Hi guys, I just got my WG report for Linklaters Open Day and the result is not favourable (below 50%) - this is my first time doing the test and does anyone have tips on how to improve it?
I know Linklaters doest't allow us to retake WG - provided my low score, should I still apply for their...

I applied for both open day and winter vac scheme but it didn't help.
And I want to know, if I am rejected from Linklatersvacationscheme will they still invite me to their open day?

What is the difference between applying for a linklaters open day vs a vacationscheme? Is the open day to VS AC fast track for everyone that gets into the open day?
This is an amazing way to keep yourself accountable, to connect with people and inspire others so thank you so much for sharing your experience.
Good luck with your journey!
Congrats on getting a VS with HFW! 🥳
Just out of curiosity, how were you able to send almost 70 applications in a time span of 3-4 months! Absolute machine! 😯

Updating this in the spirit of accountability! For context, all of these are Spring/Summer VacationScheme, and this is my first application cycle.
Applied so far:
Slaughter and May - Rejected ❌
Allen & Overy - Rejected post VI & SJT ❌
Herbert Smith Freehills - Passed WG, waiting ⏳
