Assessment centre interview- any general advice?

Do a good deed today by helping a scared non-law baby with legal concepts (and general AC prep)?
Hi all! I've got an assessment centre for Ropes & Gray coming up on March 8th. I've been moving from Scotland to England which has been very hectic and which also means I'm starting my prep right today as I was busy moving and packing before. Thus, I basically have 2 weeks to get up to speed...- hungry_for_TC

I'm at a cross-roads... should I take the (non-law) job?
In continuation to my previous thread, I've been offered a job as an Archive Assistant (12 months FTC) with Mishcon de Reya. It's a big formidable firm and a big name, however I'm unsure if it's the right step to take. I graduated in December from a (UG) Politics and International Law degree...- hungry_for_TC
