    We'll see. It's right at the top of my CV. But would be savage to negate lots of hard-earned work experience and grades, and long-crafted open text answers because of this mistake. I can only pray IA

    Did you apply at 11.58 pm on 1st Jan or 31 Dec? Well done, I applied too but just realised one capitalisation mistake - Lincoln's inn - on my CV. Considering how competitive K&E is it is likely that this mistake alone is enough to bin my app. Thoughts??

    Yes I've used this site before. It's useful in the sense it gives you more questions to test yourself rigorously but imo its too easy. Before I had done any learning of the theory behind WG I was consistently getting 80/90%. Use Job Test Prep and TCLA's course on Watson Glaser. Then use Practice...

    What is the VI? I'm applying to Kirkland & Ellis and I would love to know... Is it a critical thinking/reasoning test. Also, for Watson Glaser tests as part of vac schemes what is generally the minimum pass mark to get to the next stage? I've been practicing my Watson Glaser using TCLA and...

    How can you prepare for a SJT? I feel like it's near impossible apart from looking at their values perhaps?? Also, I'm close to submitting my Kirkland & Ellis app. Does anyone know if there is a Watson Glaser test if I'm successful with the written application form?
