    Should be can’t say. I remember doing a similar question where the answer was can’t say because it is not written that interns require supervision in the passage and it could be other members of the team wearing the green badge as well Let me know ur thoughts!

    Hi, I know it’s overwhelming but I’m sure you will get there and you are definitely good enough to get a tc :). People spend more than five cycles on getting a tc, the average age of people doing a tc is apparently 26 and the firm I worked in, so many 1-3 years pqe associates told me it took...

    Hi, I was re looking at my application following your response because I thought that I missed the part where they ask for additional info about the undergrad studies as I wanted to enter info about my scholarship and placement year. I think there was only one box related to mitigating...

    I am on track for a 2:1 but my first year grades were impacted so I just mentioned my mitigating circumstances in the “additional info about your degree” box😂

    I completely understand how frustrating this is, spent one year working in a firm and they still didn’t give me honest feedback after the ac! They were trying to be “kind” and “general” but that was only “unhelpful”. But we move on and reflect on the experience and hope to get a tc elsewhere :)

    Those who applied to Watson Farley Williams, I cannot seem to find a dedicated area for mitigating circumstances? Where did you enter this info? Any insights will be super helpful :) Thanks

    For kennedys test, is there a VI element in the test? I am unsure because their email said that the test would take 1.5 hours and I’m freaking out thinking it’s gonna be like the Irwin Mitchell assessment😂

    I didn’t apply but my friend gave the VI. I can confirm that he said it was not one of the easy VIs it’s competency/strength based (those ques were still easy/basic) he said that the firm based motivational ques were hard so I think deep knowledge of firm will be more helpful. I don’t remember...

    Same, for the first time I was satisfied with my feedback report as I scored above average (and highly) in all sections (with 3 legal experiences as well). Think I wrote my app well too. Guess too much competition especially considering they don’t look at any grades so more apps and GREAT...
