I just focus on HSF? Thank you!- MizM
