Hey, no worries for asking at all... yes I’ve been invited for an interview! Best of luck for your application
Im just waiting for Travers to send a rejection, would be nice if they sent it soon ahahhaha
Hi Ria,
Grad rec got back to me and said that the ACs will be running throughout Jan/Feb
I am in the same position like I email grad recruitment on Friday and they said that they will be emailing us on Friday evening about application outcome but I think they didn't want to send out rejections on Friday evening so maybe an email will come out today.
I attended Weil's Insight Morning and Grad Rec mentioned that it was around 60%
Is anyone else applying to Gowling WLG? They have a section asking the following:
You can use this section to upload any documents that you feel are relevant to your application (e.g. references, transcripts, etc.). Please note this is not mandatory.
Would a CV be appropriate here? Should I obtain a reference and how long should it be? Should I upload both my university and GDL transcript?
Would love to know how other have tackled this!

Does anyone have any recommendations for the WG?
For some reason, I cannot seem to hack it (despite doing well in practice tests). So odd considering my degree is basically critical reasoning as its main skill.
Apart from practice tests, any good websites?

Apart from practice tests, any good websites?Does anyone know when the BCLP test needs to be completed? In my email from grad rec, they say five days from receipt of their email, but when I click on the link to do the test, it says the deadline is seven days.
I have emailed grad rec but haven't had a response, so if someone could clarify that would be great

Thank you for this as it just made me go and check! My email says five days from receipt of the email and that my deadline is Thursday 3rd Dec. I received the email on Thursday so that'd give me a week? Very confused and stressed that it needs to be done by tomorrow now!
Exactly the same for me. I was planning to prepare until the last possible day, so its annoying that my prep might be cut short now!

I think for the WGT, you need to be instinctive. I personally find all of them tips very unhelpful & confusing for me. I would read the instructions for that particular test, and answer it how you would. Try and do this on the Clifford Chance test and see what you get, it'll also tell you what your weakest parts will be.
I think there is a difference between 5 WORKING days and 5 actual days for them perhaps?
The Lawyer Portal has a nice practice test which explains the reasons why a certain answer is correct or incorrect. But also just reading the intro for each section slowly then being instinctive helps! For me when I’ve second guessed my responses it’s when I’ve not done well!Does anyone have any recommendations for the WG?

They just got back to me. The deadline is the 3rd, so it is 5 working days
