    Macs early morning PFO. It is sad for me so I cannot pretend to be nonchalant. I went to a NRG but I have lots of experience and put real effort into drafting. I can only assume its the test. But you know what they say about assumptions :) .... Good luck everyone.

    Is it risky to use two reasons as opposed to 3 for responding to "Why this firm"? The word limit is 300

    My understanding from GR is that your application gets reviewed after you pass. So it is automatic.
