    I feel ridiculous for asking as I know people have already had ACs but is anyone still waiting to hear back BCLP post test? I applied way back in October, and I called them around a month ago - apparently they're still reviewing apps. Obviously I'm not holding my breath lol

    TW PFO. Sorry for the negativity, but I really don't think that TW's arctic shores assessment is a true or fair representation of our personalities. I scored 0 for interpersonal skills which I find hard to believe.

    Pretty much the same - that they're working on my application and that they'd have the outcome by next week. I don't know what to make of it tbh.

    Wishing Reed Smith would just put me out of my misery already :( What was the point of getting our hopes up with another holding email if it was a PFO

    Sorry if this is a silly question but I just want to be clear- since the Osborne Clarke deadline is 15/01, does that mean we have until 23:59pm that day to submit it?

    Thank you, that's reassuring. I only completed the VI last week so I'm hoping that's why they're taking their time :)

    Just sent off the Squire Patton Boggs app. For anyone else doing it, I'd recommend copying your answers in to a word document before sending it off so you can see mistakes - the text boxes on the app don't spell check. Good luck!

    Is anyone else having trouble answering the Squire Patton Boggs skills questions? The word limit (150 words!?) is so low and I don't know if it's worth bullet pointing experience or just talking about 1 thing in as much detail as possible
