Watson Glaser question
For deductions, for the statement to follow, it must be explicitly true. I guess cause we don’t know if Tim has any other accounts with delta bank, we don’t know 100% that he doesn’t earn interest on any of his deposits (Not completely sure on this one) For the inference I’m pretty sure it’s a...- Z48

Low 2:1 vs mid/high 2:1
I don’t think a grade in a single module will be a deciding factor, most firms require a 2.1 overall, I’ve seen very few firms say they need a 2.1 in each module. Some firms like Slaughter and May are a bit pickier with ‘strong 2.1’ but that is still for your overall grade, not module specific.- Z48

For Mayer Brown’s test they offer extra time if you request adjustments, I believe they can also consider it retrospectively if you didn’t request the adjustments before the test. I would definitely disclose your neurodiversity to firms to see what adjustments they may have- Z48

Does anyone have any advice for the Mayer Brown AC? I would really appreciate any insight as I can’t find much info about it! I got the invite like 30 mins ago and completed the job sim on 6/1 for Spring (The booking link says they’re running ACs from Feb-April btw)- Z48

Contact the willo team and explain, think there’s a question mark at the bottom of the page if you can see that. If not the email is [email protected]. I would take a screenshot for evidence. You could also email Aman, she responds quite quickly in my experience, [email protected]- Z48

The initial tests are just an SJT and VR (automatic). Then after your application has been reviewed with those test scores, you could be invited to do the job simulation which has SJT, VI and written elements- Z48

I think it’s possible, a lot of people don’t have much legal work experience as it’s hard to get. You might be underselling your experiences. Online gigs are still work experience, and content creation would be great to talk about imo as I think it’s quite a unique experience you’ve had. All...- Z48
