    They probably changed their mind about the approach to the recruitment process once all applications came in. 🥲 They might have added a virtual AC between the online test stage and in person interview (due to getting more applications than they initially expected). 🥲 Can I ask if the test was...

    I have seen 3-4 people on the forum say they received invites to AC. Some were sent out on Tuesday and some yesterday. I imagine they are sending the AC invites out gradually. Best of luck for Covington! Hopefully we get good news soon! 🙂

    https://www.kslaw.com/pages/uk-law-students On their website, it seems to suggest there are 3 main stages: 1) submit online application, 2) AC and 3) final panel interviews. This is for the Sept 26 or Mar/Sept 27 entry. Not sure if there are other stages for their application process. It says...

    I don’t think there will be anything difficult on the test. I imagine things like basic addition, multiplication, etc. Hopefully there aren’t any formulas or complex maths questions. I haven’t done maths since GCSE’s. 🥲🥲

    I imagine the numerical reasoning questions will involve quadratic equations or the Pythagoras theorem for it to take 60 minutes. 🤣 I hope it isn’t too difficult because it sounds relatively simple. 🥲

    It will be 12 SJT questions, 5 numerical reasoning and 5 verbal reasoning questions. Paul mentioned this on the Paul, Weiss thread on TCLA a few weeks ago! 🙂 Best of luck for Paul, Weiss!

    Yeah I just sent an email to Paul so hopefully we can get confirmation before the test deadline. 🥲

    It might be because loads of people applied. In the application workshop, Paul mentioned that they were anticipating 2-3,000 applications. 🥲🥲 It could be 50% of applicants get the test. 🤷🏾‍♂️

    I hope it is otherwise I’m cooked. I might email Paul and ask because I would need adjustments if it is timed. 🥲

    For Paul, Weiss, it actually is the second stage. Paul had mentioned it during an application workshop. 🥲 Not everyone will recieve the online SJT as it is based on a spelling and grammar review of each application. After the test stage, I think applications get reviewed again but this time...

    Second this he mentioned it in the Dec open day that I attended. 🙂 They probably won’t even have a benchmark set since it’s everyone’s first time doing the test!

    Yeah I think a few of us selected both. I did it because I’m too indecisive and couldn’t decide between the two lmao. 🤣 Did it for White & Case, Ropes & Gray and a few others as well. 🥲

    I think Paul mentioned they would review applications again alongside test scores and successful applicants would be invited to interviews. 🙂🙂

    I think it’s too soon to expect a PFO because only a few people have mentioned AC invites so we can’t know for sure until we get the email! Best of luck for Covington!

    Some people got their AC invites yesterday and others got invited today so I think it’s a staggered approach and not one batch. 🥲
