[QUOTE="axelbeugre, post: 150773, member: 30937"] Congratulations! Massive achievement!! In terms of general tips I would say to [LIST] [*]know the firm inside and out: be very aware of the deals, clients, practice areas they excel at and specialise in, that will give you an advantage in case you have a written case study or something along those lines. [*]be confident of your ability: you managed to get an AC, this is massive and something that not everyone can say that they have achieved so be confident that you will pass the AC! [*]be curious: if you have interviews, make sure to prepare some questions at the end for the interviewers about their journeys at the firm, this is so important as lawyers love to talk about themselves but it would also give you a chance to see if you can see yourself at the firm and working with them. [*]for a written exercise, focus on precision and writing clear sentences and structured answers: this will be quintessential as it will show your attention to detail, your writing skills and your ability to be concise. As long as you are able to focus on these things whenever you are writing, I am sure you will be fine. And remember to be professional in every answer you give! [/LIST] I hope these general tips help you, and congratulations again! [USER=30667]@ambervlaw[/USER] [/QUOTE]
