Fingers crossed. I applied two days before the deadline for the DTC last year and made it to the blended assessment and was traumatised as my scores were *abysmal* hoping my improvement in the Amberjack makes a difference this year.- BealMcAlly

I feel really silly because I'd been sitting on my application for ages while practising for VIs and the Amberjack so I could be ready this year. I mostly focused my energy on going to as many events as possible before submitting VS apps, but now worried it will bite me in the tush.- BealMcAlly

Thank you for clarifying. I think what you said here also shows what sorts of firms care about what. US firms are known to care about credentials a lot, hence their really high entry requirements to begin with. Maybe your friend just looked really good on paper that they did not care. Great...- BealMcAlly

Yeah, I understood this in the end. I think what ruffled my feathers was actually the other person implying tailoring apps doesn't matter if you have the right credentials. I think the correlation between the posts probably got the better of me there.- BealMcAlly

Sorry, I think that other person saying they know an Oxford student on track for a first submitting generic apps and getting through and you then saying you are the Oxford graduate in question confused me. thanks for clarifying. I just saw red hahah- BealMcAlly

I just don't see how that is helpful when your friend has previously said you submitted generic applications and relied on your profile? Clearly other candidates who don't have a similar profile will not see the same success and will rely on other aspects of the application process, such as the...- BealMcAlly

Very interesting that you are willing to tell them how things go... Your experience is your experience and will look completely different to the next person's? Maybe consider that others have seen success by doing the complete opposite of what you have done? Not sure how and why you thought...- BealMcAlly

Honestly wouldn't overthink it. It's just a test, just make sure you understand what is being tested and how to identify it for each question and you will do better than you think.- BealMcAlly

the format is the same, the content is not as easy/simple/basic as the prep hub. I prefer the prep hub set up to be honest, I want to see all the questions in one go, rather than click through and only proceed once I'm happy with all my answers for the same passage.- BealMcAlly

Always ask if you know they are open to giving out the results.. considering not many firms provide results, it's always worth asking.- BealMcAlly
